o dard se mera daaman bhar de, ya allaah
o dard se mera daaman bhar de, ya allaah
phir chaahe divaanaa kar de, ya allaah
o dard se mera daaman bhar de, ya allaah

maine tujhse chaand sitaare kab maange
maine tujhse chaand sitaare kab maange
roshani de, bezaar nazar de, ya allaah
phir chaahe divaanaa kar de, ya allaah
dard se mera daaman bhar de, ya allaah

suraj si ik chiz to ham sab dekh chuke
suraj si ik chiz to ham sab dekh chuke
sachamuch ki ab koi sahar de, ya allaah
phir chaahe divaanaa kar de, ya allaah
dard se mera daaman bhar de, ya allaah

ya dharati ke zakhmo par maraham rakh de
ya dharati ke zakhmo par maraham rakh de
ya meraa dil patthar kar de, ya allaah
phir chaahe divaanaa kar de, ya allaah
dard se mera daaman bhar de, ya allaah

Oh, fill my cloak with pain, Allah,
Oh, fill my cloak with pain, Allah,
Then drive me mad, if you must, Allah,
Oh, fill my cloak with pain, Allah.

I never asked for moons and stars from You,
I never asked for moons and stars from You,
Give light, a weary sight, Allah,
Then drive me mad, if you must, Allah,
Fill my cloak with pain, Allah.

The sun, a thing we've all beheld before,
The sun, a thing we've all beheld before,
Truly, now, grant a dawn, Allah,
Then drive me mad, if you must, Allah,
Fill my cloak with pain, Allah.

Either soothe the earth's deep wounds,
Either soothe the earth's deep wounds,
Or turn my heart to stone, Allah,
Then drive me mad, if you must, Allah,
Fill my cloak with pain, Allah.
