o yaaron maaf karna kuch kehene aaya hu
kuch apne baare mein samjhane aaya hu
o yaaron maaf karna kuch kehene aaya hu
kuch apne baare mein samjhane aaya hu

main hu pardesi naujawaan dil me rehane aaya hu
dil me rehane aaya hu
o yaaron maaf karna kuch kehene aaya hu
kuch apne baare mein samjhane aaya hu

pardes main kuch accha na lage
pardes main kuch accha na lage
pardes main kuch accha na lage
kuch bhi to yahaa sachha na lage
chahat ka yaha koi mol nahi
do pyar bhare kahi bol nahi

apnone mujhe thukaraya hai
gairo ne mujhe apnaya hai
ghar ki dehlij bulati hai
apno ki bahot yad aati hai
apno ki bahot yad aati hai
hum dard hu me tera hum dard hu me tera
mat soch paraya hu mat soch paraya hu

o yaaron maaf karna kuch kehene aaya hu
kuch apne baare mein samjhane aaya hu
main hu pardesi naujawan dil me rehane aaya hu
dil me rehane aaya hu dil me rehane aaya hu
dil me rehane aaya hu

Friends, forgive me, I come to speak,
To unveil a piece of my own being.
Friends, forgive me, I come to speak,
To unveil a piece of my own being.

I am a stranger, a youth, in search of a heart,
Come to dwell within your heart.
Friends, forgive me, I come to speak,
To unveil a piece of my own being.

In foreign lands, nothing feels right,
In foreign lands, nothing feels right,
In foreign lands, nothing feels right,
Nothing here feels true, no light.
Desire holds no value here,
No tender words, no love to hear.

My own have cast me out,
Strangers have taken me about.
My home's threshold calls to me,
My loved ones, I long to see.
My loved ones, I long to see.
I am your pain, your shared pain,
Don't think of me as foreign, refrain.

Friends, forgive me, I come to speak,
To unveil a piece of my own being.
I am a stranger, a youth, in search of a heart,
Come to dwell within your heart, within your heart,
Within your heart.
