Udasiyan saath jo na latey to aur kya kerte
Na jashn-e-shola manaate to aur kya kerte
A ndhera mangne aaya tha roshni ki bheek
Hum apna ghar na jalaate tou aur kya kerte
Mein ne masoom baharon mein tumhein dekha hai
In haseen raah-guzaaron mein tumhein dekha hai
Mere mehboob teri parda-nashini ki qasam
Mein ne ashkon ki qataron mein tumhein dekha hai Jab bhi rudaad-e-gham sunate hein
Ashq palkon pe muskurate hein
Jin ki khaatir luta diya sub kuch
Wohi mera nishaan mita′te hein
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Qismat mein naumeedi-o-hasrat hai! kya karoon?
Us bewafa se mujh ko mohabbat hai! kya karoon?
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Yaqeen e ishq to dekho ke us ke wadoon per
Faraib khaye bohot phir bhi aitebar kiya... Acha
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Mein jiss ke aik isharay pe jaan waar aaya
Usay na meri mohabbat ka aitebar aaya... Acha
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Mein ker raha tha faqt tajurba mohabbat ka
Ub aise aag lagi hai bujha nahi sakta
Yeh maanta hoon ke mein tujh ko paa nahi satka
Tera khayal magar dil se ja nahi sakta... Acha
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Zulf rukh se hata ke baat karo
Raat ko din banaa ke baat karo
Yeh bhi andaaz-e-guftugu hai koi
Jab bhi karo dil dukha ke baat karo... Acha
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Beewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Her aik baat pe kehte ho tum ke tu kya hai
Tumhe batao yeh andaz-e-guftugu kya hai
Bewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Raag...
Na sahay teri naseehat mere kiss kaam aaye hai
Naik o bad sujat nahi jab dil kaheen lag gaye hai... kiyoon ke
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Hazrat e nah se jo aaye deeda-o-dil farsh-e-raah
Yeh to samjhao koi woh aake samjhaein ge kya... kiyoon ke
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Marne walay to apni jaan se kahein
Yaar ki bewafaiyan na gayeen
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Yaar kuch bhi ho yaar hota hai
Kya howa un ke saath gar hai raqeeb
Phool ke saath khaar hota hai
Phool ke saath khaar hota hai
Phool ke saath khaar hota hai
Phool ke saath khaar hota hai
Phool ke saath khaar hota hai
Jab woh aate nahi shab e waada
Maut ka intizaar hota hai (Vocables and Chants)
Ishq pe zindagi ka ey Purnam
Sara daromadaar hota hai
Bewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai
Bewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai... Aaa!

The song "Be Wafa" by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is a beautiful love ballad that talks about the pain of unrequited love. The first verse talks about the sadness and pain that the singer feels when his lover is not with him, and how he cannot celebrate happy moments in her absence.

He then goes on to say that he has seen her in every beautiful place, every season of life, and even in his tears. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Bewafa se bhi pyaar hota hai" which means "love exists even for the unfaithful", emphasizing the fact that love may not always be reciprocated but it never dies. The second verse talks about the singer's unwavering faith in his loved one despite all their broken promises and lies.
In the third verse, the singer talks about how he had sacrificed everything for his loved one, even when she had taken it all for granted. He says that love is a trial that has engulfed him, and despite the fire that has spread, he cannot put it out. The singer then talks about how he longs to talk to his loved one, how he wants her to remove her veil and show her true self. He laments the fact that he cannot be with her but knows that love continues to exist even for the faithless.
Overall, "Be Wafa" is an emotional song that portrays the pain and enduring nature of love. No matter how unfaithful or disloyal the beloved may be, the love never fades away. The lyrics are beautifully complemented by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's soulful voice and music.
