tum bin jiwan kaise bita puchho mere dil se
puchho mere dil se tum bin jiwan kaise bita
puchho mere dil se puchho mere dil se
puchho mere dil se puchho mere dil se

sawan ke din aaye biti yade laye
kaun jhukakar ankhe mujhko pas bithhaye
kaisa tha pyara rup tumhara puchho mere dil se
puchho mere dil se tum bin jiwan kaise bita
puchho mere dil se puchho mere dil se

prem kaa sagar hay charo taraf leharaye
jitna aage jau gehra hota jaye
gam ke bhanwar me kya kya duba puchho mere dil se
puchho mere dil se tum bin jiwan kaise bita
puchho mere dil se puchho mere dil se

jaise jugnu ban me tu chamke ansuwan me
ban kar phul khili ho jane kis bagiya me
mai apni kismat pe roya puchho mere dil se
puchho mere dil se tum bin jiwan kaise bita
puchho mere dil se puchho mere dil se

Ask my heart, how life endures without you,
Ask my heart, how life unfolds, bereft of you.
Ask my heart, ask my heart,
Ask my heart, ask my heart.

The monsoon arrives, bearing memories' weight,
Who now will lower their gaze, and sit me near?
Your beloved form, how it shone, ask my heart.
Ask my heart, how life endures without you,
Ask my heart, ask my heart.

The ocean of love, it surges on all sides,
The further I venture, the deeper it hides.
In sorrow's whirlpool, what has sunk, ask my heart.
Ask my heart, how life endures without you,
Ask my heart, ask my heart.

Like a firefly, you gleam within the woods,
As tears, as a bloom, in what garden you stood.
I wept for my fate, ask my heart.
Ask my heart, how life endures without you,
Ask my heart, ask my heart.
