yeh afsana nahi jalim mere dil ki hakikat hai
mujhe tumse mohabbat hai, mujhe tumse mohabbat hai
yeh afsana nahi jalim mere dil ki hakikat hai

lagi hai aag sine me nahi kuchh lutf jine me
najar kuchh kah nahi sakti, kahe bin rah nahi sakti
tumhe kayonkar mai samajhau, mujhe tumse mohabbat hai
yeh afsana nahi jalim mere dil ki hakikat hai

machalti hain tamannaye kahi rusuva na ho jaye
kahi rusuva na ho jaye
musibat uljhane dil ki, kayamat dhadakane dil ki
tumhe kayonkar mai samajhau, mujhe tumse mohabbat hai
yeh afsana nahi jalim mere dil ki hakikat hai

na jiti hu na marti hu, kalish mehsus karti hu
kahi aisa na ho jaye kali khilate hi murjhaye
tumhe kayonkar mai samajhau, mujhe tumse mohabbat hai
yeh afsana nahi jalim mere dil ki hakikat hai

This is no fiction, cruel one, the truth of my heart,
I love you, I love you,
This is no fiction, cruel one, the truth of my heart.

A fire rages within, no joy in living,
My gaze can’t speak, yet can’t be silent,
How can I make you understand, I love you?
This is no fiction, cruel one, the truth of my heart.

Desires stir, lest they bring disgrace,
Lest they bring disgrace,
The heart's troubles, its confusions, the heart's tremors,
How can I make you understand, I love you?
This is no fiction, cruel one, the truth of my heart.

I neither live nor die, feel only a sting,
Lest it happen that the bud wilts as it blooms,
How can I make you understand, I love you?
This is no fiction, cruel one, the truth of my heart.
