jaane jaan ye jahaan,
karale saktiya,
lele chaahen jaan,
mitega na pyaar ka nishaan,
jaane jaan ye jahaan,
karale saktiya,
lele chaahen jaan,


ishk to hain bandagee meree nigao mein,
jaan koee shah nahin vafa kee nigao mein,
saans saans kah rahee hai mujhase alavida,
gam labo pe aa raha hai teree chaahato mein,
paanv mein bediya,navaj doob jaaye,
band ho jaba,
par mitega na pyaar ka nishaan.
alavida ai jahaan,
alavida jaanejaan.

Beloved, this world,
Unleash your strength,
Take even my life,
But love's mark will not fade.
Beloved, this world,
Unleash your strength,
Take even my life.

Love is my worship, in my eyes,
Life means nothing, in loyalty's gaze.
Each breath whispers farewell to me,
Sorrow touches my lips, in your desires.
Shackles on my feet, pulse may drown,
My tongue may be stilled,
But love's mark will not fade.
Farewell, O world,
Farewell, beloved.
