The kohl of eyes, it has dissolved,
The garland in the braid, unwound, resolved.
The bindi's gleam, it starts to fade,
The bangle rings, a stubborn serenade.
Why separation, oh why this plight?
Oh, Lord, what deed have you brought to light?
Where life burns, a lamp's soft gleam,
Where life burns, a fractured dream.
Where life burns, a fading stream.
Two hearts alone, for love they yearn,
Fire rains down, in monsoon's turn.
Two hearts alone, for love they bleed,
Fire rains down, a planted seed.
All we owned, in love we lost,
Victory's song, to sorrow's cost.
Fate betrayed, a hidden sign,
Where life burns, a pain divine.
Where life burns, a weeping shrine.
Where life burns, a shadowed line.
Why must we weep, these tears of red?
Why bear this weight, this grief, this dread?
Why must we weep, a crimson tide?
Why bear this burden deep inside?
The heart, it broke, a shattered toy,
Why must this be, our life's employ?
The world disgraced, a poisoned kiss,
Where life burns, in shadowed bliss.
Where life burns, a silent hiss.
Where life burns, a hollow abyss.
The kohl of eyes, it has dissolved,
The garland in the braid, unwound, resolved.
The bindi's gleam, it starts to fade,
The bangle rings, a stubborn serenade.
Why separation, oh why this plight?
Oh, Lord, what deed have you brought to light?
Where life burns, a lamp's soft gleam,
Where life burns, a fractured dream.
Where life burns, a fading stream.
Where life burns, a silent gleam.
Oh Lord, where life burns, a whispered scream.
Where life burns, a fading beam.
