baithe hai rahguzar par dil kaa deeya jalaaye
shaayad vo dard jaane, shaayad vo laut aaye
baithe hai rahguzar par dil kaa deeya jalaaye
baithe hai rahguzar par

aakaash par sitaare chal chal ke tham gae hai
aakaash par sitaare chal chal ke tham gae hai
shabnam ke sard aansu phulo pe jam gae hai
ham par nahi kisi par ai kaash raham khaaye
shaayad vo dard jaane, shaayad vo laut aaye
baithe hai rahguzar par

raaho me kho gai hai hasrat bhari nigaahe
raaho me kho gai hai hasrat bhari nigaahe
kab se lachak rahi hai armaan ki narm baahe
har mod par tamannaa aahat usi ki paaye
shaayad vo dard jaane, shaayad vo laut aaye
baithe hai rahguzar par dil kaa deeya jalaaye
baithe hai rahguzar par

Upon the path of passing, I sit with heart aflame,
A lamp of longing lit, whispering his name.
Perhaps he'll feel the ache, perhaps he'll turn and claim
This space where hope still breathes, a flickering, fragile game.
Upon the path of passing...

Across the heavens, stars have journeyed, then grown still,
Across the heavens, stars have journeyed, on the hill.
The icy tears of dawn on petals now congeal,
And pity seeks another heart for which to feel.
Oh, if not for me, for someone, let compassion reel.
Perhaps he'll feel the ache, perhaps he'll turn and heal.
Upon the path of passing...

The roads have swallowed glances, heavy with desire,
The roads have swallowed glances, burning like a fire.
For ages, yearning arms have reached, with soft attire,
And every bend unveils the echo of his pyre.
For him, all dreams aspire...
Perhaps he'll feel the ache, perhaps he'll turn and climb higher.
Upon the path of passing, I sit with heart aflame,
Upon the path of passing...
