ek tu na mila mila mila mila
ek tu na mila
ek tu na mila, sari duniya mile bhi to kya hai
ek tu na mila
mera dil na khila
mera dil na khila, sari bagiya khile bhi to kya hai
ek tu na mila

dharti hu mai aur tu hai gagan, hoga kaha tera mera milan
dharti hu mai aur tu hai gagan, hoga kaha tera mera milan
lakh pahere yaha
lakh pahere yaha, pyar dil me pale bhi toh kya hai
ek tu na mila

takdir ki mai koyi bhul hu, dali se bichhada huwa phul hu
takdir ki mai koyi bhul hu, dali se bichhada huwa phul hu
sath tera nahi
sath tera nahi, sang duniya chale bhi toh kya hai
ek tu na mila

tujhse lipatkar jo ro lete ham, aansu nahi the ye moti se kam
tujhse lipatkar jo ro lete ham, aansu nahi the ye moti se kam
tera daman nahi
tera daman nahi, yeh aansu dhale bhi toh kya hai
ek tu na mila
ek tu na mila, sari duniya mile bhi to kya hai
ek tu na mila

You, and you alone, remained unseen,
Though worlds convened, what solace gleans?
My heart, it bloomed not, could not convene,
Though gardens burst, what joy, what means?
You, and you alone, remained unseen.

I am the earth, and you the skies,
Where then, this meeting of our eyes?
I am the earth, and you the skies,
Where then, this meeting, our surprise?
A thousand guards, they rise, they loom,
Though love may swell, what chance, what room?
You, and you alone, remained unseen.

A forgotten verse, a fate's mistake,
A flower severed, for sorrow's sake,
A forgotten verse, a fate's mistake,
A flower severed, for sorrow's sake,
Your touch denied, a lonely quest,
Though worlds may walk, what ease, what rest?
You, and you alone, remained unseen.

Had I but wept, held close to you,
My tears, like pearls, a precious view,
Had I but wept, held close to you,
My tears, like pearls, a precious view,
Your hand withheld, a vacant shore,
Though teardrops fall, what do they pour?
You, and you alone, remained unseen.
You, and you alone, remained unseen,
Though worlds convened, what solace gleans?
You, and you alone, remained unseen.
