basti me hai woh sannata
basti me hai woh sannata
jangal maat lage
basti me hai woh sannata
jangal maat lage

shaam dhale bhi ghar pahucho toh
shaam dhale bhi ghar pahucho toh
aadhi raat lage
aadhi raat lage
basti me hai woh sannata

khat me dil ki baate likhna
acchi baat nahi
acchi baat nahi
khat me dil ki baate likhna
acchi baat nhi
khat me dil ki baate likhna
acchi baat nhi
acchi baat nhi
ghar me itne log hai jaane
ghar me itne log hai jaane
kiske haath lage
kiske haath lage
basti me hai woh sannata

unse bichde dil ko ujade
barso beeth gye
barso beeth gye
unse bichde dil ko ujade
barso beeth gye
barso beeth gye
unse bichde dil ko ujade
barso beeth gye
barso beeth gye
aankho ka yeh haal abhi tak
aankho ka yeh haal abhi tak
kal ki baat lage
kal ki baat lage
basti me hai woh sannata

muthi band kiye baitha hu
koi dekh na le
koi dekh na le
ohhh muthi band kiye baitha hu
koi dekh na le
muthi band kiye baitha hu
koi dekh na le
koi dekh na le
ki chand pakadne ghar se nikhlu
ki chand pakadne ghar se niklu
jugnu haath lage
jugnu haath lage
basti me hai woh sannata
basti me hai woh sannata
jangal maat lage
shaam dhale bhi ghar pahucho toh
shaam dhale ghar pahucho toh
adhi raat lage
adhi raat lage
basti me hai woh sannata

The silence in this town,
Makes forests seem alive.
The silence in this town,
Makes forests seem alive.

Even when dusk falls and I return,
It feels like midnight's dive.
The silence in this town.

To write of the heart's secrets,
Is not a wise design,
To write of the heart's secrets,
Is not a wise design,
With so many souls within,
Whose hands might intertwine?
Whose hands might intertwine?
The silence in this town.

Years have passed since hearts have broken,
And ruins took their toll,
Years have passed since hearts have broken,
And ruins took their toll,
Yet the eyes still weep as if,
It happened yesterday, to the soul.
The silence in this town.

I sit here, hands clenched tight,
Lest someone should see,
Oh, I sit here, hands clenched tight,
Lest someone should see,
I sit here, hands clenched tight,
Lest someone should see,
For when I sought the moon,
Only fireflies touched me.
Only fireflies touched me.
The silence in this town,
Makes forests seem alive.
Even when dusk falls and I return,
Even when dusk falls and I return,
It feels like midnight's dive.
The silence in this town.
