mili khaak me mohabbat jala dil ka aashiyana
mili khaak me mohabbat jala dil ka aashiyana
jo thi aaj tak hakikat wahi ban gayi fasana
mili khaak me mohabbat jala dil ka aashiyana

ye bahaar kaisi aayi jo fiza bhi saath layi
ye bahaar kaisi aayi jo fiza bhi saath layi
main kaha rahu chaman me mera lut gaya thikana
mili khaak me mohabbat jala dil ka aashiyana

mujhe raasta dikhakar mere kaarava ko luta
mujhe raasta dikhakar mere kaarava ko luta
idhar aa gale laga lu tujhe gardish-e-zamana
mili khaak me mohabbat jala dil ka aashiyana
jo thi aaj tak hakikat wahi ban gayi fasana
mili khaak me mohabbat

Love, reduced to dust, its home a pyre,
Love, reduced to dust, its home a pyre,
The truth of yesterday, now a dying fire,
Love, reduced to dust, its home a pyre.

What spring is this, that brings the autumn's sting?
What spring is this, that brings the autumn's sting?
How can I dwell in bloom, my shelter torn?
Love, reduced to dust, its home a pyre.

It showed the way, then plundered all I hold,
It showed the way, then plundered all I hold,
Come, time's cruel turning, let me embrace your hold,
Love, reduced to dust, its home a pyre,
The truth of yesterday, now a dying fire,
Love, reduced to dust...
