mujhko jine ki to dua sabhi dete
mujhko jine ki to dua sabhi dete
dil ki dawa nahi aata koi leke
logwa kahe mujhe jahar nahi dete
jakhmi jiya fire kaha kaha leke
mujhko jine ki to dua sabhi dete

ab ye madal ye dhun ye tarana
ab ye madal ye dhun ye tarana
mujhko lage na kuch bhi suhana
mujhko lage na kuch bhi suhana
man begana to jag hai begana
o re sajaniya bataye ye diwana
jakhmi jiya fire jakhmi jiya haye
jakhmi jiya fire kaha kaha leke
logwa kahe mujhe jahar nahi dete

sajni bin hai najar meri pyasi
sajni bin hai najar meri pyasi
us bin jaye na jiya ki udasi
us bin jaye na jiya ki udasi
ab ye jiwan gale ki hai fasi
tute fanda na nikle re jiyra
mar mar jina mera mar mar jina haye haye
mar mar jina mera haye koi dekhe
logwa kahe mujhe jahar nahi dete
dil ki dawa nahi aata koi leke
mujhko jine ki to dua sabhi dete
jakhmi jiya fire kaha kaha leke

They all bestow on me the wish to live,
They all bestow on me the wish to live,
But none arrives to mend the heart's deep ache.
They say to me, they do not offer poison,
This wounded soul, where does it wander, ache?
They all bestow on me the wish to live.

Now this drum, this tune, this melody,
Now this drum, this tune, this melody,
None of it feels sweet to me anymore,
None of it feels sweet to me anymore,
When the heart is estranged, the world is too,
O beloved, what does this madman say?
This wounded soul, wounded soul, alas,
This wounded soul, where does it wander, ache?
They say to me, they do not offer poison.

Without my love, my vision thirsts so,
Without my love, my vision thirsts so,
Without her, the heart's sorrow won't depart,
Without her, the heart's sorrow won't depart,
Now this life is a noose around my neck,
The snare won't break, my heart won't escape,
To live and die, my living and dying, alas,
To live and die, alas, let someone see,
They say to me, they do not offer poison,
But none arrives to mend the heart's deep ache,
They all bestow on me the wish to live,
This wounded soul, where does it wander, ache?
