kisi tarah dil hi na jab chain paye
kisi tarah dil hi na jab chain paye
kaho kaise aankho mein aansu na aaye
kaho kaise aankho mein aansu na aaye
kisi tarah dil hi na jab chain paye
tamnna man mein kalsh hai jigar mein
tamnna man mein kalsh hai jigar mein
magar ab hame koi kyu yaad aaye
magar ab hame koi kyu yaad aaye
kisi tarah dil hi na jab chain paye

basar sham gam mein hi hoti hai apni
basar sham gam mein hi hoti hai apni
meri jindagi mein sanwera na aaye
meri jindagi mein sanwera na aaye
kisi tarah dil hi na jab chain paye
nahi rah gaya dil jamane ke kabil
nahi rah gaya dil jamane ke kabil
kaho ab jamana mujhe bhul jaye
kaho ab jamana mujhe bhul jaye
kisi tarah dil hi na jab chain paye

When peace deserts the heart's deep core,
When solace flees and knocks no more,
How can the eyes refrain from tears?
How can the eyes suppress their fears?
When peace deserts the heart's deep core.

Desire, a vessel in the soul's deep keep,
A longing now, buried so deep,
But why should anyone recall?
Why should anyone heed my call?
When peace deserts the heart's deep core.

My evenings dwell in sorrow's shade,
My life, a dawn that will not cascade,
No sunrise graces my despair.
No morning light to banish care.
When peace deserts the heart's deep core.

My heart, no longer fit to roam,
To wander in this earthly home,
Let the world now forget my name,
Let time erase my fading fame.
When peace deserts the heart's deep core.
