mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai
mere nigaho ke asma se, jamine dil par utar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai

ye kaise mumkin hai hamnashino, ye kaise mumkin hai hamnashino
ki dil ko dil ki khabar na pahunche, ki dil ko dil ki khabar na pahunche
unhe bhi ham yad ate honge, ki jinko ham yad kar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai

tumhare hi dam kadam se thi, tumhare hi dam kadam se thi
jinaki maut aur jindagi abarat, jinaki maut aur jindagi abarat
bichad ke tumse wo namarad, abb na ji rahe hai na mar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai

isi mohabbat ki rojo shab ham, isi mohabbat ki rojo shab ham
sunaya karte the dastane, sunaya karte the dastane
isi mohabbat ka nam lete huye bhi, ham aaj dar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai

chale hai thode hi dur tak, bas wo sath mere salim phir bhi
chale hai thode hi dur tak, bas wo sath mere salim phir bhi
ye bat kaise mai bhul jau, ki ham kabhi hamsafar rahe hai
mere nigaho ke asma se, jamine dil par utar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo gujar rahe hai
mere khayalo ki rahagujar se, wo dekhiye wo

Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, a fleeting grace.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, in time and space.
From heavens held within my gaze,
To heart's own earth, they find their place.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, a fading trace.

How can it be, my kindred souls,
How can it be, this mystery untold,
That hearts remain unknown to hearts?
That hearts remain unknown to hearts?
Perhaps they too remember us,
The ones we hold in thought's embrace.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, a vanished face.

By your dear presence bloomed their days,
By your dear presence bloomed their days,
Whose life and death, your touch defined,
Whose life and death, your touch defined,
Bereft of you, they linger now,
Neither living, nor deceased.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, a fading grace.

In love's embrace, we spoke each day,
In love's embrace, we spoke each day,
Told tales of love, in every way,
Told tales of love, in every way.
Yet, trembling, now, we speak its name,
While fear's dark shadows we must face.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, a fleeting trace.

They walked a while, a little way,
They walked a while, a little way,
With me, dear Salim, side by side,
With me, dear Salim, side by side,
How can I ever now forget,
That once, we walked the same time and space?
From heavens held within my gaze,
To heart's own earth, they find their place.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass, a fading trace.
Across the byways of my mind,
Behold, they pass...
