ishk da rog na lave koi
ae di aag hadda nu khaawe
manjur miya chahe maut aa jave
par dil na kisi te aave

karib uske main kabhi na ja saka
dil se chaha tha jise use na pa saka
ishk mein usne mujhe dard itna diya
main bana jogiya main bana jogiya
main bana jogiya main bana jogiya
main bana jogiya main bana jogiya
main bana jogiya main bana jogiya
main bana jogiya main bana jogiya

thokar khaya dard hi paya, tere aitbar me
kitni khushiya kitne armaa
jal gaye tere pyaar me
rab se dil fariyad kare
tera jahan aabad rahe
tu khush rahe sada, ye hai meri dua
main bana jogiya, main bana jogiya
main bana jogiya, main bana jogiya

Let no one invite love's disease,
For this fire devours the very bones.
Though death itself be embraced,
Let the heart not fall for another.

Never could I draw near to her,
Though with my heart, I yearned.
In love, she gave me such pain,
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.

I stumbled, finding only pain, in your faith,
How many joys, how many hopes,
Burned in your love's pyre.
My heart pleads with the Divine,
May your world ever flourish.
May you always be happy, this is my prayer,
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.
I became a hermit, I became a hermit.
