mujhe khabar thi, wo mera nahin paraya tha
mujhe khabar thi, wo mera nahin paraya tha
par dhadkanon ne usi ko khuda banaya tha
mujhe khabar thi, wo mera nahin paraya tha

main khaab khaab jise, dhundhta phira barso
main khaab khaab jise, dhundhta phira barso
wo ashq ashq meri aankh mein samaya tha
wo ashq ashq meri aankh mein samaya tha
par dhadkanon ne usi ko khuda banaya tha
mujhe khabar thi, wo mera nahin paraya tha

tera kasur nahin jaan, meri tanhai
tera kasur nahin jaan, meri tanhai
tera kasur nahin jaan, meri tanhai
ye rog maine hi
ye rog maine hi khud jaan ko lagaya tha
ye rog maine hi khud jaan ko lagaya tha
par dhadkanon ne usi ko khuda banaya tha
mujhe khabar thi, wo mera nahin paraya tha
mujhe khabar thi, wo mera nahin paraya tha

I knew it, a stranger, not mine to hold,
I knew it, a stranger, a story untold,
Yet my heartbeats crowned him, a god in my soul.
I knew it, a stranger, his claim uncontrolled.

The dream I chased, for years, a phantom's quest,
The dream I chased, forever unblessed,
He was a tear, in my eye, at rest,
He was a tear, my soul's unrest.
Yet my heartbeats crowned him, a god manifest.
I knew it, a stranger, his will expressed.

It’s not your fault, my love, this solitude,
It’s not your fault, this aching attitude,
It’s not your fault, my love, misunderstood.
This sickness, by my own hand, imbued,
This sickness, my own choice, pursued.
Yet my heartbeats crowned him, a deity viewed.
I knew it, a stranger, the dream eschewed.
I knew it, a stranger, forever subdued.
