ऐ ग़म-ए-दिल क्या करूँ
What should I do, O sorrow of my heart?

What should I do, O madness of my heart?

मुझको क़िस्मत ने बनाया, गदले पानी का कंवल
Destiny has made me like a lotus born in muddy waters

All my desires have dissolved into the dust of disappointment

I had no idea my fate would take such a turn

aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~
aye gham-e-dil kya karun, aye vahashat-e-dil kya karun
kya karun, kya karun
aye gham-e-dil kya karun, aye vahashat-e-dil kya karun
kya karun, kya karun, aye gham-e-dil kya karun

mujhko qismat ne banayaa, gandale paani ka kamal
khaaq mein mil-mil gaye sab, aarzuon ke mahal
kya khabar thi yun meri taqadir jayegi badal
aye gham-e-dil kya karun, aye vahashat-e-dil kya karun
kya karun, kya karun, aye gham-e-dil kya karun

ruthane vale kisi, majaboor se ruthega kya
jis tarah qismat ne luta, yun koi lutega kya
aye mere tute huye dil, aur tu tutega kya
aye gham-e-dil kya karun,aye vahashat-e-dil kya karun
kya karun, kya karun, aye gham-e-dil kya karun
aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~aa~

क्या करूँ, क्या करूँ, ऐ वहशत-ए-दिल क्या करूँ

मुझको क़िस्मत ने बनाया, गंदले पानी का कंवल
ख़ाक में मिल-मिल गए सब, आरजुओं के ये महल
क्या खबर थी यूँ मेरी तक़दीर जाएगी बदल
ऐ ग़म-ए-दिल क्या करूँ, ऐ वहशत-ए-दिल क्या करूँ
क्या करूँ, क्या करूँ, ऐ ग़म-ए-दिल क्या करूँ

रूठने वाले किसी, मजबूर से रूठेगा क्या
जिस तरह क़िस्मत ने लूटा, यूँ कोई लूटेगा क्या
अये ये मेरे टूटे हुए दिल, और तू टूटेगा क्या
ऐ ग़म-ए-दिल क्या करूँ, ऐ वहशत-ए-दिल क्या करूँ

This song is written by An Unknown Mr Tandon What a Great Combination of his word and of Shri Majaj ji We should regard Ashaji for giving her The Golden Voice. Thanks Mr. Sardar Malik hi { father of Annu Malik hi} Giving this Immortal music of this song. OH Talat ji you are Immortal by giving your Makmali Voice. Salute to All Who participated in this work

@aryawartaabhishek6654

Actually originally this poetry has written by mazaz

@UzmaRehman-cj2vn

I think asrarul huq majaz is not unknown

@sharmakdevendra

What a soul stirring poetry . Asha ji has sung it like original by Talat Mehmood.
Thanks for this rare upload.

@ShivKumarPurohit

Both versions are the originals and were both released on the same Columbia 78RPM record. Because Talat's version is more famous, it is considered to be original and this version is considered to be a 'version song'. Both were included in the film but this one inevitably being picturized on Shyama instead. I just thought I would mention it.

@BAMBOO-MONK

An absolute timeless gem of a nazm. What a flawless and soul stirring rendition!

@moizakbarali5245

Asha Bhosle has given her best & very rare nazm incomparable between her & Talat Mahmood..Both singers have excelled very well

@bharatibhattacharjee5430

Great Talat n Asha did complete justice to both the versions of the song in their unique ways.

@BharatDesai6

Very true. 🌹

@jasbongy

Aur mere tute huye dil aur to tutega kaya? Very very beautiful lyrics.and sung very soulfully by Brilliant singer Asha B. ji. 10***********regards.
