दर्द ए दिल दर्द ए जिगर
दिल में जगाया आपने
दर्द ए दिल दर्द ए जिगर दिल में जगाया आपने
पहले तो मैं शायर था

आशिक बनाया आपने
दर्द ए दिल दर्द ए जिगर दिल में जगाया आपनेदर्द ए दिल दर्द ए जिगर दिल में जगाया आपने
आपकी मदहोश नज़रें कर रही हैं शायरी
आपकी मदहोश नज़रें कर रही हैं शायरी
ये ग़ज़ल मेरी नहीं ये ग़ज़ल है आपकी
मैंने तो बस वो लिखा जो कुछ लिखाया आपने
दर्द ए दिल दर्द ए जिगर दिल में जगाया आपने

The song "Dard-e-Dil" by Mohammed Rafi is a beautiful and emotional ballad that expresses the feelings of a poet who has fallen in love with someone but is unable to express his feelings. The lyrics start with the poet thanking his love interest for awakening the pain of the heart and liver in him, which he had never experienced before. He then goes on to say that prior to this, he was just a poet, but she made him fall in love and become an ardent lover.
The second verse of the song talks about how the poet's intoxicated eyes were reading poetry and how the gazal he has written is not his but hers. He explains that he only wrote what she made him feel. The third verse is about how the shadows and the gathering of friends have all disappeared, leaving the poet alone with his thoughts. He wonders if someone has lifted the veil and shown his love for her to the world.
The final verse concludes with the poet's realization that they will soon part ways, and he does not know how to find her again. He states that he has not even told her his name, implying that she may not even have known him properly. The song is a poetic expression of love, longing, and heartbreak from a poet's perspective, and Mohammed Rafi's soulful rendition of the song adds to its emotional appeal.

Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Pehle toh main shayar tha Initially I was a poet
Pehle toh main shayar tha aashiq banaya aapne Initially I was a poet, but you made me a lover
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Aapki madhosh nazarein kar rahi hai shayari Your intoxicated eyes are singing poems
Aapki madhosh nazarein kar rahi hai shayari Your intoxicated eyes are singing poems
Yeh ghazal meri nahi, yeh ghazal hai aapki It's not my song, it's your song
Maine toh bas woh likha joh kuch likhaya aapne I simply wrote what you made me write
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Kab kahan sab kho gayi When and where did they get lost
Jitni bhi thi parchaiyan All the shadows that were there
Uth gayi yaaron ki mehfil The gathering of friends ended
Ho gayi tanhaiyan And there was loneliness
Kab kahan sab kho gayi When and where did they get lost
Jitni bhi thi parchaiyan All the shadows that were there
Uth gayi yaaron ki mehfil The gathering of friends ended
Ho gayi tanhaiyan And there was loneliness
Kya kiya shayad koi parda giraya aapne What did you do, may be you dropped a curtain
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Aur thodi der mein bas hum juda ho jayenge Now we'll separate in just a few moments
Aur thodi der mein bas hum juda ho jayenge Now we'll separate in just a few moments
Aapko dhoondunga kaise raste kho jayenge How will I search for you in these lost paths
Naam tak bhi toh nahi apna bataya aapne You didn't even tell me your name
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
Pehle toh main shayar tha aashiq banaya aapne Initially I was a poet, but you made me a lover
Dard-e-dil, dard-e-jigar dil mein jagaya aapne You awakened the pain in my heart
