raat ke pichhale paharo me
tum kya jano ham kyo roye
raat ke pichhale paharo me
tum kya jano ham kyo roye
raat ke pichhale

aansu na thame, dukh so na saka
aansu na thame, dukh so na saka
thak haar ke taare bhi soye
raat ke pichhale paharo me

biraha ki ghataaye aisi uthi
biraha ki ghataaye aisi uthi
bin garje badal baras gaye
aise ghanaghor andhero me
hamane kitne moti khoye
raat ke pichhale paharo me

bedardi tum kya samajhoge
bedardi tum kya samajhoge
kya biti thi apne dil par
jab aag bhari barasato me
ankho ne angare boye
raat ke pichhale paharo me
tum kya jano ham kyo roye
raat ke pichhale paharo me

In the veiled hours of night,
Do you grasp why my spirit wept?
In the veiled hours of night.

Tears unstopped, sorrow found no rest,
Tears unstopped, sorrow found no rest,
And weary stars finally slept.
In the veiled hours of night.

Storm clouds gathered, a tempest's breath,
Storm clouds gathered, a tempest's breath,
Silent tears the heavens wept,
In these shadows, dark and deep,
How many pearls did my soul lose?
In the veiled hours of night.

Merciless heart, you cannot know,
Merciless heart, you cannot know,
What wounds my heart had to bear,
When fire rained from the skies above,
My eyes sowed embers of despair.
In the veiled hours of night,
Do you grasp why my spirit wept?
In the veiled hours of night.
