zindagi humse hui hai dur
pyar ne kiya hume majbur
kisi ko yaad karte hai
na jite hai na marte hai
zindagi humse hui hai dur
pyar ne kiya hume majbur
kisi ko yaad karte hai
na jite hai na marte hai

hua hai gam se dil pamal
na puchho na puchho
mujhse mera haal
hua hai gam se dil pamal
na puchho mujhse mera haal
bana tha dil me jo mehman
use haye dil na saka pahchan
usi ko yaad karte hai
na jite hai na marte hai

mitane ke liye kya aashiya
koi banata hai
chaman ko baagbaa kab
apne hatho se jalata hai
hui kuch humse aisi bhul
khile na armano ke phul
magar ab aah bharte hai
na jite hai na marte hai

Life has drifted, a distant shore,
Love's tide pulled me, forevermore.
Memories linger, a haunting tune,
Neither living, nor beneath the moon.
Life has drifted, a distant shore,
Love's tide pulled me, forevermore.
Memories linger, a haunting tune,
Neither living, nor beneath the moon.

Sorrow's grip, a crushing weight,
Ask not of me, my desolate state.
Sorrow's grip, a crushing weight,
Ask not of me, my desolate state.
A guest once held within my core,
Whom heart's eye failed to know before.
Remembering, a spectral plea,
Neither living, nor meant to be.

To raze a nest, a cruel design,
Who builds a garden, then sets it to decline?
A misstep taken, a shadowed blight,
Dreams unbloomed, lost to endless night.
A misstep taken, a shadowed blight,
Dreams unbloomed, lost to endless night.
