ek yaad kisi ki, yaad rahi
ek yaad kisi ki, yaad rahi
aur sari duniya bhul gaye
dil gum ke geet sunata hai
dil gum ke geet sunata hai
aaram ka nagma bhul gaye
ek yaad kisi ki, yaad rahi
aur sari duniya bhul gaye

kyu kar mai hansu, dil rota hai
ab koi bhi aansu rota hai
ye aansu jahan me jeete hai
ye aansu jahan me jeete hai
jeene ki tamanna bhul gaye
ek yaad kisi ki, yaad rahi
aur sari duniya bhul gaye

A memory, hers, it lingered, stayed,
A memory of her, held fast and made
The world, a forgotten, hazy dream.
My heart, it sings a sorrow's theme,
My heart, it sings a mournful lay,
The solace-song, we've cast away.
A memory, hers, it lingered, stayed,
And the world, a forgotten, fading shade.

Why must I smile, when the heart weeps sore?
Now tears, they fall and ever pour.
These tears, they live within this sphere,
These tears, they thrive and persevere.
The longing to live, we've set aside,
A memory, hers, where shadows hide,
And the world, a forgotten, fading tide.
