aapane yaad dilaayaa to mujhe yaad aayaa
ke mere dil pe padaa thaa koi gam kaa saayaa
aapane yaad dilaayaa

mai bhi kyaa chiz hun khaayaa thaa kabhi tir koi
dard ab jaa ke uthaa chot lage der hui
tumako hamadard jo paayaa to mujhe yaad aayaa
ke mere dil pe padaa thaa koi gam kaa saayaa

mai zami par hun na samajhaa na parakhanaa chaahaa
aasamaa par ye kadam jhum ke rakhanaa chaahaa
aaj jo sar ko jhukaayaa to mujhe yaad aayaa
ke mere dil pe padaa thaa koi gam kaa saayaa

You, with your remembering, stirred a memory's tide,
A shadow of sorrow upon my heart did reside.
You, with your remembering...

A strange thing I am, an arrow once pierced my core,
The ache only rises, the wound lingers and sore.
Finding solace in you, the remembrance did bloom,
A shadow of sorrow upon my heart's room.

I, earthbound and blind, failed to understand,
Yet sought heaven's embrace, to dance on the sand.
Now, bowed head in reverence, the truth I reclaim,
A shadow of sorrow, whispering my name.

I too, resolved to stay, to walk beside you,
To journey afar, in hopes of seeing you through.
My heart's deep awareness, a memory's call,
A shadow of sorrow encompassing all.
