aashiyane ki baat karte ho
dil jalane ki baat karte ho

you talk of nests and refuges again
you talk of very things that cause me pain

sari duniya ke ranj-o-gham de kar
muskurane ki baat karte ho

after giving me a world of pain
smiling then you ask me to remain

hum ko apni khabar nahin yaro
tum zamane ki baat karte ho

friends when i have no clue about myself
you talk to me about the world in vain

zikr mera suna to chadh ke kaha
kis diwane ki baat karte ho

my mention makes her churlishly complain
"why do you talk of him? he is insane"

hadsa tha guzar gaya hoga
kis ke jaane ki baat karte ho

it was an accident it would have passed
her love for me why do you now explain
