Alam bekhudi ka is kadar chaaya
Ki humpar hamara ikhtiyar na raha

Unse ruswa hokar bhi na muh mod paaye
Ki yeh farebi dil ab hamara na raha

An unfulfilled longing

So enchanting was your sight, that
My self was simply pulled away from me.

Such effulgence that I had to bow,
Paying my token of love did I kneel.

I worshipped you with such fervor,
Your divinity - even the world had to see.

So much have I now longed for you,
Tears of blood have filled the sea.

I pray for your eternal happiness,
This world of shattered dreams is not for me

Let not your sight rekindle my hopes,
Hence I slip away without taking your leave.

Lyrics: Mir Taqi Mir

Dikhayi Diye Yoon Ke Bekhudh Kiya
Humein Aapse Bhi Judaa Kar Chale

Jabhi Sajda Karte Hi karte Gayi -2
Haq-E-Bandigi Hum Adaa Kar Chale

Dikhayi Diye Yoon.....

Parastish Kiya Tak Ke Aye But Tujhe -2
Nazar Mein Sabonki Khuda Kar Gaye

Dikhayi Diye Yoon.....

Bahut Arzoo Thi Gali Ki Teri -2
So Ya Se Lahoo Mein Naha Kar Chale

Dikhayi Diye Yoon.....

Fakirana Ae Sada Kar Chale
Miya Khush Raho Hum Dua Kar Chale

Jo Tujh Bin Na Jeene Ka Kehte Hum
So Us Ahad Ko Ab Wafa Kar Chale

Koi Na Umeed Na Karte Nigahen
So Tum Humse Munh Bhi Chhupa Kar Chale
