mere liye wo gam-e-intezar chhod gaye
mere liye wo gam-e-intezar chhod gaye
gaye to ek anokhi bahar chhod gaye
gaye to ek anokhi bahar chhod gaye

hazaar kuch ho mera dil palat nahi sakta
hazaar kuch ho mera dil palat nahi sakta
unhi ke honth mujhe bekarar chhod gaye
unhi ke honth mujhe bekarar chhod gaye

isi khayal se kanpa kiya tha dil mera
isi khayal se kanpa kiya tha dil mera
yahi hua ke wo anjam-e-kaaj chhod gaye
yahi hua ke wo anjam-e-kaaj chhod gaye

mujhe ye gam hai ki meri zaba ne kuch na kaha
mujhe ye gam hai ki meri zaba ne kuch na kaha
unhe kahe sune diwana baag chhod gaye
unhe kahe sune diwana baag chhod gaye
mere liye wo gam-e-intezar chhod gaye

They left for me the ache of longing's keep,
A sorrow sown, where silent shadows sleep.
They left for me a spring, a bloom unseen,
Departing, left a vibrant, verdant scene.

Though worlds may shift, my heart cannot retrace,
Its path, the longing etched upon its face.
Their lips, they left me restless, wanting more,
The echoes of their touch forever soar.

This thought, it trembled, shook my very core,
And brought the ending I had known before.
The final act, the purpose left behind,
The echoes of their loss within my mind.

This grief I bear, that silence held my tongue,
My words unsaid, the melodies unsung.
They left, unheard, a lover's wild domain,
They left for me the ache of longing's pain.
