yaad na aa, yaad na aa
yaad na aa, gujre zamane yaad na aa
yaad na aa, gujre zamane yaad na aa

ek soch si hai jee me
kya hoga zindagi me
ek soch si hai jee me
kya hoga zindagi me
yu hi kategi shayaad hasrat me, bebasi me
yu hi kategi shayaad hasrat me, bebasi me

jine na diya dunia ne
jine na diya dunia ne
kya mujhse kiya dunia ne
kya mujhse kiya dunia ne
yaad na aa
yaad na aa, gujre zamane yaad na aa

bekaif jawani hai
bekaif jawani hai
ul-dard kahani hai
bekaif jawani hai
ur dard kahani hai
afsana mohabbat ka
ashko ki jubani hai
jine na diya dunia ne
kya mujhse kiya dunia ne
yaad na aa
yaad na aa, gujre zamane yaad na aa
yaad na aa, gujre zamane yaad na aa

Forget me not, forget me not,
Forget me not, of bygone days, forget me not.
Forget me not, of bygone days, forget me not.

A thought resides within my soul,
What fate will life behold?
A thought resides within my soul,
What fate will life behold?
Perhaps it will wither in longing, in helplessness,
Perhaps it will wither in longing, in helplessness.

The world would not let me live,
The world would not let me live,
What has the world done to me?
What has the world done to me?
Forget me not.
Forget me not, of bygone days, forget me not.

Joyless youth, a bitter sting,
Joyless youth, a bitter sting,
A tale of tangled suffering,
Joyless youth, a bitter sting,
A tale of tangled suffering,
A romance, a whispered dream,
Told in tears, a silent stream.
The world would not let me live,
What has the world done to me?
Forget me not.
Forget me not, of bygone days, forget me not.
Forget me not, of bygone days, forget me not.
