Qaiser Ali Khan - My Heart is Empty lyrics

Deep, profound night, tick, tick, no other sound There was someone once, a Devi, so beautiful Like moon amidst the blackest clouds or far In the East, on Amawas' night, some avatar With a heavenly grandeur. Now my heart sinks in its emptiness. I am scared of its hollowness, Oh! my eyes hurt, they are wet, sore. Where am I? Nowhere. Tip, tip, helpless tears thread their way Rolling over pale cheeks and sink in the pillow. I close my eyes…oh the bloody redness! My avatar…the palms of my hands Are smooth yet how rough is my fate. Pain, loves me, just like she who Never sleeps at night…lovely…my black swan Sleep comes, cracking me, In my heart, the Devi shatters Darkness, closing in And my heart is empty.
