ye bhul bhule se kabhi
hum teri tamnna kar baithe
hum teri tamnna kar baithe
pachhtata hai ab dil rah rah kar
kya karna tha aur kya kar baithe
kya karna tha aur kya kar baithe

malum na tha le jayegi ye dil ki lagi
is manjil tak
hum ishq me itne mahar huye
kafir ko bhi sajda kar baithe
kafir ko bhi sajda kar baithe
kya tumne kaha kya humne suna
kyu raaz ye khulta gairo par
khud apni juba se hum apni
ruswayi ka chrcha kar baithe
ruswayi ka chrcha kar baithe

ye bhul bhule se kabhi
hum teri tamnna kar baithe
hum teri tamnna kar baithe
pachhtata hai ab dil rah rah kar
kya karna tha aur kya kar baithe
kya karna tha aur kya kar baithe

By chance, a longing bloomed,
For you, my heart did yearn.
A longing's seed, so blindly sown,
My soul now aches, and turns.
What course was set, what path was mine,
And what, alas, was done?

Unknowing, this desire's fire,
Would lead to such a plight,
Lost deep in love's unbounded sea,
I knelt, and kissed the light
Of idols, where no faith should be,
And bowed in darkest night.

Your words, I heard, my own replied,
Why whispered secrets then?
My tongue, alas, betrayed the truth,
To strangers, not my kin.
My own disgrace, I did proclaim,
And whispered out, again.

By chance, a longing bloomed,
For you, my heart did yearn.
A longing's seed, so blindly sown,
My soul now aches, and turns.
What course was set, what path was mine,
And what, alas, was done?
