kitni jalim hai ye duniya
funk dala ghar mera
jal gaya sara chaman hum
bejaba dekha kiya

jis tarah se hum barbad huye
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho
jis tarah se hum barbad huye
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho

dil ki basti is tarah se lut gayi ek bhul se
jis tarah khushbu juda ho jaye najuk phul se
haye duniya kya tujhe yuhi mujhe bahlana tha
haye duniya kya tujhe yuhi mujhe bahlana tha
khaab tha jo kuch ke dekha
jo suna afsana tha

jis tarah se hum barbad huye
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho
jis tarah se hum barbad huye
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho
aisa bhi koi barbad na ho

How cruel this world can be,
A fire consuming my home,
Burning the garden, every tree,
Silent, I watched, alone.

The way we fell to ruin's hand,
May no one know such bitter fate,
May no one know such barren land,
The way we fell, sealed by hate.
May no one know such bitter fate.

The heart's city, plundered in the fray,
Like fragrance torn from a fragile bloom,
Oh, world, was it your wicked way
To mock my joy, to seal my doom?
A dream I held, a whispered tale,
A story spun, destined to fail.

The way we fell to ruin's hand,
May no one know such bitter fate,
May no one know such barren land,
The way we fell, sealed by hate.
May no one know such bitter fate.
