ham darde mohabbat ki dil ko na saja dete
tum itne sitamgar ho pahle hi bata dete
ham darde mohabbat ki dil ko na saja dete
tum itne sitamgar pahle hi bata dete
ham darde mohabbat ki

jab jashan ki mahfil ko rangin banana tha
jab jashan ki mahfil ko rangin banana tha
phulo ki jagah apne
phulo ki jagah apne jakhmo ko saja dete

acha hi kiya tumne khud tod diya rishta
acha hi kiya tumne khud tod diya rishta
tum humko siwa gum ke tum humko siwa gum ke
dete bhi to kya dete tum humko siwa gum ke

shamil na agar hote hum teri gunaho me
shamil na agar hote hum teri gunaho me
parda tere chehre se parda tere chehre se
mahfil me utha dete
ham darde mohabbat ki dil ko na saja dete
tum itne sitamgar pahle hi bata dete
ham darde mohabbat ki

We would not have sentenced our hearts to love's ache,
Had you, so cruel, forewarned us of your sake.
We would not have sentenced our hearts to love's ache,
Had you, so cruel, forewarned us of your sake.
We would not have sentenced our hearts...

To paint the joy-filled gathering with hue,
To paint the joy-filled gathering with hue,
Instead of blooms,
Instead of blooms, our wounds we would imbue.

Better you shattered the bond yourself,
Better you shattered the bond yourself,
For what, save sorrow,
For what, save sorrow, could you else have dealt?

Had we not shared in your transgressions' shade,
Had we not shared in your transgressions' shade,
We would have lifted,
We would have lifted, your face's veil displayed.
We would not have sentenced our hearts to love's ache,
Had you, so cruel, forewarned us of your sake.
We would not have sentenced our hearts...
