muhabbat ke jhuthe, saharo ne luta
chaman ko chaman ki, baharo ne luta
muhabbat ke jhuthe

charag andhiyon me, jalaye to kaise
charag andhiyon me, jalaye to kaise, jalaye to kaise
hamari nazar ko, nazaro ne luuta
chaman ko chaman ki, baharo ne luta

vo jhuthi kasam, vo vafao ke vade
vo jhuthi kasam, vo vafao ke vade, vafao ke vade
hamen manzilon ke, isharo ne luta
hamen manzilon ke, isharo ne luta

muqaddar se koi, shikayat kare kya
muqaddar se koi, shikayat kare kya, shikayat kare kya
hame jagmagate, sitaro ne luta
chaman ko chaman ki, baharo ne luta
muhabbat ke jhuthe, saharo ne luta

False comforts of love, they plundered all,
The bloom of the garden, by the garden's thrall.
False comforts of love.

How can a lamp, in the tempest, hold its flame?
How can a lamp, in the tempest, sustain its name, sustain its name?
Our vision, alas, by the sights, was tamed.
The bloom of the garden, by the garden's claim.

Those vows, untrue, those promises to keep,
Those vows, untrue, those promises that sleep, those promises that sleep,
By beckoning paths, our souls did weep.
By beckoning paths, our souls did weep.

What complaint can we lodge, against fate's design?
What complaint can we lodge, against fate's divine, against fate's divine?
By the stars that shimmer, our hearts did decline.
The bloom of the garden, by the garden's shrine.
False comforts of love, they plundered all.
