salam tujhko ae duniya ab aakhari hai salam
salam tujhko ae duniya ab aakhari hai salam
chhalakne wala hai ab meri zindagi ka jaam
ab aakhari hai salam
salam tujhko ae duniya

har ek aansu batata hai khun dil ka hua
khun dil ka hua
har ek aah sunati hai maut ka paigam
ab aakhari hai salam
salam tujhko ae duniya

har ek hichki ki hai nashtar har ek saans hai teer
har ek saans hai teer
hua hai chupke hi chupke jigar ka kaam tamam
ab aakhari hai salam
salam tujhko ae duniya

udhar jo shama jali to idhar patanga jala
idhar patanga jala
hai diljalo ki mohabbat ka ek hi anjam
ab aakhari hai salam
salam tujhko ae duniya

Farewell, O world, a final salutation,
Farewell, O world, the last I give to you.
My life's cup overflows, its final libation,
The last farewell, it's true.
Farewell, O world.

Each tear reveals the heart's own blood spilled,
The heart's blood spilled.
Each sigh proclaims death's secret, whispered, willed,
The last farewell is told.
Farewell, O world.

Each sob, a blade; each breath, a piercing dart,
Each breath, a dart.
Silently, secretly, shattered is the heart,
The last farewell, apart.
Farewell, O world.

Where the candle burns, there the moth is consumed,
There the moth is consumed.
The lovers' flame, by fate, is darkly doomed,
The last farewell, entombed.
Farewell, O world.
