hamane jafaa na sikhi, unako vafaa na aai
patthar se dil lagaayaa, aur dil ne chot khaai

apane hi dil ke haatho, barabaad ho gae ham
kisase kare shikaayat, ab kisako de duhaai

duniyaa banaane vaale, mai tujhase puchhataa hun
kyaa pyaar kaa jahaan me, badalaa hai bevafaai

We learned no cruelty, they knew no faith,
A heart of stone we chose, a wound our fate.

By our own hearts betrayed, we met our end,
To whom to turn, on whom can we depend?

Creator of the world, I ask of Thee,
In love's domain, is faith now treachery?
