You’re Running When I Want You To Stay Stay
You’re running when I want you to stay, stay
You’re Running When I Want You To Stay Stay
You’re running when I want you to stay, stay


Tu Hi Zikr Aur Tu Hi Uski Zubaan
You alone are the mention and you alone are its tongue
Tu Hi Makeen Hai Dil Ye Tera Makaan
You alone are the dweller; this heart is your home
Tu Andheron Mein Jaise Noore Nazar
In darkness you are a radiant light for the eyes
Tu Hi Husn Hai Husn Tujh Pe Ayaan
You yourself are beauty; beauty is manifest upon you


In Palko Ke Saaye Mein Bhar Lo
Let me dwell forever in the shade of these lashes
Hum Bhi Rehna Chahe Sada
I too long to stay for eternity
Ya Nigahon Ko Chupa Lo
Or else hide your gaze from me
Kar Na Baithe Koi Hum Hi Khata
Lest I commit some fault of my own


Meri Aankhon Mein Sabr
Patience rests within my eyes
Teri Aankhon Mein Nasha
Intoxication lives within yours
Aise Bhi Na Le Tu Imtiha Mere
Do not test me in such a way
Hum Hai Kar Baithe Tere Liye
I have already severed soul from body for you
Rooh Ko Tan Se Juda
Years have passed lost in thoughts of you
Barson Hain Beeti Khyaalon Mein Tere
Years have passed lost in thoughts of you


Tu Hi Zakhm Marham Tu Hai Raazdaan
You are the wound, the balm, and the keeper of secrets
Tu Hi Waham Aur Tu Hi Usme Gumaan
You are the illusion and within it the pride
Jab Tu Hi Na Ho Paaye Hasil Humko
When I cannot attain you, this whole world feels meaningless
Lagta Hai Bematlab Ye Saara Jahan
When I cannot attain you, this whole world feels meaningless


Baby You Can Walk Too Talk Too
Baby, you can walk, you can talk—I have no complaint
Mujhe Koi Bhi Takleef Nahi
Baby, you can walk, you can talk—I have no complaint
Meri Zindagi Mein Tum Ek Sharaab Ek
In my life you are a single wine; nothing else is dear
Baki Zindagi Mein Kuch Bhi Azeez Nahi
In my life you are a single wine; nothing else is dear
Aur Ek Aap Hain
And then there is you
Sharab Gire Damanon Pe Daagh Hai
Wine leaves stains on hems; she asks for flowers while I am the garden
Wo Phool Maangti Hai Aur Hum Baagh Hai
Wine leaves stains on hems; she asks for flowers while I am the garden
Phir Ittifaq Se Ho Tera Mera Saamna
If by chance we meet again and you won’t meet my eyes, know I hold your secrets
Tu Nazar Na Milaye Mere Paas Tere Raaz Hai
If by chance we meet again and you won’t meet my eyes, know I hold your secrets


Mein Kagazon Par Apne Gham Likhta Hu
I write my sorrows on paper until I appear smaller than I am
Likhta Hoon Itna Ke Main Kam Dikhta Hu
I write my sorrows on paper until I appear smaller than I am
Woh Elite Usse Poora Ek Mehal Chahiye
She’s elite; she wants an entire palace, Chanel inside a Gucci bag
Usse Gucci Ke Bag Mein Chanel Chahiye
She’s elite; she wants an entire palace, Chanel inside a Gucci bag
She’s Fancy
She’s fancy
Aur Mujhe Dekh Meri Zindagi Bechain Si
Look at me—my life is restless, still a sick boy, a bit romantic
Still I’m A Sick Boy Thoda Main Romancey
Look at me—my life is restless, still a sick boy, a bit romantic
Vision Bara Clear Bada Clear That You Can’t See
My vision is crystal clear—so clear you can’t see it


To Be Left Is To Be Seen Mera Jigar
To be left is to be seen, my heart; she never saw me, only the double figure
Dekha Hi Nahi Usne She Just Saw The Double Figure
To be left is to be seen, my heart; she never saw me, only the double figure
Main Kaam Karoon Itna Ab Accounts Getting Bigger
I work so hard my accounts keep growing; free time is just me and my liquor
Free Time Is Just Me And My Liquor
I work so hard my accounts keep growing; free time is just me and my liquor
Accountant Saath Mein Ounce Chik Ta Hun
With my accountant I tally ounces; every dawn I wake and write to you
Subah Uthte Main Roz Tujhe Likhta Hoon
With my accountant I tally ounces; every dawn I wake and write to you
Now I’m Gone Jidhar Waapsi Ka Irada Bhi Nahi
Now I’m gone with no intent of return; even my friends see me only now and then
Main Yaaron Ko Bhi Kabhi Kabhi Dikhta Hoon
Now I’m gone with no intent of return; even my friends see me only now and then


Baby I Just Need A Night
Baby, I just need a night, just want to hold you tight
I Just Wanna Hold You Tight
Baby, I just need a night, just want to hold you tight
I Just Wanna Feel Alive
I just want to feel alive—only for a night
Only For A Night
I just want to feel alive—only for a night
I Just Wanna Hold You Close
I just want to hold you close and let loose, cause I want to make it right—only for a night
And I’m Gonna Let Loose
I just want to hold you close and let loose, cause I want to make it right—only for a night
Cause I Wanna Make It Right
I just want to hold you close and let loose, cause I want to make it right—only for a night
Only For A Night
I just want to hold you close and let loose, cause I want to make it right—only for a night


Baby I Just Need A Night
Baby, I just need a night, just want to hold you tight
I Just Wanna Hold You Tight
Baby, I just need a night, just want to hold you tight
I Just Wanna Feel Alive
I just want to feel alive—only for a night
Only For A Night
I just want to feel alive—only for a night

Tu Hi Zakhm Marham Tu Hai Raazdaan
You are the wound, the balm, the confidant; you are the doubt and the pride within it
Tu Hi Waham Aur Tu Hi Usmein Gumaan
You are the wound, the balm, the confidant; you are the doubt and the pride within it
Jab Tu Hi Na Ho Paaye Haasil Humko
When I cannot attain you, this whole world seems meaningless
Lagta Hai Bematlab Yeh Saara Jahaan
When I cannot attain you, this whole world seems meaningless


Tu Hi Zikr Aur Tu Hi Uski Zubaan
You alone are the mention and you alone are its tongue; you alone are the dweller—this heart is your home
Tu Hi Makeen Hai Dil Ye Tera Makaan
You alone are the mention and you alone are its tongue; you alone are the dweller—this heart is your home
You’re Running When I Want You To Stay Stay

यू आर रनिंग व्हेन आई वांट यू टू स्टे स्टे
यू आर रनिंग व्हेन आई वांट यू टू स्टे स्टे

तु ही ज़िक्र और तु ही उसकी ज़ुबान
तु ही मक़ीन है दिल ये तेरा मकान
तु अंधेरों में जैसे नूरे नज़र
तु ही हुस्न है हुस्न तुझ पे आयान

इन पलक़ों के साए में भर लो
हम भी रहना चाहें सदा
या निगाहों को छुपा लो
कर न बैठे कोई हम ही खता

मेरी आँखों में सब्र
तेरी आँखों में नशा
ऐसे भी न ले तू इम्तिहा मेरे
हम है कर बैठे तेरे लिए
रूह को तन से जुदा
बरसों हैं बीती ख़्यालों में तेरे

तु ही ज़ख्म मरहम तु है राज़दान
तु ही वहम और तु ही उसमें गुमान
जब तु ही न हो पाए हासिल हमको
लगता है बेमतलब ये सारा जहाँ

बेबी यू कैन वॉक टू टॉक टू
मुझे कोई भी तकलीफ़ नहीं
मेरी ज़िंदगी में तुम एक शराब
बाकी ज़िंदगी में कुछ भी अज़ीज़ नहीं
और एक आप हैं
शराब गिरे दामनों पे दाग़ है
वो फूल मांगती है और हम बाग़ हैं
फिर इतिफ़ाक़ से हो तेरा मेरा सामना
तु नजर न मिलाए मेरे पास तेरे राज़ हैं

मैं कागज़ों पर अपने ग़म लिखता हूँ
लिखता हूँ इतना के मैं कम दिखता हूँ
वो एलीट उससे पूरा एक महल चाहिए
उससे गूची के बैग में चैनल चाहिए
शी’ज़ फैंसी
और मुझे देख मेरी ज़िंदगी बेचैन सी
स्टिल आई’म ए सिक्स बॉय थोड़ा मैं रोमांसी
विज़न बड़ा क्लियर बड़ा क्लियर दैट यू कैन’t सी

टू बी लेफ्ट इज़ टू बी सीन मेरा जिगर
देखा ही नहीं उसने शी जस्ट सॉ द डबल फिगर
मैं काम करूँ इतना अब अकाउंट्स गेटिंग बिगर
फ्री टाइम इज़ जस्ट मी एंड माई लिकर
अकाउंटेंट साथ में आउंस चिक्टा हूँ
सुबह उठते मैं रोज़ तुम्हे लिखता हूँ
नाउ आई’m गॉन जिधर वापसी का इरादा भी नहीं
मैं यारों को भी कभी कभी दिखता हूँ

बेबी आई जस्ट नीड अ नाइट
आई जस्ट वांना होल्ड यू टाइट
आई जस्ट वांना फील अलाइव
ओनली फॉर अ नाइट
आई जस्ट वांना होल्ड यू क्लोज़
और आई’m गॉना लेट लूस
कॉज़ आई वांना मेक इट राइट
ओनली फॉर अ नाइट

बेबी आई जस्ट नीड अ नाइट
आई जस्ट वांना होल्ड यू टाइट
आई जस्ट वांना फील अलाइव
ओनली फॉर अ नाइट

आई जस्ट वांना होल्ड यू क्लोज़
और आई’m गॉना लेट लूस
कॉज़ आई वांना मेक इट राइट
ओनली फॉर अ नाइट

तु ही ज़ख्म मरहम तु है राज़दान
तु ही वहम और तु ही उसमें गुमान
जब तु ही न हो पाए हासिल हमको
लगता है बेमतलब ये सारा जहाँ

तु ही ज़िक्र और तु ही उसकी ज़ुबान
तु ही मक़ीन है दिल ये तेरा मकान
