aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
ai sham.a tujh pe raat ye bhārī hai jis tarah
maiñ ne tamām umr guzārī hai is tarah
ai shama tujh pe raat ye bhaari hai jis tarah
main ne tamam umr guzari hai is tarah
añgḌā.ī bhī vo lene na paa.e uThā ke haath
dekhā jo mujh ko chhoḌ diye muskurā ke haath
she couldn't even stretch out with her arms upraised
seeing me she smiled and composed herself all fazed
angDai bhi wo lene na pae uTha ke hath
dekha jo mujh ko chhoD diye muskura ke hath
ai dost maiñ ḳhāmosh kisī Dar se nahīñ thā
qaa.il hī tirī baat kā andar se nahīñ thā
ai dost main KHamosh kisi Dar se nahin tha
qail hi teri baat ka andar se nahin tha
diyā ḳhāmosh hai lekin kisī kā dil to jaltā hai
chale aao jahāñ tak raushnī ma.alūm hotī hai
the lamp's extinguised but someone's heart
diya KHamosh hai lekin kisi ka dil to jalta hai
chale aao jahan tak raushni malum hoti hai
ik raat vo gayā thā jahāñ baat rok ke
ab tak rukā huā huuñ vahīñ raat rok ke
ek raat wo gaya tha jahan baat rok ke
ab tak ruka hua hun wahin raat rok ke
