Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Urdu-Hindi Lyrics:


mere dil pe andheraa saa chhaane lagaa,
A SORT OF DARKNESS HAS BEGUN TO SPREAD OVER MY HEART,

aap chehre se chilman, haTaa leejiyeh,
REMOVE THE VEIL FROM THE FACE,

mere dil pe, andheraa saa chhaane lagaa,
A SORT OF DARKNESS HAS BEGUN TO SPREAD OVER MY HEART,

aap chehre se chilman, haTaa leejiyeh,
REMOVE THE VEIL FROM THE FACE,

mere aage zamaanaa yeh jhuk jaayegaa,
THIS WORLD WILL BOW BEFORE ME,

aap apnee nigaahe.n, jhukaa leejiyeh
CAST DOWN THINE GLANCES,

mere dil pe, andheraa saa chhaane lagaa...
A SORT OF DARKNESS HAS BEGUN TO SPREAD OVER MY HEART..

WELL, TAKE MY LIFE, BUT DO EMBRACE ME,

ab yeh duuree naa hamse, sahee jaayegee haay,
THIS SEPARATION I WON’T BE ABLE TO ENDURE NOW,
