Lyrics of Tang Aa Chuke Hain Qash-Ma-Qash-E-Zindagi Se Ham - तन्ग आ चुके हैं क़श-म-क़श-ए-ज़िन्दगी से हम
tang aa chuke hai
qash-ma-qash-e-zindagi se ham
tang aa chuke hai
qash-ma-qash-e-zindagi se ham
thukaraa na de jahaan ko kahi
bedili se ham
aji janaab
khushi ke mauqe par kyaa bedili kaa raag chhedaa hu_aa hai
koi khushi kaa git sunaaiye
ham gam-zadaa hai laaye
kahaan se khushi ke git
kahaan se khushi ke git
dege wo hi jo paayege is
zindagi se ham
dege wo hi jo paayege is
zindagi se ham
ubharege ek baar
abhi dil ke walawale
abhi dil ke walawale
mana ke dab gaye hai
gam-e-zindagi se ham
mana ke dab gaye hai
gam-e-zindagi se ham
lo aaj hamane tod diyaa
lo aaj hamane tod diyaa
rishtaa-e-ummid
rishtaa-e-ummid
lo ab kabhi gilaa na
karege kisi se ham
lo ab kabhi gilaa na
karege kisi se ham
Here is an English translation of this doleful song by Sahir Ludhianvi:
I am fed up with this struggle in life;
I may not spurn this world with a dejected heart.
I am grief stricken, cannot sing songs of joy;
Can only give forth what I get from life.
Spirits in the heart will rise one time more;
Even though I am weighed down with grief.
Today, I have broken all liens with hope;
There won't be any word of complaint with anyone anymore.
