hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
rah ki dhul the aasma pe la bithaya
hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
ho aisa na kahna aise na kahna
aise na kahna tu hi to hai meri kismat ka sitara
ye dunia hai tufa ek tu hi kinara
tere hi liye to jina hai gawara
hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
rah ki dhul the aasma pe la bithaya

bin chlaye chale aankh to teri wo teer hai
kaid karle jo dil julf teri wo janjir hai
bin chlaye chale aankh to teri wo teer hai
kaid karle jo dil julf teri wo janjir hai
tu azanta ke yowan ki taswir hai
naya ranjha hu mai tu nayi heer hai
hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
rah ki dhul the aasma pe la bithaya
ho aisa na kahna aise na kahna
aise na kahna tu hi to hai meri kismat ka sahara
ye dunia hai tufa ek tu hi kinara
tere hi liye to jina hai gawara
hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
rah ki dhul the aasma pe la bithaya

maine har phul ke hath bheja hai tujhko salam
patte patte pe sanam maine likha hai dil ka paigam
maine har phul ke hath bheja hai tujhko salam
patte patte pe sanam maine likha hai dil ka paigam
meri har sans par bas tera nam hai
teri takdir pe mera anzam hai
hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
rah ki dhul the aasma pe la bithaya
ho aisa na kahna aise na kahna
aise na kahna sanam tu hi to hai meri kismat ka sahara
ye dunia hai tufa ek tu hi kinara
tere hi liye to jina hai gawara
hum sanam kuch na the dil me tune hame basaya
rah ki dhul the aasma pe la bithaya

In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did dwell,
Dust of the path, to heavens you did compel.
In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did dwell,
Oh, never say, no, never say,
Never say, you are the star that marks my fate,
This world, a storm, you, the shore that waits,
For you alone, I find it sweet to live,
In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did give,
Dust of the path, to heavens you did weave.

Unbidden, your eyes, an arrow's flight,
Your tresses, chains that bind the heart in night,
Unbidden, your eyes, an arrow's light,
Your tresses, chains that bind the heart so deep,
You, the Ajanta's youth, a vision to keep,
I, a new Ranjha, you, a Heera to reap,
In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did sleep,
Dust of the path, to heavens you did leap.
Oh, never say, no, never say,
Never say, you are the star that marks my fate,
This world, a storm, you, the shore that waits,
For you alone, I find it sweet to live,
In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did give,
Dust of the path, to heavens you did weave.

To every bloom, a greeting sent your way,
On every leaf, my heart's words now lay,
To every bloom, a greeting sent your way,
On every leaf, my heart's words now did say,
On every breath, your name, a sacred sway,
Your destiny, my fate, I now obey,
In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did play,
Dust of the path, to heavens you did sway.
Oh, never say, no, never say,
Never say, you are the star that marks my fate,
This world, a storm, you, the shore that waits,
For you alone, I find it sweet to live,
In the heart, a void, then you, my love, did give,
Dust of the path, to heavens you did weave.
