tanha mai akela tuta tara koi
aasman mera meri zamin manzil khoi khoi
tanha mai akela tuta tara koi
aasma mera meri zamin manzil khoi khoi
diwana hu magar fir bhi hai yakin
hasino ki jo pasand mai hu wo hasi
aasman mera meri zamin manzil khoi khoi
tanha mai akela tuta tara koi

pehlu me mere mastiyan shokhiya or bijliyan
marti hai aji mujh par bag ki sari titliyan
mahfil me jadu bhare naino ki athkheliyan
aakara mujhko ghere hai anjani ye saheliyan
lo mera nam lo hotho se kam lo
sapne mere jage jage yade soyi soyi
tanha mai akela tuta tara koi

koi sune na sune meri apni sada
koi dekhe na dekhe husan ki apni ada
hirni jaisi aankhe hai, chal me hai ek nasha
dhadkan daud rahi hai kyu kya hua mujhko bhala
kya tuhje yad hai jo mujhe yad hai
nazro me hai ek halki si surat si khoi khoi
tanha mai akela tuta tara koi
aasma mera meri zamin manzil khoi khoi
diwana hu magar fir bhi hai yakin
hasino ki jo pasand mai hu wo hasi
aasma mera meri zamin manzil khoi khoi
tanha mai akela tuta tara koi

A solitary star, broken and cast,
My sky, my earth, a lost, veiled past.
A solitary star, broken and cast,
My sky, my earth, a lost, veiled past.
A madman, yes, but faith still burns,
The fairest of beauties, my heart yearns.
My sky, my earth, a lost, veiled past.
A solitary star, broken and cast.

Beside me, wild joys, mischief's bright gleam,
And lightning's touch, a waking dream.
On me, all butterflies, their final scream,
In the crowd, playful eyes, a bewitching scheme.
Enigmatic shadows, they gather near,
Whisper my name, let my spirit appear.
My dreams awakened, memories in slumber deep,
A solitary star, secrets to keep.

Whether they hear, or turn away their ear,
My own voice rings, banishing all fear.
Whether they see, or fail to hold me dear,
My beauty shines, banishing all tear.
Like a doe's eyes, a gait with its own command,
My heart races, I cannot understand.
Do you recall, what I remember so dear?
A faint image, in lost eyes, so clear.
A solitary star, broken and cast,
My sky, my earth, a lost, veiled past.
A madman, yes, but faith still burns,
The fairest of beauties, my heart yearns.
My sky, my earth, a lost, veiled past.
A solitary star, broken and cast.
