uljhan dil ki kya suljhe
jab kaha na jaye raz dil ka kaha na jaye raz
uljhan dil ki kya suljhe
jab kaha na jaye raz dil ka kaha na jaye raz

kuch kahna chahe kah na sake
chup rahna chahe rah na sake
aake zuba par kaanp rahi hai
ye kaisi aawaz dil ki ye kaisi aawaz

chup rehne se jee ghabraye
kehne se dil par ban jaye
kisko gum aur kaam uthaye
kisko gum aur kaam uthaye
ye kaisa andaz haye ye kaisa andaz
uljhan dil ki kya suljhe
jab kaha na jaye raz dil ka kaha na jaye raz

How can the heart's knots unravel,
When the soul's secret remains unspoken,
When the heart's secret remains unspoken?

Wanting to speak, yet unable,
Wanting silence, but unable to keep,
Trembling on the tongue,
What is this sound of the heart, what is this sound?

Silence suffocates the spirit,
Speech burdens the heart,
Whose grief to embrace, whose task to take?
Whose grief to embrace, whose task to take?
What is this plight, oh, what is this plight?
How can the heart's knots unravel,
When the soul's secret remains unspoken,
When the heart's secret remains unspoken?
