dil e nadaan tujhe huwa kya hai
aakhir is dard ki dawaa kya hai
dil e nadaan tujhe huwa kya hai

humko unse wafaa ki hai umeed
humko unse wafaa ki hai umeed
humko unse wafaa ki hai umeed
jo nahi jaante wafaa kya hai
jo nahi jaante wafaa kya hai
dil e nadaan tujhe huwa kya hai

jaan tum par nisaar karta hu
jaan tum par nisaar karta hu
jaan tum par nisaar karta hu
main nahi jaanta duaa kya hai
dil e nadaan tujhe huwa kya hai

maine maana ke kuchh nahi ghalib
maine maana ke kuchh nahi ghalib
muft haath aaye toh bura kya hai
dil e nadaan tujhe huwa kya hai
dil e nadaan tujhe huwa kya hai

What ails you, O heart, so naive?
Tell me, what remedy can ease this ache?
What ails you, O heart, so naive?

From them, I seek a love so true,
From them, I seek a love so true,
From them, I seek a love so true,
They, who know not what devotion means.
They, who know not what devotion means.
What ails you, O heart, so naive?

My life I offer, all for you,
My life I offer, all for you,
My life I offer, all for you,
And yet, I know not what prayer can do.
What ails you, O heart, so naive?

I concede, I am nothing, Ghalib,
I concede, I am nothing, Ghalib,
If freely offered, what is the harm?
What ails you, O heart, so naive?
What ails you, O heart, so naive?
