ae jan-e-wafa aisa bhi kya tum to khafa humse ho gaye
ae jan-e-wafa aisa bhi kya tum to khafa humse ho gaye
ye tumne kaha tha ke hum hai tumhare
to hum bhi ye samjhe ke tum ho hamare
phir hume kis bat ki saja de rahe ho
ae jan-e-wafa aisa bhi kya tum to khafa humse ho gaye

idhar rah gayi ya udhar rah gayi hai
kahi kuch kami si magar rah gayi hai
meri wafa ka ye kya shila de rahe ho
ai jan-e-wafa aisa bhi kya tum to khafa humse ho gaye

jaha pyar hoga shararat bhi hogi
jaha hogi anban mohobbat hogi
jhuki jhuki aankho se ye pata de rahe ho
ae jan-e-wafa aisa bhi kya tum to khafa humse ho gaye
ae jan-e-wafa aisa bhi kya tum to khafa humse ho gaye

Oh, soul's beloved, what sorrow's shade has fallen?
Why such anger blooms where love was called upon?
You swore a bond, "I am yours," you did proclaim,
And in that truth, my heart found warmth and flame.
Then why this penance, this cold, bitter plight?
Oh, soul's beloved, what sorrow's shade has fallen?

Here, a fragment lingers, there, a missing piece,
A hollow echo where sweet whispers cease.
What recompense is this for love I've given?
Oh, soul's beloved, what sorrow's shade has fallen?

Where love resides, mischief will surely play,
And discord's storms will steal the light of day.
Your lowered gaze, a truth it seems to keep,
Oh, soul's beloved, what sorrow's shade has fallen?
Oh, soul's beloved, what sorrow's shade has fallen?
