dhadkane khamosh hai kuch kehti nahi ye aakhari alvida na ho
chahate ankho se behti nahi ye aakhari alvida na ho
iss dard dil mein, dil mein rehne do jo khauf hai
ankhon se, ankho se kehne do dukh ki nadi chup chap behne do
jo kehna hai tum dheere se keh do ye aakhari alvida na ho
ye aakhari alvida na ho

dhadkane khamosh hai kuch kehti nahi ye aakhari alvida na ho
sab yaaden, jo bandhe the bandhan kajal, bindiya
hathon mein kangan, mehki rehti thi menhdi
gata rehta tha sawan in yado ko sapno mein rehne do
ye aakhari alvida na ho, ye aakhari alvida na ho
dhadkane khamosh hai kuch kehti nahi ye aakhari alvida na ho
chahate ankho se behti nahi ye aakhari alvida na ho
ye aakhari alvida na ho

The heartbeats hush, they speak no word, lest this be farewell's final plea.
Desires unseen, their tears unshed, lest this be farewell's final decree.
Let pain reside, deep in the core, the fear concealed, a secret kept.
From eyes, let it cascade and pour, a silent river, sorrow wept.
Speak softly now, your whispered plea, lest this be farewell's final breath.
Lest this be farewell, eternally.

The heartbeats hush, they speak no word, lest this be farewell's final breath.
The memories, the bonds we spun, of kohl and bindis, sacred art,
The bangles' chime, the henna spun, that bloomed in life, a beating heart.
The monsoon's song, in dreams remain, let these dear echoes softly sleep,
Lest this be farewell's final stain, lest this be farewell, sorrows deep.
The heartbeats hush, they speak no word, lest this be farewell's final plea.
Desires unseen, their tears unshed, lest this be farewell's final decree.
Lest this be farewell, eternally.
