wo aayi subaha ke parade se maut ki aawaz
kisi ne tod diya jaise zindagi ka saaz

khuda nigehaban ho tumhara
khuda nigehaban ho tumhara
dhadakte dil ka payaam le lo
dhadakte dil ka payaam le lo
tumhaari duniyaa se jaa rahe hai
utho hamara salam le lo
utho hamara salam le lo

uthe janaza jo kal hamara
kasam hai tumko, na dena kandha
uthe janaza jo kal hamara
kasam hai tumko, na dena kandha
na ho mohabbat hamari rusawa
ye aansuo kaa payaam le lo
ye aansuo kaa payaam le lo
khudaa nigehabaan ho tumhaaraa
dhadakte dil ka payaam le lo

From dawn's veiled hush, death's whisper unfurls,
As life's lute shatters, its music unfurls.
May God watch over thee,
May God watch over thee.

Accept the message of my beating heart,
Accept the message of my beating heart.
Departing now from your world, we part,
Rise, and receive our final art.
Rise, and receive our final art.

When my bier is raised tomorrow,
I implore you, bear no sorrow.
When my bier is raised tomorrow,
I implore you, bear no sorrow.
Let not our love be shamed and hollow,
Accept these tears, the heart's true follow.
Accept these tears, the heart's true follow.
May God watch over thee,
Accept the message of my beating heart.
