kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti hath kisi ke moti aaye
kisi ke pyar ki mala tutihath kisi ke moti aaye
majburi ka naam hai kismat kismat se koi kya takraye
kismat se koi kya takraye kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti

prit huyi nilam kisi ki shehnayi ki gunj na jane
sazi sazayi lash ko duniya nayi naveli dulhan mane
dur khada ek pagal premi tute dil ke saz pe gaye
kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti

hath me kangan ki hathkadiya mang me dil ke lahu ka tika
lal chunariya aodhi lekin armano ka rang hai phika
hoth pe khamoshi ke pehre kisko dil ka dard sunaye
kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti
hath kisi ke moti aaye majburi ka naam hai kismat
kismat se koi kya takraye kismat se koi kya takraye
kisi ke pyar ki mala tuti

A broken love, a scattered string, some hands hold pearls instead,
A broken love, a scattered string, some hands hold pearls instead.
Necessity, they call it fate, against it, who can tread?
Against the fate, who can contend? A broken love, a scattered string.

Another's love, an auction's prize, no wedding bells now chime,
The world proclaims a painted corpse, a bride in borrowed time.
A madman watches from afar, sings dirges, soul entwined.
A broken love, a scattered string, a broken love, the same.

Bracelets of shackles bind the wrist, a crimson mark upon the brow,
A scarlet veil, a fading dream, desires lie withered now.
Upon the lips, a silent guard, to whom can hearts allow?
A broken love, a scattered string, some hands hold pearls instead.
Necessity, they call it fate, against it, who can tread?
Against the fate, who can contend? A broken love, a scattered string.
A broken love, a scattered string.
