paas ho tum magar karib nahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi
khaid kahi aur nasib kahi
khaid kahi aur nasib kahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi
khaid kahi aur nasib kahi
khaid kahi aur nasib kahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi

lab se duwa aankho mein hai
ya kuchh khwab paresha hai
jaha shama jale waha dhuwa uthe
parvane kyun bechain se hai
lab se duwa aankho mein hai
ya kuchh khwab paresha hai
jaha shama jale waha dhuwa uthe
parvane kyun bechain se hai
chhedne se har jakham phir ubhar aata hai
jab koi hadse gujarta hai to gujar jaata hai
pakh daman jo kare saf to wo mar jaata hai
badniyat wale badniyat wale tu bachke
kidhar jaata hai fasla aamir garib nahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi dil kahi aur nasib kahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi

fitrat mein jiski nafrat andaz-ae-mohabbat kya jaane
uske aage rona kya jo raaz-ae-baat naa jaane
fitrat mein jiski nafrat andaz-ae-mohabbat kya jaane
uske aage rona kya jo raaz-ae-baat naa jaane
ye ashk to kisi ki bas amanat hai
parindo se chhalke to tumhari shaamat hai
hasino se khel naa karna tumhari aadat hai
yaad rakhna ke yaad rakhna ke ab teri kayamat hai
wakt mehbub mera rakib nahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi
hai dil kahi aur nasib kahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi

havas ke maare tum saare naa itne yu naadan bano
bahot der haivan bane kuchh der to ab insaan bano
havas ke maare tum saare naa itne yu naadan bano
bahot der haivan bane kuchh der to ab insaan bano
ek aurat ki sharafat ko lalkara tumne
ek kamsin ke ghunghat ko utara tumne
tutegi aasma tumpe aur ye jami nigal jayegi ye jindagani
ye jindagani teri maut mein dhal jayegi
kehar khuda ka baat ajib nahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi
khaid kahi aur nasib kahi
paas ho tum magar karib nahi

You are present, yet distant still,
Present you are, but close you're not.
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere,
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere.
You are present, yet distant still,
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere.
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere,
You are present, yet distant still.

From lips, a prayer, in eyes, a plight,
Or dreams that wander, lost to night.
Where candles burn, smoke ascends,
Why are moths so restless, with no end?
From lips, a prayer, in eyes, a plight,
Or dreams that wander, lost to night.
Where candles burn, smoke ascends,
Why are moths so restless, with no end?
Each wound, when touched, begins to bleed,
When one transgresses, it's a need.
Pure robes, if soiled, soon concede,
You of ill intent, beware, take heed,
Where do you flee? Distance is not rich or poor,
You are present, yet distant still,
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere,
You are present, yet distant still.

One whose nature knows no love's embrace,
What can they know of tears, of grace?
To weep before them, futile pain,
Who can't the secrets of the heart contain.
One whose nature knows no love's embrace,
What can they know of tears, of grace?
To weep before them, futile pain,
Who can't the secrets of the heart contain.
These tears, a trust, a borrowed tear,
If spilled for birds, then doom is near.
To play with beauties, is your way,
Remember well, remember this day,
Your reckoning, it draws so near,
Time, my beloved, is no rival here,
You are present, yet distant still,
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere,
You are present, yet distant still.

Consumed by lust, so foolish, be,
Too long a beast, now human, see.
Consumed by lust, so foolish, be,
Too long a beast, now human, see.
You challenged a woman's virtue's light,
Unveiled the veil of a maiden bright.
The heavens will break, the earth shall sigh,
This life of yours, in death will lie,
This life of yours, will surely die.
God's wrath descends, a strange decree,
You are present, yet distant still,
Imprisoned here, destiny elsewhere,
You are present, yet distant still.
