ashqo ki kahaani kyaa kahiye
aaho kaa fasaanaa kyaa kahiye
hans-hans ke rulaata hai kaise
bedard zamaanaa kyaa kahiye
ashqo ki kahaani kyaa kahiye

jab chaandani raate hoti thi
jab pyaar ki baate hoti thi
jab pyaar ki baate hoti thi
ab tak jo basaa hai aankho me
ab tak jo basaa hai aankho me
wo khwaab suhaanaa kyaa kahiye
ashqo ki kahaani kyaa kahiye

jiwan ke chaman tak aate hi
rangin bahaare laut ga
jiwan ke chaman tak aate hi
rangin bahaare laut ga
ho ruthi hui kismat kaa haay
ho ruthi hui kismat kaa haay
bharpur nishana kyaa kahiye
ashqo ki kahaani kyaa kahiye

maanaa ki sitamagar duniyaa hai
sunne ke liye betaab magar
sunne ke liye betaab magar
jab wo nahi sunne waalo me
jab wo nahi sunne waalo me
phir apanaa fasaanaa kyaa kahiye

ashqo ki kahaani kyaa kahiye
aaho kaa fasaanaa kyaa kahiye
hans-hans ke rulaata hai kaise
bedard zamaanaa kyaa kahiye
ashqo ki kahaani kyaa kahiye

What tales the teardrops weave,
What dirges of the soul to breathe?
How laughter’s guise masks pain's deep sting,
What of this heartless world to leave?
What tales the teardrops weave.

When moonlit nights did softly gleam,
When whispered words of love would stream,
Within the eyes, a memory dwells,
A dream, a long-lost, cherished dream.
What tales the teardrops weave.

As life’s fair garden came in sight,
The vibrant springs took sudden flight.
From fate's harsh grip, a cruel design,
A wound that bleeds in endless night.
What tales the teardrops weave.

Though cruel the world, and keen to hear,
Yet when the loved one is not near,
And cannot heed the heart’s despair,
Why then pour out the tear?
What tales the teardrops weave.

What tales the teardrops weave,
What dirges of the soul to breathe?
How laughter’s guise masks pain's deep sting,
What of this heartless world to leave?
What tales the teardrops weave.
