badla to aise badla hai kuchh rang-e-gulasitan
ek phul pe bahar hai ek phul pe khizan

zindagi bhar gam judai ka mujhe tadpaega
har naya mausam purani yad lekar aega
zindagi bhar gam judai ka mujhe tadpaega

hai vahi rahe vahi galiyan magar sunsan hai
tu nahi to dil ki sari bastiyan viran hai
dil me hai jo gam tera vo jaan lekar jaega
zindagi bhar gam judai ka mujhe tadpaega

ho mubarak tujhko khushiyan aur mujhe rusavaiyan
tujhko tera ghar salamat aur mujhe tanahaiyan
marte-marte bhi tera hi naam lab pe aega
zindagi bhar gam judai ka mujhe tadpaega
har naya mausam purani yad lekar aega
zindagi bhar gam judai ka mujhe tadpaega

The garden's hues, a sudden, stark descent,
One bloom in spring, another, autumn-rent.
The grief of parting, a lifelong, stinging rain,
Each season's bloom, an echo of the pain.
The grief of parting, a lifelong, stinging rain.

The paths remain, the alleys, once so bright,
Now silent, hushed, devoid of your light.
Without your presence, the heart's cities fade,
The sorrow in my soul, a life it's made.
The grief of parting, a lifelong, stinging rain.

May joy embrace you, while disgrace be mine,
May you find solace, in a home divine,
While solitude becomes my only friend.
Your name, upon my lips, until the end.
The grief of parting, a lifelong, stinging rain,
Each season's bloom, an echo of the pain.
The grief of parting, a lifelong, stinging rain.
