dil kee shikayat najar ke shikave
ek juban aur lakh baya
chhupa sako na dikha saku
mere dil ke dard bhi huye jawan

chand hansa tare chamke
aur mast hawa jab ithalai
chupti phiri na jane kyu main
janey kyun main sharmai tere siwa hai koun
jo samajhe kya gujaree mujhpar yaha
chhupa sako na dikha saku
mere dil ke dard bhi huye jawan

sapno me bhee ham mil naa sake
nind bhee tere sath gayi
sawan aag laga key chal diya
ro ro ke barsat gayi
main apni takdir pe royi
mujhpe hansa bedard jaha
chhupa sako na dikha saku
mere dil ke dard bhi huye jawan

thode likhe ko bahut samajh lo
naye nahi ye afsane
dil majbur bhar aata hai
chhalak uthe hai paimane
khat me jahan aansu tapka hai
likha hai maine pyar waha
chhupa sako na dikha saku
mere dil ke dard bhi huye jawan

Heart's lament, eye's reproach,
One tongue, a million tales untold.
To hide, unable to expose,
My heart's aches, now grown bold.

The moon did laugh, stars did gleam,
As playful winds began to sway.
Why did I hide, I could not say,
Why did I blush, in disarray?
Who else but you could truly know,
The weight of all I bear?
To hide, unable to expose,
My heart's aches, now grown bold.

Even dreams eluded our embrace,
Sleep departed, sought your side.
The monsoon, setting fire ablaze, passed,
Weeping, the rain did glide.
I wept for fate's cruel hand,
The heartless world, it jeered and laughed.
To hide, unable to expose,
My heart's aches, now grown bold.

A little penned, yet much conveyed,
These tales, they are not new.
The heart, compelled, overflows,
As measures now imbue.
Where tears have fallen on the page,
There, I have written love's true art.
To hide, unable to expose,
My heart's aches, now grown bold.
