le ja apni yaad bhi le ja
ab to ho gayi preet parai
o harjai
teri jafa ne sab kuch luta
meri wafa kuch kaam na aayi
o harjai

mohabbat pe meri hukumat jo hoti
to main aaj gala ghot deti
gala ghot deti
magar kya karu main mohabbat ki duniya
kisi ne banai thi kisi ne mitai
o harjai

tera naam saanso me jab tak rahega
mera dil tadapta machalta rahega
ye jalta rahega
mujhe khak karde tasalli to ho kuch
ke jisne lagai usi ne bujhai
o harjai
hua is taraf khatam mera fasana
mohabbat ke matam se khush hai zamana
khush hai zamana
maut ki doli pe main baithi hu
duniya dekhe ri shehnai
o harjai
le ja apni yaad bhi le ja
ab to ho gayi preet parai
o harjai

Take your memories, take them away, too,
Now our love is a stranger's domain.
Oh, heartbreaker,
Your cruelty plundered all I held dear,
My devotion proved utterly in vain.
Oh, heartbreaker.

If I held dominion over love's decree,
I'd strangle it with these very hands,
Choke it and set it free.
But what can I do in love's vast expanse,
Where one built and another destroyed?
Oh, heartbreaker.

While your name lingers within my breath,
My heart will forever writhe and yearn,
This fire will never find death.
Let ashes be my solace, at least,
That the one who ignited, also destroyed.
Oh, heartbreaker.

Here ends my tale, on this tragic shore,
The world rejoices at love's mournful plight,
Rejoices evermore.
Upon death's palanquin, I now sit,
The world views my wedding march's tone.
Oh, heartbreaker.
Take your memories, take them away, too,
Now our love is a stranger's domain.
Oh, heartbreaker.
