Galati se mohabbat naama likh diya

Kehnei chalei thei nafarat ki baat

Galati se mahobbat ka pegaam likh diya

I was supposed to write your faults

But by mistake I wrote a book of love

I was supposed to say the words of hatred

But by mistake I said the quote of love

Mahobbat ka dariya nahi mangtei hein

Ho sake toe thodi si chaahat de dei

Maang ka sindoor nahi mangtei hein

Ho sake toe kadamo ki dhuul hi de dei

I am not asking for the ocean of love

If possible just give me bit of liking

I am not asking you to smear my forehead with vermillon

If possible just give me the dust of your feet.

Laila nei pyar kiya aur majnu nei bhi pyar kiya

Shirin nei pyar kiya aur farhaad nei bhi pyar kiya

Par aisa kisi nei na kiya jaisa humnei pyaar kiya

Laila has loved and Majnu has even loved

Shirin has loved and Farhaad has even loved

But no one has ever loved as I have loved

Jabh zindagi sajti hei toe dulhan si lagti hei

Jabh yeh rang badalti hei toe ek bewa si lagti hei

Yeh beraham toe kisi se bhi vafa nahi karti hei

Phir bhi kyon sabko yeh mehbooba si lagti hei

When life gets beautiful it seems like a bride

When it changes its color it seems like a widow

It doesn’t have mercy on anyone, it has never loved anyone

Yet don’t know why everyone loves her

Din dhalte dhalte suraj bhi dhal jaata hei

Andhera hote hote saaya bhi chod jaata hei

At the end of the day, even the sun sets

In darkness, even your own shadow deserts you.
