usne meri khatir nee, bag baran saal churaya

If my mother asks, of the heart's plight I'd tell,
My soul yearns, a lover's breath, to taste death's shell.
The absence of my beloved, a torment deep inside,
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, in me, does abide.
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, in me, does abide.

A thief I am, a stain of love I embraced,
For me, he stole twelve years, in a world disgraced.
A thief I am, a stain of love I embraced,
For me, he stole twelve years, in a world disgraced.
May God condemn this wretched soul, to hell's own fire's hold,
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, in me, does unfold.
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, in me, does unfold.

The world condemns me, a Jat woman's name besmirched,
Never has, nor will there be, a shame as my soul has fetched.
The world condemns me, a Jat woman's name besmirched,
Never has, nor will there be, a shame as my soul has fetched.
This worry alone, gnaws at my core's despair,
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, I now share.
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, I now share.

Without my sight, he ate not, nor drank a drop so sweet,
Now, alas, he finds not, his own self to meet.
Without my sight, he ate not, nor drank a drop so sweet,
Now, alas, he finds not, his own self to meet.
These silken threads of sorrow, seem like thorns that pierce and bind,
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, I now find.
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, I now find.

From now on, I bear no ill will, no spite,
Body and soul now Ranjha's, listen to my plight.
From now on, I bear no ill will, no spite,
Body and soul now Ranjha's, listen to my plight.
My beloved's touch of joy, never again to find,
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, intertwined.
Each day, each night, dear friend, my Ranjha, intertwined.
