apna hai tu begana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi
apna hai tu begana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi
ye sach hai afsana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi

aankhe na jane, dil janata hai
rang lahun ka lahun pahchanta hai
rang lahun ka lahun pahchanta hai
ye parada uth jaye
shayad yaad aa jaye
ruk ja zara abhi jana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi

jab dekhun tujhko lagata hai aise
tu mere dil ka koi tukada hai jaise
tu mere dil ka koi tukada hai jaise
bate hai begani, nazare hai anjani
chehara magar anjana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi
maine tujhe pahchana nahi

bas khatam hoti hai ye kahani
main de chala hun tujhe apni nishani
main de chala hun tujhe apni nishani
dil ko na tadpana, mujhko bhul jana
lekin mujhe yaad aana nahi
tune mujhe pahchana nahi
apna hun main begana nahi
tune mujhe pahchana nahi
ye sach hai afsana nahi
tune mujhe pahchana nahi
tune mujhe pahchana nahi

You are mine, yet a stranger to me,
Though I've failed to truly know thee.
You are mine, yet a stranger to me,
Though I've failed to truly know thee.
This truth, no mere tale to be,
Though I've failed to truly know thee.

Eyes may wander, but the heart knows,
Blood recognizes the blood that flows.
Blood recognizes the blood that flows.
Let the veil now be withdrawn,
Perhaps remembrance will be born.
Pause, my love, do not depart,
Though I've failed to know your heart.
Though I've failed to know your heart.

When I gaze upon your face, it seems,
You're a fragment of my heart's own dreams.
You're a fragment of my heart's own dreams.
Words may be foreign, sights unknown,
Yet your face, I've always known.
Though I've failed to know your soul,
Though I've failed to know your whole.

Now, the tale begins to cease,
My mark, I leave for your release.
My mark, I leave for your release.
Do not let your heart now grieve,
Forget me, and my memory leave.
But do not, ever, think of me,
You've failed to recognize me.
I am yours, no stranger to see,
You've failed to recognize me.
This truth, no mere tale to be,
You've failed to recognize me.
You've failed to recognize me.
