ye na thi hamari kismat haye
ye na thi hamari kismat ke visal-e-yar hota
agar aur jite rahte
agar aur jite rahte, yahi intazar hota
ye na thi hamari kismat haye
ye na thi hamari kismat

tere bade pe jiye ham to ye jan chhut jana
tere bade pe jiye ham to ye jan chhut jana
is khushi se mar na jate
is khushi se mar na jate agar etabar hota
ye na thi hamari kismat haye
ye na thi hamari kismat ke visal-e-yar hota
ye na thi hamari kismat haye
ye na thi hamari kismat

ye kaha ki dosti hai ke bane hai dost nase
ye kaha ki dosti hai ke bane hai dost nase
koi chara saz hota
koi chara saz hota, koi gam gusar hota
ye na thi hamari kismat haye
ye na thi hamari kismat ke visal-e-yar hota
ye na thi hamari kismat haye
ye na thi hamari kismat

It was not fated, alas,
it was not fated for union with the beloved.
Had I lived longer,
had I lived longer, this is all that would remain: waiting.
It was not fated, alas,
it was not fated.

To die at your threshold, to breathe my last,
to die at your threshold, to breathe my last.
Wouldn't I have perished in that joy?
Wouldn't I have perished in that joy, if trust had been there?
It was not fated, alas,
it was not fated for union with the beloved.
It was not fated, alas,
it was not fated.

What friendship is this, that friends become advisors?
What friendship is this, that friends become advisors?
If only there was a healer,
if only there was a healer, a comforter of grief.
It was not fated, alas,
it was not fated for union with the beloved.
It was not fated, alas,
it was not fated.
