The state of my heart… should I tell you?
Should I tell you such a state?
[both lines x2]
No one comforts this heart.
It’s not my eyes that weep—my heart does.
God is displeased, I must appease Him… Ah!
dukh dard laae , bedard haae
ye dard ke mausam
dil sɛh na paae , aae bin bataae
dard ke mausam …
[ all stanza x2 ]
Sorrow brings pain, oh, cruel!
These seasons of pain
the heart cannot bear them, they come unannounced.
Seasons of pain…
[full stanza x2]
barse haiN nainaa , tarase haiN nainaa

aave na chain , nibhaave na rainaa kyuuN ?

My eyes poured rain, my eyes yearned …
Why, oh God? Tell me!
[both lines x2]
Peace does not come, the night does not end—why?
Let it come, grant my prayer!

allaah hii jaane kab tak sɛhnaa hai
sɛhnaa bhii hai to kuchh nahiiN kɛhnaa hai
chiix bhii luuN to sunaauuN kis ko ?
hamdrdoN ne to chup rɛhnaa hai
maiN hii kaaraNR sab kii dil-joii
merii kisii ko fikr na huii
ruuThaa xudaa , maiN manaavaaN … haae !
Only Allah knows how long I must endure,
and endure without a word.
What if I scream—who would even hear me?
Those who share my pain shall stay silent.
I am the solace for all,
yet no one cares for my sorrows.
God is displeased, I must appease Him… Ah!
maathe pe jo likhii thii qismat
is meN nahiiN thii kisii kii moHabbatt
aa …
taRap taRap ke , taras taras ke
dil kar jaave na koii baGaavat
umraaN meN jaagii maiN Dar Dar ke
yuuN ghaT ghaT ke , yuuN mar mar ke
ruuThaa xudaa , maiN manaavaaN … haae !
The fate written on my forehead
included no one’s love.
Ah…
Writhing in torment, wasting away,
so my heart won’t rebel.
For ages, I’ve woken trembling,
shrinking, dying bit by bit.
God is displeased, I must appease Him… Ah!

dard ke mausam (Hindi: मुक़द्दर, Urdu: دَرْد کے مَوسم) - "Seasons of Pain" or "Times of Pain" is a song composed and written by Pakistani musician Sahir Ali Bagga.
It serves as the main theme for the Pakistani TV drama Muqaddar (2023). This emotional Urdu ballad encapsulates the protagonists' suffering, with lyrics exploring the pain of unrequited love and resignation to fate.
The song features a duet: lead singer Sehar Gul Khan delivers a sweet yet broken interpretation, while Bagga himself provides deep, heartfelt refrains with verses like:
barse hain naina, tarse hain naina
My eyes have poured rain, my eyes have yearned
which underline the anguish central to the plot: a woman trapped between family duty and forbidden passions.
This song gained independent popularity on social networks, especially in Pakistan and India, on account of its raw emotional expressiveness.
