aaye the dhadkan lekar dil me
aaye the dhadkan lekar dil me
chale to lekar jan chale
aaye the dhadkan lekar dil me
chale to lekar jan chale
naiya par lagane wale
khud bankar tufan chale
aaye the dhadkan lekar dil me

ab na tamannaye hai aur arman
suni dil ki mahak hai
tum jo chale to sath tumhare
tum jo chale to sath tumhare
uth kar jab mehman chale
tum jo chale to sath tumhare
uth kar jab mehman chale
dil ko tasalli dene ko
yaad bas apni chhod gaye
ruth ke jane wale ruth ke jane wale
ham par karke ye ehsan chale
ruth ke jane wale
ham par karke ye ehsan chale
aaye the dhadkan lekar dil me
chale to lekar jan chale
naiya par lagane wale
khud bankar tufan chale
aaye the dhadkan lekar dil me

They arrived, a heartbeat in the chest,
They arrived, a heartbeat in the chest,
Departed, taking life itself,
They arrived, a heartbeat in the chest,
Departed, taking life itself,
Those who promised safe harbor,
Became the storm, themselves.
They arrived, a heartbeat in the chest.

Now desires and hopes are stilled,
The heart's fragrance gone astray.
When you departed, with you went,
When you departed, with you went,
Guests, who rose and walked away.
When you departed, with you went,
Guests, who rose and walked away.
To console the weary heart,
Only memories remain,
You, who left in anger, you, who left in anger,
Bestowed this grace on us as you went,
You, who left in anger,
Bestowed this grace on us as you went,
They arrived, a heartbeat in the chest,
Departed, taking life itself,
Those who promised safe harbor,
Became the storm, themselves.
They arrived, a heartbeat in the chest.
