kahaa.n gayee bhagwaan bataa doh,

MY SHADOW HAS GONE ASUNDER!
meree bichha.D gayee hai chhaayaa,
MY SHADOW HAS GONE ASUNDER!
kahaa.n gayee bhagwaan bataa doh…
WHERE HAS SHE GONE, TELL ME O GOD!
bhaTak rahaa hoo.n raah dikhaa doh,
I’M WANDERING ABOUT, SHOW ME THE PATH
bhaTak rahaa hoo.n raah dikhaa doh,
I’M WANDERING ABOUT, SHOW ME THE PATH
manzil tak mujh ko pahu.ncha doh,
CONVEY ME TO THE DESTINATION!
bujhaa naa denaa toofaano.n me.n,
DON’T EXTINGUISH IN THE STORMS…
bujhaa naa denaa toofaano.n me.n,
DON’T EXTINGUISH IN THE STORMS

nayan diye par dekh naa paayaa,
I COULDN’T SEE DESPITE THE GIVEN EYES,
nayan diye par dekh naa paayaa,
I COULDN’T SEE DESPITE THE GIVEN EYES,

ON MY OWN, I SQUANDERED ALL THAT WAS MINE,
patthar ko mai.n samjhaa moteee,
I TOOK THE STONE FOR A PEARL,
patthar ko mai.n samjhaa moteee,
I TOOK THE STONE FOR A PEARL,
heere ko Thukraayaa
I SPURNED THE DIAMOND!

MY SHADOW HAS GONE ASUNDER!
meree bichha.D gayee hai chhaayaa,
MY SHADOW HAS GONE ASUNDER!

WOUNDED HEART, BROKEN HOPES,
Khaalee haath naa lauTaa denaa,
DON’T SEND ME BACK EMPTY-HANDED,
Khaalee haath naa lauTaa denaa,
DON’T SEND ME BACK EMPTY-HANDED,
Aashaa lekar aayaa
I’VE COME WITH A HOPE!
meree bichha.D gayee, hai chhaayaa,
MY SHADOW HAS GONE ASUNDER!
meree bichha.D gayee hai chhaayaa,
MY SHADOW HAS GONE ASUNDER!
