tum ho yahin kahin ya phir kahin nahi
phir wahi phir wahi saundhi yaadein puraani phir wahi
phir wahi phir wahi bisri bhooli kahaani phir wahi
phir wahi phir wahi jhootha vaada aasmaan ka mere
chanda aadha dil kyun joda agar dil dukhana tha
aaye kyun thhe agar tumko jaana tha
jaate jaate labon pe bahana tha
phir wahi phir wahi phir wahi phir wahi

toote sapno ke choore phir wahi phir wahi phir wahi
roothe armaan adhoore phir wahi phir wahi phir wahi
gham ka jaaya, dil mera dard se, kyun bhar aaya?
aansu ponchhe hi kyun ‘gar rulana tha
qissa likha hi kyun ‘gar mitana tha
jaate jaate labon pe bahana tha
phir wahi phir wahi wo wo
phir wahi phir wahi
saundhi yaadein puraani phir wahi
phir wahi phir wahi
bisri bhooli kahaani phir wahi

Are you here, or nowhere at all?
Again, again.
The scent of old memories, again,
Again, again.
A forgotten story, again,
Again, again.

A false promise, the moon's half-face,
Why mend the heart, if to break it was your aim?
Why come at all, if departure was your game?
As you left, a pretense on your lips you claimed,
Again, again.

Again, again.
The daggers of shattered dreams, again,
Again, again.
A broken longing, incomplete, again,
Again, again, the offspring of sorrow,
Why did my heart overflow with woe?

Why wipe away tears, if to make me weep?
Why write the tale, if to erase it deep?
As you left, a pretense on your lips you'd keep,
Again, again.

Again, again.
The scent of old memories, again,
Again, again.
A forgotten story, again.
