chale kaha leke mere dil ka karar
ye to bata o balma
ham nahi rukte jhutha hai tera pyar
dekh liya o jalima

rou akeli na ja ho o mere dil ke raja
haye rou akeli na ja o mere dil ke raja
dekho idhar dekho ek najar dekho
kahe ho hamse khafa
chale kaha leke mere dil ka karar
ye to bata o balma

hum to chale gum leke bhul hui dil deke
hum to chale gum leke bhul hui dil deke
kisko khabar thi ye reet hasino ki hai
wafa ke badle jafa
chale kaha leke mere dil ka karar
ye to bata o balma

aaja o dilbar mere ho naaz uthau tere
aaja o dilbar mere ho naaz uthau tere
hamse kasur hua ha ha jarur hua
kar do ji maaf jara
chale kaha leke mere dil ka karar
ye to bata o balma

husn jo ro ro bulaye haye ishk bhala kaha jaye
husn jo ro ro bulaye haye ishk bhala kaha jaye
lo nahi jate hai ham
nazre milate hai hum bhul ke sab gila
chale kaha leke mere dil ka karar
ye to bata o balma

Where do you wander, with my heart's repose?
Tell me, my beloved, tell me where you go.
I do not linger, your love is a false rose,
I have seen it, cruel one, I know.

I weep alone, do not go, oh, my heart's king,
I weep alone, do not go, oh, my heart's king,
Look this way, look, a glance, a thing,
Why are you angered, wherefore this woe?
Where do you wander, with my heart's repose?
Tell me, my beloved, tell me where you go.

I depart with sorrow, forgetting, giving my heart,
I depart with sorrow, forgetting, giving my heart,
Who knew this was the beauty's art?
Betrayal for faithfulness, a bitter flow.
Where do you wander, with my heart's repose?
Tell me, my beloved, tell me where you go.

Come, my heart's lover, I'll bear your every grace,
Come, my heart's lover, I'll bear your every grace,
A fault was ours, yes, in this space,
Forgive me, I beg, a moment to know.
Where do you wander, with my heart's repose?
Tell me, my beloved, tell me where you go.

Beauty calls, weeping, alas, where does love flee?
Beauty calls, weeping, alas, where does love flee?
See, we do not go, you see,
Meeting eyes, forgetting every ache and low.
Where do you wander, with my heart's repose?
Tell me, my beloved, tell me where you go.
