duniya parai log yaha begane
dil par jo biti wo dil hi jane
apne desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane
duniya parayi log yaha begane
dil par jo bite wo dil hi jane

kaisa gham hai kya majburi hai
kaisa gham hai kya majburi hai
paas hai jo unse bhi duri hai
dil yu tadape jaise
koi gunga bolna chahe
lekin sab hai anjane
apne desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane
duniya parayi log yaha begane
dil par jo bite wo dil hi jane

koi bata de hum kyu jinda hai
koi bata de hum kyu jinda hai
hum kyu khud se bhi sharminda hai
apni hi aankho se gire hai
banke hum ek aansu
mane koi ya nahi mane
apne hi desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane
duniya parai log yaha begane
dil par jo bite wo dil hi jane
apne hi desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane

koi to jine ka bahana ho
koi to jine ka bahana ho
koi wada ho jo nibhana ho
koi safar koi to rasta
koi to manzil ho
sunle aye dil diwane
apne desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane
duniya parai log yaha begane
dil par jo bite wo dil hi jane

socha hai ab dur chale jaye
socha hai ab dur chale jaye
apne sapno ki duniya paye
us duniya me pyar ke phul
aur khushiyo ke moti hai
jo na diye is duniya ne
apne hi desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane
duniya parai log yaha begane
dil par jo bite wo dil hi jane
apne hi desh me hum hai pardesi
koi na pahchane

A world of strangers, faces unknown,
The heart's burden, the heart alone has shown.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.
A world of strangers, faces unknown,
The heart's burden, the heart alone has shown.

What sorrow aches, what unseen chains bind?
What sorrow aches, what unseen chains bind?
Distance from those who are close, you'll find.
The heart yearns, as if in its plight,
A mute longing, for words to take flight,
But all remain strangers in time.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.
A world of strangers, faces unknown,
The heart's burden, the heart alone has shown.

Someone, tell me, why do we still breathe?
Someone, tell me, why do we still breathe?
Why from ourselves, do we take leave?
From our own eyes, we descend and fall,
Becoming a tear, answering the call.
Believe it or not, fate has shown.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.
A world of strangers, faces unknown,
The heart's burden, the heart alone has shown.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.

A reason to live, let it appear,
A reason to live, let it appear,
A promise to keep, banish all fear.
A journey, a path, a guiding star,
A destination, no matter how far,
Hear, oh heart, your cries I hear.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.
A world of strangers, faces unknown,
The heart's burden, the heart alone has shown.

To wander afar, now I must depart,
To wander afar, now I must depart,
To find my dreams, a brand new start.
In that world, love's blossoms bloom,
And joys like pearls dispel the gloom,
Which this world, has failed to impart.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.
A world of strangers, faces unknown,
The heart's burden, the heart alone has shown.
In our own land, we are exiles adrift,
Unrecognized, a forgotten gift.
