tum baithe ho lekin
jate dekh raha hu
tum baithe ho lekin
jate dekh raha hu
main tanhai ke din
aate dekh raha hu
tum baithe ho lekin
jate dekh raha hu

aane wale lamhe
se dil sehma hai
aane wale lamhe
se dil sehma hai
tumko bhi darte
ghabrate dekh raha hu
tum baithe ho lekin
jate dekh raha hu

kab yaado ka zakham
bhare kab daag mite
kab yaado ka zakham
bhare kab daag mite
kitne din lagte hai
bhulate dekh raha hu
tum baithe ho lekin
jate dekh raha hu

uski aankho me bhi
kajal faila hai
uski aankho me bhi
kajal faila hai
main bhi mudke jate
jate dekh raha hu
main tanhai ke din
aate dekh raha hu
tum baithe ho lekin
jate dekh raha hu

You are here, yet I see
your leaving, a distant decree.
You are here, yet I see
the desolate days drawing near to me.
You are here, yet I see
your leaving, a distant decree.

My heart shrinks, anticipating
the moments that are now creating.
My heart shrinks, anticipating
the moments that are now creating.
And I see you, too, trembling, afraid,
as the future unfolds, a shadowed parade.
You are here, yet I see
your leaving, a distant decree.

When will the wounds of memory mend,
when will the old scars transcend?
When will the wounds of memory mend,
when will the old scars transcend?
How many days it takes to forget,
I watch them pass, a somber threat.
You are here, yet I see
your leaving, a distant decree.

In her eyes, a darkness spread,
a smudge of kohl, a silent dread.
In her eyes, a darkness spread,
a smudge of kohl, a silent dread.
And I, too, turn to watch your flight,
as you depart into the fading light.
I see the desolate days drawing near to me.
You are here, yet I see
your leaving, a distant decree.
