[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Pai gayi shamaan ni
Twilight is settling in.
Hunn yaad teri ne aa jana
And here come the ghosts of your memory.
Tu padh liya jana ni
One day you'll finally understand.
Tere bina assan maar jana
That life without you is just a slow death.
[Verse 1]
[Verse 1]
Oh dil tode ne kinne
Tell me, how many hearts have you shattered?
Sadda vi todke ke jaa
Go ahead, finish mine off and keep it moving.
Chaal isse bahane ni
At least this way, under that guise,
Kar lena poora chaah
I can satisfy my craving for your presence.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus]
Haaye dard vichhode ne
The agony of this distance...
Mainu andron hi khaa jana
It’s eating me alive from the inside out.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Pai gayi shamaan ni
The sun is dipping low.
Hunn yaad teri ne aa jana
And your shadow is creeping back into my mind.
Tu padh liya jana ni
You’ll eventually realize the truth.
Tere bina assan maar jana
That I can’t survive in a world without you.
[Verse 2]
[Verse 2]
Oh jiwein ambran de wich taare ni
Just like all the stars scattered across the night sky,
Sare tere jholi taare ne
They’ve all found their home in your lap.
Main taan chann nu thalle la dena
I’d pluck the moon right out of the heavens for you.
Haaye aashiq tere saare ne
God, every soul is just another admirer of yours.
Oh jiwein ambran de wich taare ni
Like stars in the vast cosmic expanse,
Sare tere jholi taare ne
They all gather at your feet.
Main taan chann nu thalle la dena
I’d make the impossible happen just to win your smile.
Haaye aashiq tere saare ne
Everyone is just falling for you.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus]
Tu ik vaari hass taan de
Give me just one honest smile,
Mereya dukhan ne mukk jana
And my world of pain would vanish into thin air.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Pai gayi shamaan ni
The darkness is rolling in.
Hunn yaad teri ne aa jana
And your memory returns like a recurring dream.
Tu padh liya jana ni
One day you'll read between the lines.
Tere bina asssan maar jana
And realize I’m fading without you.
[Verse 3]
[Verse 3]
Oh kise changgi qismat waale di
I wonder, what lucky soul’s destiny
Qismat de wich tu howengi
is graced by your presence?
Oh yaad vi kesi yaad hou
And what kind of haunting memory will that be,
Jis yaad de wich tu khowengi
the one where you finally lose yourself?
Oh kise changgi qismat waale di
Whoever you end up with is truly blessed.
Qismat de wich tu howengi
You’ll be the centerpiece of their life.
Oh yaad vi kesi yaad hou
What a beautiful, painful memory it’ll be,
Jis yaad de wich tu khowengi
the moment you decide to disappear into their soul.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus]
Tu jaadon jaadon sharmaye
Every time you turn bashful and shy,
Kinniya mukk diyan ne jana
everything else in my world just stops existing.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Pai gayi shamaan ni
Nightfall is here.
Hunn yaad teri ne aa jana
And your thoughts are taking over again.
Tu padh liya jana ni
The realization will hit you eventually.
Tere bina asssan maar jana
That you are the only oxygen I have left.
