Tirchhi Nazro.n Sey Na Dekho
CAST NOT AN UNKIND LOOK

Aashiq-e-Dilgeer Ko
AT THE LOVING CONQUEROR OF THE HEART,

Tirchhi Nazro.n Sey Na Dekho
CAST NOT AN UNKIND LOOK


Aashiq-e-Dilgeer Ko
AT THE LOVING CONQUEROR OF THE HEART,

Kaisey Teerandaaz Ho
WHAT SORT OF AN ARCHER ARE YOU?

Seedhaa Toh kar Lo Teer Ko
STRAIGHTEN THE ARROW AT LEAST,

Yeh Gayaa, Dil Meraa,
HERE GOES MY HEART,

Al-Vidaa, Al-Vidaa.
GOOD BYE, GOOD BYE.
