ye raat bhi ja rahi hai
ke gam ki ghata chha rahi hai
mere humdam tu nahi aaya
ye raat bhi ja rahi hai
ja rahi hai, ja rahi hai

nahi jis taraf koi manjil usi raah pe chal rahi hu
teri yaad me o sitamgar sama ki tarah jal rahi hu
teri yaad me o sitamgar sama ki tarah jal rahi hu
jal rahi hu
sama bujhi ja rahi hai
mere humdam tu nahi aaya

huyi dushmani aasma ki mohabbat ki har daasta ki
kahin ye na ho ke tu aaye chale jaye hum is jahan se
is jahan se
hotho pe ja rahi hai
mere humdam tu nahi aaya
ye raat bhi ja rahi hai
ja rahi hai, ja rahi hai

The night departs, a somber hue descends,
A cloud of sorrow, softly it extends.
My dearest, you are absent from my side,
This very night, it gently does subside.
It fades away, it fades away and goes.

Where no horizon waits, I tread alone,
Upon that path, my weary steps are thrown.
In memory of you, my cruel tormentor,
A candle's flame, I flicker, burn, and enter
The fiery dance, I burn.
The candle dims, its final embers glow,
My dearest, you are absent from the flow.

The sky itself, in hatred, turns its face,
At love's sweet tales, in every time and place.
Lest you should come, as breath within me sighs,
And I depart, from under these same skies.
From this world's embrace.
Upon my lips, life's final moments keep,
My dearest, you are absent in my sleep.
The night departs, its shadows start to flee,
It fades away, it fades away from me.
