pyaar ke saagar se nikali moti ke badale ret
ab pachhataaye kya hoye jab chidiya chug gayi khet
ek jhuth hai, ek jhuth hai jiska duniya ne
rakha hai muhabbat naam are rakha hai muhabbat naam
dhokha hai jise, dhokha hai jise kahte hai wafa
bas dekh liya anjaam are bas dekh liya anjaam

pani si nazar, pathar sa jigar bedard tujhe pahchan gaye
pani si nazar, pathar sa jigar bedard tujhe pahchan gaye
ham pyar ki nagari me aakar dastur yaha ke jaan gaye
milati hai khushi
milati hai khushi dam bhar ke liye
rone ko hai subah-o-shaam
rone ko hai subah-o-shaam
haay bas dekh liya, bas dekh liya anjaam

na puchh hua jo haal mera, ek teri nazar ke dhokhe se
na puchh hua jo haal mera, ek teri nazar ke dhokhe se
jaise koi jalta dip bujhe bas ek hawa ke jhokhe se
dil de ke hame
dil de ke hame kuchh bhi na mila
bekaar huye badnaam, bekaar huye badnaam
haay bas dekh liya, bas dekh liya anjaam

From love's ocean, sand for pearls, a trade so dire,
Now, what use to weep, when the birds have flown, the field set afire?
A lie it is, a lie the world has spun,
And named it love, oh, named it love, as one.
Deceit it is, deceit, they call it faith,
We've seen the end, we've walked its shadowed path.

Water-like eyes, a heart of stone, heartless, we know thee,
Water-like eyes, a heart of stone, heartless, we know thee,
In love's city we came, learned the customs, wild and free.
Joy we find,
Joy we find, a moment's fleeting grace,
Then weeping dawn to evening's claim,
Weeping dawn to evening's claim,
Oh, we've seen the end, we've seen the end.

Don't ask my plight, the curse of your gaze, a wound so deep,
Don't ask my plight, the curse of your gaze, a wound so deep,
Like a candle blown, by a gust of wind, in slumber's keep.
Heart we gave,
Heart we gave, and gained but emptiness,
In vain, our name now shamed,
In vain, our name now shamed,
Oh, we've seen the end, we've seen the end.
