gamzaa paikaan hua jataa hai
gamzaa paikaan hua jataa hai
dil ka armaan hua jataa hai

dekh kar uljhi hui zulf unki
dil pareshan hua jataa hai
gamzaa paikaan hua jataa hai

teri vahshat ki badaulat e dil
teri vahshat ki badaulat e dil
ghar biyabaan hua jata hai
hay ghar biyabaan hua jata hai

saaz o sama ka na hona hi mujhe
saaz o sama ka na hona hi mujhe
saaz o sama ka na hona hi mujhe
gamzaa paikaan hua jataa hai

dil se jaate hai mere sabr o qaraar
dil se jaate hai mere sabr o qaraar
dil se jaate hai mere sabr o qaraar
ghar ye viraan hua jaata hai
gamzaa paikaan hua jataa hai

dil ki rag rag me samaa kar bedam
dil ki rag rag me samaa kar bedam
dard to jaan hua jataa hai
dard to jaan hua jataa hai
gamzaa paikaan hua jataa hai

A sorrow's message, it unfolds,
A sorrow's message, takes hold.
The heart's desire, it fades away,
Gazing on tresses, in disarray,
The heart distraught, it goes astray.
A sorrow's message, it unfolds.

By your longing, oh my heart,
By your longing, torn apart,
The home, a desert, now appears,
Alas, a wasteland, filled with fears.
The absence of music, near and far,
The absence of music, leaves its scar,
A sorrow's message, it unfolds.

From my heart, patience and peace depart,
From my heart, they tear apart,
From my heart, they bleed and cease,
This home, a desert, finds no release.
A sorrow's message, it unfolds.
In the heart's veins, it finds its place,
In the heart's veins, leaving its trace,
The pain itself, a life it gains,
The pain itself, forever reigns.
A sorrow's message, it unfolds.
