toota sitara neel gagan se
toota sitara neel gagan se
badal gayi taqdeer
tera koi nahi ho tera koi nahi
toota sitara neel gagan se
badal gayi taqdeer
tera koi nahi ho tera koi nahi

par khuda tu saya thi ki
pragati thi ek man me
in toofan se hi kas nirasha
aani haye jiwan me
ab kaun ab kaun bandhaye teer
tera koi nahi ho tera koi nahi

bikhar gaye mana ke moti bikhar gaye
bikhar gaye mana ke moti
lut gayi naino ki doli
putra viyog me maa ki
mamta sar gun gun ke roti
kyu bhare nain mein neer
tera koi nahi ho tera koi nahi

kyu hima raha hai bhagya sitara
kamp raha hai tribhuvan sara
mruntyujay ka baja na bara
rok rok hai bhagya vidhata
tali huyi taqdeer tali huyi taqdeer

A fallen star from the azure night,
A fallen star, and fate takes flight.
You are alone, utterly bereft, alone,
A fallen star from the azure night,
And destiny's changed, its course misspent.
You are alone, utterly bereft, alone.

Yet, God, you were the shadow's keep,
Progress a thought within the deep.
From these storms, this crushing despair,
Arrived, alas, life's heavy snare.
Who now, who now, will shoot the dart?
You are alone, utterly bereft, alone.

The heart's pearls shattered, scattered wide,
The heart's pearls, nowhere to hide.
The eyes' palanquin, now robbed of grace,
A mother's grief, a vacant space.
Her love, a song of tears, untold,
Why floods the eye, a story cold?
You are alone, utterly bereft, alone.

Why does fate's star in frost remain?
The trembling cosmos feels the pain.
The death-bell sounds, the dirge begins,
The fate-maker holds, and then he wins.
Your destiny's etched, your destiny's sealed.
