humsafar hota koi to bant lete duriyan
humsafar hota koi to bant lete duriyan
raah chalte log kya samjhe meri majburiya
humsafar hota koi to bant lete duriyan

muskurate khwab chunti gun gunati ye nazar
muskurate khwab chunti gun gunati ye nazar
kis tarah samjhe meri kismat ki namanzuriya
raah chalte log kya samjhe meri majburiya
humsafar hota koi to bant lete duriyan

hadison ki bheed hai chalta hua ye karwan
hadison ki bheed hai chalta hua ye karwan
zindagi ka naam hai lachari majburiya
fir kisi ne aaj chheda zikr manzil is tarah
fir kisi ne aaj chheda zikr manzil is tarah
dil ke daman se lipatne aa gayi hain duriyan
raah chalte log kya samjhe meri majburiya
humsafar hota koi to bant lete duriyan

If a companion walked beside, distance we'd divide,
If a companion walked beside, distance we'd divide,
But passersby, how could they know the burdens I hide?
If a companion walked beside, distance we'd divide.

Smiling dreams, a humming gaze did select,
Smiling dreams, a humming gaze did select,
But how can they grasp fate's unwelcome defect?
But passersby, how could they know the burdens I hide?
If a companion walked beside, distance we'd divide.

A caravan of hardship, a crowded throng,
A caravan of hardship, a crowded throng,
Life's name is helplessness, where I don't belong,
Then someone spoke of the journey, today,
Then someone spoke of the journey, today,
And from my heart, the distancing does stay.
But passersby, how could they know the burdens I hide?
If a companion walked beside, distance we'd divide.
