yaad me teri jaag-jaag ke ham
raat bhar karavate badalate hai
har ghadi dil me teri ulfat ke
dhime dhime chiraag jalate hai

jabase tune nigaah pheri hai
din hai sunaa to raat adheri hai
chaand bhi ab najar nahi ata
ab sitaare bhi kam nikalate hai
yaad me teri jaag-jaag ke ham

lut gayi vo bahaar ki mahafil
chhut gayi hamase pyaar ki mazil
zindagi ki udaas raho me
teri yaado ke sath chalate hai
yaad me teri jaag-jaag ke ham

tujhako paakar hame bahaar mili
tujhase chhutakar magar ye baat khuli
baagabaan hi chaman ke phulo ko
apane pairo se khud masalate hai
yaad me teri jaag-jaag ke ham

kya kahe tujhase kyu hui duri
ham samajhate hai apani majaburi
tujhako maalum kya ke tere liye
dil ke gam aansuo me dhalate hai
yaad me teri jaag-jaag ke ham

In your memory, I wake and wake,
The long night, turning, I remake.
Each moment, in my heart's deep core,
Faint lamps of love forever pour.

Since your gaze turned away from mine,
The day is void, the night's a shrine
Of shadows. Moon, no longer seen,
Fewer stars now intervene.
In your memory, I wake and wake...

Lost is the spring's grand, joyous fête,
Lost is love's destined, longed-for state.
On life's sad paths, so desolate,
With your remembrance, I create.
In your memory, I wake and wake...

With you, a spring's own bloom I knew,
But parting, unveiled a truth anew:
The gardener treads, with callous heel,
Upon the flowers, how they feel.
In your memory, I wake and wake...

How to speak of why we're apart?
I understand my broken heart.
Do you know, for you alone,
My heart's grief in tears is sown?
In your memory, I wake and wake...
