ruthna hai agar meri jane jigar o
ruthna hai agar meri jane jigar
iss se bahter hai mujhko tu de de zahar
teri hai ik adaa ye to hun mai fida
gar sada hai to tutegi banke kahar

o ye to zulm hai dilo jaan par
kardo rahmo karam mere armano par
o ye to zulm hai dilo jaan par
kardo rahmo karam mere armano par
sath le lo mujhko o mere hamsafar
yu bhatakta firunga mai o darbadar

o tumko sau sau janam tak manauga mai
mujhko kasam hai ab na sataunga mai
tumko sau sau janam tak manauga mai
mujhko kasam hai ab na sataunga mai
hai guzarish meri kar lu dil me basera
yaad karta rahu tumko sham-o-sahar

mana na na mujhe maan jaungi mai
o mana na na mujhe maan jaungi mai
aise zid na karo aie mere hamsafar
teri hai ik adaa ye to hun mai fida
gar sada hai to tutegi banke kahar

If you must depart, my heart's own light,
If you must depart, my soul's delight,
Better to poison my weary frame,
Than to bear the sting of your fading flame.
Your every grace, I hold it dear,
But a broken vow, a rising fear.

Oh, this cruelty upon heart and soul,
Show mercy now, and make me whole.
Oh, this cruelty upon heart and soul,
Show mercy now, and make me whole.
Take me with you, my journey's end,
Or I'll wander lost, a broken friend.

A hundred lifetimes, I'll plead and pray,
By my own soul, I'll not stray.
A hundred lifetimes, I'll plead and pray,
By my own soul, I'll not stray.
I beg you now, let me dwell within,
Remembering you, where day begins.

No, no, I'll yield, I'll understand,
No, no, I'll yield, take my hand.
Don't be so stubborn, my guiding star,
Your every grace, I hold it dear,
But a broken vow, a rising fear.
