tamannaa-e-pareshaa-dil ne phir tumako pukaaraa hai
zaraa aakar to dekho haal-e-dil ye dil tumhaaraa hai
bhalaa aaun to kaise jite ji duniyaa ne maaraa hai
jahaan vaalo ke aage kyaa karun dil besahaaraa hai
tamannaa-e-pareshaa

sitaare meri haalat dekh ke chupachaap rote hai
dekh ke chupachaap rote hai
yahi raato kaa aalam aur yahi din kaa nazaaraa hai
tamannaa-e-pareshaa

mujhe tum bhul jaao khvaab to tutaa hi karate hai
mujhe tum bhul jaao khvaab to tutaa hi karate hai
khvaab to tutaa hi karate hai
sivaa mere jahaan me aaj bhi sab kuchh tumhaaraa hai
tamannaa-e-pareshaa

raho chaahe jahaan bhi dil se tum jaane na paaoge
dil se tum jaane na paaoge
bhalaa ho is jahaa kaa har koi dushman hamaaraa hai
bhalaa ho is jahaa kaa
har koi dushman hamaaraa hai

The heart, a tangled wish, calls out your name again,
Come, and witness now, this heart, forever yours to claim.
But how can I, when life itself has struck me down?
My helpless heart, before a world that wears a frown.
A tangled wish.

The stars, they weep in silence, watching my despair,
They weep in silence, watching, and the nights remain,
And days repeat, a constant, weary stare.
A tangled wish.

Forget me, love, for dreams are born to break and fade,
Forget me, love, for dreams are born to fade away,
For dreams are born to fade away.
Yet still, in all this world, everything is yours to hold, to sway.
A tangled wish.

No matter where you wander, from my heart you'll never flee,
From my heart you'll never flee.
The world itself, it seems, has turned against me, bitterly.
The world itself, against me.
Each soul a foe, eternally.
