aye bewafa aye bewafa ye to bata
kya hai meri khata, aye bewafa

dil ka khajana tune na jana, chhod jamana tere hi liye
tute hai sare sapne hamare, yu besahare koi kya jiye
kyu kar diya beasra, ye to bata kya hai meri khata
aye bewafa

najre milake ulfat jatake, apna banake daga kyu diya
najre milake ulfat jatake, apna banake daga kyu diya
banke paraya mujhko bhulaya, dil ko jalaya ye kya hai kiya
kis bat ka badla liya, ye to bata kya hai meri khata
aye bewafa

tere liye hum tadpenge har dum, dil me tera gum rahega sanam
tere liye hum tadpenge har dum, dil me tera gum rahega sanam
darti nigahe dekhengi rahe, bhar bhar ke aahe sahenge gum
jo kuch kiya acha kiya, ye to bata kya hai meri khata
aye bewafa

Oh, you of faithlessness, oh, faithless one, tell me now,
What was my fault, oh, faithless one?

The heart's treasure, you never knew, I left the world only for you,
All our dreams have shattered, we are forsaken, how can anyone live?
Why did you render me lifeless, tell me, what was my fault?
Oh, faithless one.

Meeting eyes, feigning love, claiming me as your own, then deceiving,
Meeting eyes, feigning love, claiming me as your own, then deceiving,
Making me a stranger, forgetting me, burning my heart, what have you done?
For what did you take revenge, tell me, what was my fault?
Oh, faithless one.

For you, I will yearn every moment, your sorrow will remain in my heart, beloved,
For you, I will yearn every moment, your sorrow will remain in my heart, beloved,
The earth will watch with longing eyes, paths will be sought, bearing sorrow with sighs,
Whatever you did was good, tell me, what was my fault?
Oh, faithless one.
