jaach mainu aa gayi gham khaan di
jaach mainu aa gayi gham khaan di
haule haule ro ke jee barchan di
jaach mainu aa gayi

changa hoya tu paraya ho gayo
changa hoya tu paraya ho gayo
muk gayi chinta tainu apnan di
haule haule ro ke jee barchan di
jaach mainu aa gayi

marte jaan par dar hai damma waliyo
marte jaan par dar hai damma waliyo
dhart wi bikdi hai mulh sham shan di
jaach mainu aa gayi

na karo shiv di udassi da ilaaj
na karo shiv di udassi da ilaaj
rone di marji hai aaj beyman di
haule haule ro ke jee barchan di
jaach mainu aa gayi gham khaan di

I've learned the art of grief's embrace,
I've learned the art of grief's embrace,
To softly weep, and find my space,
I've learned the art.

It's good you left, became estranged,
It's good you left, became estranged,
The worry of holding you, no longer arranged.
To softly weep, and find my space,
I've learned the art.

Even in death, I fear the breath,
Even in death, I fear the breath,
For even earth sells the funeral wreath.
I've learned the art.

Don't cure Shiva's desolate plight,
Don't cure Shiva's desolate plight,
My heart desires to weep tonight,
To softly weep, and find my space,
I've learned the art of grief's embrace.
