koi jab dard ka mara kabhi aansu bahata hai
koi jab dard ka mara kabhi aansu bahata hai
zamane se khuda kam hai zamana muskurata hai
zamane se khuda kam hai zamana muskurata hai

ha hmesha se yahi hota hai is duniya ki mehfil me
ha hmesha se yahi hota hai is duniya ki mehfil me
tamasha dekhne wala tamasha ban ke aata hai
tamasha dekhne wala tamasha ban ke aata hai
zamane se khuda kam hai zamana muskurata hai

jise dekha usi ne dil dukhaya is zamane me
jise dekha usi ne dil dukhaya is zamane me
yahi humne to dekha jaha tak yaad aata hai
yahi humne to dekha jaha tak yaad aata hai
zamane se khuda kam hai zamana muskurata hai

When the wounded weep, tears cascade,
When the wounded weep, their grief displayed,
God, it seems, feels less than the world's parade,
The world just smiles, a judgment made.

Yes, always thus, within this worldly stage,
Yes, always thus, in this age,
The spectator comes, a spectacle to engage,
The spectator comes, locked in life's cage,
God, it seems, feels less than the world's rage,
The world just smiles, a turning page.

Each heart I met, it brought a sting,
Each heart I met, its sorrow did bring,
This is the truth, the memory will sing,
This is the truth, the echoes swing,
God, it seems, feels less than what they fling,
The world just smiles, as mourners cling.
