ek yaad teri hai
ek yaad teri hai mere jeene ka sahara
ek yaad teri hai

aaja aaja aaja mere sathi
mera dil dol raha hai
mera dil dol raha hai
chinta ke taraju me
mujhe tol raha hai
chinta ke taraju me
mujhe tol raha hai
kyu kar gaya sathi meri
duniya se kinara
duniya se kinara
ek yaad teri hai mere jeene ka sahara
ek yaad teri hai

rahta hai sada kyu
meri in rato me andhera
meri in rato me andhera
tum aake batate nahi kya dosh hai mera
tum aake batate nahi kya dosh hai mera
sau bar tumhe chandani rato me pukara
rato me pukara
ek yaad teri hai mere jeene ka sahara
ek yaad teri hai mere jeene ka sahara

A memory of you,
a tether to my breath,
a memory of you.

Come, oh come, my companion,
my heart, it quivers now,
my heart, it trembles now,
weighed down within the scales
of sorrow's heavy plow,
weighed down within the scales
of sorrow's shadowed brow.
Why did you, my friend,
forsake the world's embrace,
forsake the world's embrace?
A memory of you, a tether to my breath,
a memory of you.

Why does darkness linger,
in the nights I bravely keep,
in the nights I bravely keep?
You never come to tell me
the secrets I can't reap,
You never come to tell me
the secrets I can't keep.
A hundred times in moonlit nights,
I called your name to plead,
I called your name to plead.
A memory of you, a tether to my breath,
a memory of you.
A memory of you, a tether to my breath.
