shamme mazar thi na koi sau gawaar tha
tum jis pe ro rahe the wo kiska mazar tha
shamme mazar thi na koi sau gawaar tha

tadpunga umr bhar dil-e-marhum ke liye
tadpunga umr bhar dil-e-marhum ke liye
kambakht namurad ladakpan ka yaar tha
tum jis pe ro rahe the wo kiska mazar tha
shamme mazar thi na koi sau gawaar tha

jaadu hai ya tilism tumhari juban me
jaadu hai ya tilism tumhari juban me
tum jhut keh rahe the mujhe aitbaar tha
shamme mazar thi na koi sau gawaar tha

kya kya hamari sajde ki ruswaiya huyi
kya kya hamari sajde ki ruswaiya huyi
nakshe kadam kisi ka sare rehguzaar tha
tum jis pe ro rahe the wo kiska mazar tha
shamme mazar thi na koi sau gawaar tha

No lamp burned there, nor a hundred fools did weep,
Whose grave was it, for which your tears did seep?
No lamp burned there, nor a hundred fools did weep.

I'll ache forever, for that heart now gone,
I'll ache forever, for that heart now flown,
That cursed friend of youth, lost and forlorn.
Whose grave was it, for which your tears were sown?
No lamp burned there, nor a hundred fools did weep.

Is magic held within your very tongue?
Is sorcery in every word you've sung?
You lied, yet still, belief in me had clung.
No lamp burned there, nor a hundred fools did weep.

What shame did our prostrations then endure,
What ruin met the reverence we assure?
The footprints of another on the moor.
Whose grave was it, for which your tears did pour?
No lamp burned there, nor a hundred fools did weep.
