kuch log jeeti bazi apne se harte hai
mit kar kisi ki dunia kaise sawarte hai
kuch log jeeti bazi apne se harte hai
mit kar kisi ki dunia kaise sawarte hai

kuch raaste hai jinki manzil nahi hai koi
kuch kashtiya hai jinka sahil nahi hai koi
kuch raaste hai jinki manzil nahi hai koi
kuch kashtiya hai jinka sahil nahi hai koi
gumnam zindagi yu kitne gujarte hai
mit kar kisi ki dunia kaise sawarte hai

khud bagba ne fuka hai mere aashiyan ko
majbur hoke maine chhod a hai gulsitan ko
khud bagba ne fuka hai mere aashiyan ko
majbur hoke maine chhod a hai gulsitan ko
us gulsitan ke bande bemaut maarte hai
mit kar kisi ki dunia kaise sawarte hai

uth kar yu berukhi se mehfil se jane wale
yu chhin lena na hamse didar ke ujale
uth kar yu berukhi se mehfil se jane wale
yu chhin lena na hamse didar ke ujale
ruk ja ke mere aansu tujhko pukarte hai
mit kar kisi ki dunia kaise sawarte hai

Some, from victories, craft defeat with their own hands,
Erasing themselves, to build another's lands.
Some, from victories, craft defeat with their own hands,
Erasing themselves, to build another's lands.

Some paths exist, with no destination's gleam,
Some vessels drift, bereft of shore's warm dream.
Some paths exist, with no destination's gleam,
Some vessels drift, bereft of shore's warm dream.
Such nameless lives, how silently they wane,
Erasing themselves, to build another's domain.

The cruel hand of fate, my dwelling's embered core,
Forced from my garden, I could bear no more.
The cruel hand of fate, my dwelling's embered core,
Forced from my garden, I could bear no more.
Those in that garden, death's embrace they find,
Erasing themselves, to build another's mind.

To rise and leave, with cold indifference sown,
Do not steal from us, the light that we have known.
To rise and leave, with cold indifference sown,
Do not steal from us, the light that we have known.
Stay, for my tears, your presence now implore,
Erasing themselves, to build another's door.
