My whole being
My whole heart
Whether you accept it or not

Each and every stone
Cries out in wonder and amazement

You cannot take it away from me
You cannot take it away

What can I write
How can I pen
In what tongue can I portray

High and heavy walls
Lovers and moths burnt in the flame

You cannot take it away from me
You cannot take it away

I have come tonight from Adelabad (what can I write)
I have returned tonight from Adelabad (how can I pen)
I have come tonight from Adelabad

Each and every stone
Cries out in wonder and amazement

Each and every stone
Cries out in wonder and amazement

You cannot take it away from me
You cannot take it away
