nikle the kaha jane ke liye, pahunche hai kaha malum nahi
pahunche hai kaha malum nahi
ab apne bhatakte kadmo ko, manzil ka nisha malum nahi
manjil ka nisha malum nahi

humne bhi kabhi ho humne bhi kabhi iss gulshan me
ek khwab-ae-bahara dekha tha, ek khwab-ae-bahara dekha tha
kab phul jhade kab phul jhade, kab gard udi
kab aayi khija malum nahi, kab aayi khija malum nahi
ab apne bhatakte kadmo ko, manzil ka nisha malum nahi
manzil ka nisha malum nahi

dil shola-ae-gam se ho dil shola-ae-gam se khak huwa
ya aag lagi armaano me, ya aag lagi armaano me
kya chiz jali kya chiz jali kyun seene se
utha hai dhua malum nahi, utha hai dhua malum nahi
ab apne bhatakte kadmo ko, manzil ka nisha malum nahi
manzil ka nisha malum nahi

barbaad wafa ho barbaad wafa ka afasana
hum kisse kahe aur kaise kahe, hum kisse kahe aur kaise kahe
khamosh hai lab khamosh hai lab aur duniya ko
ashko ki juba malum nahi, ashko ki juba malum nahi
nikle the kaha jane ke liye, pahunche hai kaha malum nahi
pahunche hai kaha malum nahi
ab apne bhatakte kadmo ko, manzil ka nisha malum nahi
manjil ka nisha malum nahi

We set out, destination unknown,
arrived where? The heart has never known.
Our wandering feet, astray and worn,
seek a mark of home, a place to be born.

Once, in this garden, we too, we too,
saw a dream of spring, a verdant hue.
When petals fell, when dust took flight,
when autumn came, veiled in fading light,
Our wandering feet, astray and worn,
seek a mark of home, a place to be born.

The heart, a flame of sorrow's plight,
consumed to dust, in endless night.
Or fire raged, in dreams we kept,
what burned, why ash, from where tears wept?
Our wandering feet, astray and worn,
seek a mark of home, a place to be born.

Love's tale is lost, a wreck of grace,
to whom to tell, in what embrace?
Lips sealed in silence, world unknown,
the language of tears, a seed unsown.
We set out, destination unknown,
arrived where? The heart has never known.
Our wandering feet, astray and worn,
seek a mark of home, a place to be born.
