jaau kaha bata ai dil, duniya badi hai sangdil
chaandni aayi ghar jalane, soojhe na koi manzil
jaau kaha bata ai dil, duniya badi hai sangdil
chandni aayi ghar jalane, soojhe na koi manzil
jaau kaha bata ai dil

banke toote yaha aarzoo ke mahal
ye zameen aasmaan bhi gaye hain badal
kahti hai zindagi is jaha se nikal
kahti hai zindagi is jaha se nikal
jaau kaha bata ai dil, duniya badi hai sangdil
chandni aayi ghar jalane, soojhe na koi manzil
jaau kaha bata ai dil

haay is paar to aansuo ki dagar
jaane us paar kya ho kise hai khabar
thokare kha rahi har kadam par nazar
thokare kha rahi har kadam par nazar
jaau kaha bata ai dil, duniya badi hai sangdil
chandni aayi ghar jalane, soojhe na koi manzil
jaau kaha bata ai dil

Where shall I go, tell me, O heart, this world, a heart of stone,
Moonlight descends, a pyre to ignite, no path is known.
Where shall I go, tell me, O heart, this world, a heart of stone,
Moonlight descends, a pyre to ignite, no path is known.
Where shall I go, tell me, O heart.

Here, castles of longing crumble to dust,
The earth, the heavens, shifting, turned unjust.
Life whispers, "Depart this realm, you must,"
Life whispers, "Depart this realm, you must."
Where shall I go, tell me, O heart, this world, a heart of stone,
Moonlight descends, a pyre to ignite, no path is known.
Where shall I go, tell me, O heart.

Alas, on this shore, a path of tears we tread,
Who knows what waits on that shore ahead?
At every step, our vision, by stumbles misled.
At every step, our vision, by stumbles misled.
Where shall I go, tell me, O heart, this world, a heart of stone,
Moonlight descends, a pyre to ignite, no path is known.
Where shall I go, tell me, O heart.
