pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho
kyun mere dil mein tum
khwaabo mein aakar mere
khwaabo mein aakar mere
mujhese milate ho tum
pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho

pardesi chalo ban gaye
niramohi na bano
ek baar dil ki dhadkane
tum yaar khud suno
tum yaar khud suno
gunnje wahi sadaaye to
ghunje wahi sadaaye to
mere paas aana tum
pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho

sheeshe ke mahal shayad
tumhe ab bha hi gaye hain
sone ke varkh aankhon par
ab chha hi gaye hain
ab chha hi gaye hain
ghar maati ka gar yaad aaye tumhein
ghar maati ka gar yaad aaye tumhein
to laut aana tum
pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho

ab ke baarish mein yahan
deeware hi beh jaayegi
ghar na paaoge wahan
bas neev hi reh jaayegi
bas neev hi reh jaayegi
ghar zara bhi khayaal hamara hain
ghar zara bhi khayaal hamara hain
to mudake aana tum
pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho

pardeshi ban ke sajan tum
pardesh kyon gaye
aankho me karke wade
tum bhul kyon gaye
tum bhul kyon gaye
yadein kare wivash tumhe to
yadein kare wivash tumhe to
fir laut aana tum
pardesi banke rehte ho
kyon mere dil me tum
khawabo me aakar mere
khawabo me aakar mere
pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho
pardesi banke rehte ho

A stranger you dwell,
A stranger you stay,
Why in my heart,
Do you visit my dreams,
Do you visit my dreams,
And meet me this way?
A stranger you dwell,
A stranger you stay.

A stranger you've become,
But forsake not your love,
Listen once to the heartbeats,
Hear their pulse, my love,
Hear their pulse, my love,
If echoes resound,
If echoes resound,
Then come back to me.
A stranger you dwell,
A stranger you stay.

In glass palaces, perhaps,
You now find delight,
With golden veils on your eyes,
They now hold you tight,
They now hold you tight,
If the earthen home calls,
If the earthen home calls,
Then return to my sight.
A stranger you dwell,
A stranger you stay.

In the coming rain here,
The walls will all flow,
You'll find no home there,
Only foundations will show,
Only foundations will show,
If you still care for me,
If you still care for me,
Then turn back, and go.
A stranger you dwell,
A stranger you stay.

A stranger you've become, my love,
Why did you depart?
With promises in your eyes,
Why did you break my heart?
Why did you break my heart?
If memories compel,
If memories compel,
Then return, start.
A stranger you dwell,
Why in my heart,
Do you visit my dreams,
Do you visit my dreams,
A stranger you stay,
A stranger you stay,
A stranger you stay.
