dil kyu dhadkata hai kyu pyar hota hai
dil kyu dhadkata hai kyu pyar hota hai
sine me dard ye kyu baar baar hota hai
dil kyu dhadkata hai kyu pyar hota hai
sine me dard ye kyu baar baar hota hai

dil me agar apne hoti na ye dhadkan
to jindagi ko ham pehchante kaise
milte to ham dono par ajnabi rehte
ye pyar ki baate ham jante kaise
har sans ye kehti tu paas mere rehti
phir bhi mujhe tera intjhar hota hai
dil kyu dhadkata hai kyu pyar hota hai
sine me dard ye kyu baar baar hota hai

ab to nahi milti apni khabaar mujhko
tere khyalo me ham is kadar khoye
padhkar kitabo ko raate gujare ham
jab se mohabbat ki ji bhar nahi soye
is umar me sabka ye hal hota hai
kyu pyar hota hai kyu pyar hota hai
dil kyu dhadkata hai kyu pyar hota hai
sine me dard ye kyu baar baar hota hai

Why does the heart beat, why does love arise?
Why does the heart beat, why does love arise?
Why does this ache within me, again and again, rise?
Why does the heart beat, why does love arise?
Why does this ache within me, again and again, rise?

If the heart held no beat, no pulse of life,
How would we both recognize existence’s grace?
We might have met, yet strangers we’d remain,
How would we know the language of love’s embrace?
Each breath whispers, “You’re near, you’re here with me,”
And still, for you, my soul finds endless space.
Why does the heart beat, why does love arise?
Why does this ache within me, again and again, rise?

Lost to myself, I find no trace of me,
In your thoughts, my spirit wanders free.
Through books I’ve read, the nights have flown,
Since love's first touch, in sleep, I cannot be.
This is the plight of all, at this time of year,
Why does love arise, why does love arise?
Why does the heart beat, why does love arise?
Why does this ache within me, again and again, rise?
