meri dasta mujhe hi mera dil suna ke roye
kabhi roke muskuraye kabhi muskurake roye
meri dasta mujhe hi

mile gum se apne fursat to mai hal puchu iska
mile gum se apne fursat to mai hal puchu iska
sha-be-gum se koi kah de kahi aur ja ke roye
meri dasta mujhe hi mera dil suna ke roye
kabhi roke muskuraye kabhi muskurake roye
meri dasta mujhe hi

hame wasta tadap se hame kam aasuo se
hame wasta tadap se hame kam aasuo se
tujhe yaad karke roye ya tujhe bhula ke roye
meri dasta mujhe hi mera dil suna ke roye
kabhi roke muskuraye kabhi muskurake roye
meri dasta mujhe hi

wo jo aazma rahe the meri bekarario ko
wo jo aazma rahe the meri bekarario ko
mere sath-sath wo bhi mujhe aazma ke roye
meri dasta mujhe hi mera dil suna ke roye
kabhi roke muskuraye kabhi muskurake roye
meri dasta mujhe hi

My tale, to me, my heart narrates in tears,
Sometimes weeping, smiles bloom, then smiles, through tears.
My tale, to me.

If respite comes from sorrows I embrace,
To ask its state, I'd find a moment's grace.
To night of grief, a whisper: "Seek another place."
My tale, to me, my heart narrates in tears,
Sometimes weeping, smiles bloom, then smiles, through tears.
My tale, to me.

We're bound to yearning, tears our daily bread,
We are bound to yearning, tears our daily bread.
Remembering you, we weep, or you, forgot instead?
My tale, to me, my heart narrates in tears,
Sometimes weeping, smiles bloom, then smiles, through tears.
My tale, to me.

They who tested my unrest's deep core,
They who tested my unrest's deep core,
With me, they too, were tested, and did pour.
My tale, to me, my heart narrates in tears,
Sometimes weeping, smiles bloom, then smiles, through tears.
My tale, to me.
