jane kitni baar hriday se maine use pukara
jane kitni baar hriday se maine use pukara
nithur piya ke kano tak par
meri aawaj naa pahuchi
nithur piya ke kano tak par
meri aawaj naa pahuchi nithur piya

jaane kitne sawan beete
jaane kitne sawan beete
gam ke aanshu pite pite
gam ke aanshu pite pite
jo baat sajan se kahni thi
lab tak mere wo baat na pahuchi nithur piya

jane kitne dekhe sapne
jabse ruthe pritam apne
jane kitne dekhe sapne
jabse ruthe pritam apne
dhal chal umar armano ki
par sapno ki wo raat na pahuchi nithur piya

How many times, from my heart's core, I cried,
Yet to his cruel ears, my voice denied.

How many monsoons drowned in sorrow's tide,
The words I longed to speak, on my lips, they died.

How many dreams, since his cold turning away,
My years have waned, hopes fading day by day,
Yet that dream-night of bliss, never found its way.
