yun wafa ke sare nibhao gham ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho
koi baat aisi kaho sanam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

be faithful to all the sorrows of loyalty so we may believe in deception too
say something to me my dearest one, so we may believe in deceit too

ye dayar-e-shisha-farosh hai yahan aainon ki bisat kya
yahan is tarah se rakho qadam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

what is the strength of glass in this city of mirror-sellers
step in here in such a manner so we may believe in deceit too

meri chahaton mein ghurur ho dil-e-na-tawan mein surur ho
tumhein ab ke khana hai wo qasam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

let there be pride in my loves and intoxication in my frail heart
this time you must take that vow so we may believe in deceit too

yahi baat kah do pukar ke wahi silsile rahen pyar ke
isi naz mein rahe phir bharam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

announces it out loud so that the series of love remain the same
so i may believe in the myth that there can be belief in deceit too

mere ishq ka ye meyar ho ki visal bhi na shumar ho
isi e'tibar pe ho karam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

may the standard of my love be such and union so immeasurable
and the favours of trust be such that we may believe in deceit too

mere intizar ko kya khabar tumhein ikhtiyar hai is qadar
mujhe do saliqa ye kam se kam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

little does may patience know that you have such boundless rights
grant me at least enough grace so we may believe in deceit too

jahan zikr-e-mehr-o-wafa mile wahin 'indira' ka qalam chale
ye kitab-e-ishq mein ho raqam ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho

let indira weild her pen only where there is talk of mercy and loyalty
let it be inscribed in the book of love so we may believe in deceit too
