lo aa gayi unki yaad, wo nahi aaye
lo aa gayi unki yaad, wo nahi aaye

dil unko dhundhta hai, gam kaa singaar kar ke
aankhe bhi thak gayi hai, ab intajaar kar ke
aankhe bhi thak gayi hai, ab intajaar kar ke
ek aas rah gayi hai, wo bhi naa tut jaaye
lo aa gayi unki yaad, wo nahi aaye

roti hain aaj hum par, tanahaiya humaari
roti hain aaj hum par, tanahaiya humaari
wo bhi na paaye shaayad, parchhaiya humaari
badhate hi jaa rahe hai, maayusiyo ke saaye
lo aa gayi unki yaad, wo nahi aaye

lau tharathara rahi hai, ab sham-e-jindagi ki
ujadi huyi mohabbat, mehamaan hai do ghadi ke
ujadi huyi mohabbat, mehamaan hai do ghadi ke
mar kar hi ab milenge, ji kar to mil na paaye
lo aa gayi unki yaad, wo nahi aaye
lo aa gayi unki yaad, wo nahi aaye

The memory returns, they do not.
The memory returns, they do not.

The heart still searches, adorned with grief,
And eyes, they're weary, with waiting's thief.
And eyes, they're weary, with waiting's thief.
One hope remains, lest it break and sever,
The memory returns, they do not.

Loneliness weeps, surrounding us this day,
Loneliness weeps, surrounding us this day.
Perhaps they cannot find our shadows' sway.
The shadows of despair, they lengthen and loom,
The memory returns, they do not.

The flame now shivers, of love's dying light,
Desolate love, a fleeting, brief delight.
Desolate love, a fleeting, brief delight.
Only in death shall we meet, and never in life's keep,
The memory returns, they do not.
The memory returns, they do not.
