Musafir Lyrics Meaning in English — Arijit Anand
Rah Ke Kinare Pe Ped Ki Chhanv Mein, Baith Ja Musafir Kabhi
Sit beneath the tree’s shade by the roadside; rest for a moment, O’ Traveller.
Itna Kyun Hai Bhagta Kya Tu Waqt Se Bada
What is causing you to hurry? Are you now superior to time?
Ban Gaya Hai Qafir Abhi
Have you turned into an unbeliever?
Rah Ke Kinare Pe Ped Ki Chhanv Mein, Baith Ja Musafir Kabhi
Sit in the shade of the wayside tree and rest for a while, O’ Traveller.
Itna Kyun Hai Bhagta Kya Tu Waqt Se Bada
What is motivating you to hurry? Are you now better than time itself?
Ban Gaya Hai Qafir Abhi
Have you ceased to believe?
Mil Jayega Ek Din Tujhe Tera Woh Aasman
One day, you will discover your sky.
Jab Gum Hui Hai Teri Hasi Toh Safar Ka Kya Fayda
When your laughter is muted, why undertake the journey then?
Fikron Mein Hai Kya Rakha Koshishein Tu Kar Sada
Why bother with troubling thoughts? Try your best.
Itna Hi Hai Kafi Abhi
That is sufficient for now.
Rah Ke Kinare Pe Ped Ki Chhanv Mein, Baith Ja Musafir Kabhi
Sit beneath the tree’s shade by the roadside and take a break, O’ Traveler.
Mana Ke Garmi Ki Dopahar Hai Jalati Tujhe
Admittedly, the midday heat is scorching you.
Sunle Kabhi Teri Boodhi Si Ma Ghar Bulati Tujhe
Hear your elderly mother’s call to come home.
Mana Ke Garmi Ki Dopahar Hai Jalati Tujhe
Admittedly, the midday heat is scorching you.
Sunle Kabhi Teri Boodhi Si Ma Ghar Bulati Tujhe
Hear your elderly mother’s call to go home.
Par Tu Hai Waqt Sa Tu Na Kabhi Hai Ruka
But you are akin to time; you never cease.
Teri Kashish Kheench Layegi Woh Tu Jo Hai Chaht
Your allure will lead you to everything you desire.
Char Pal Ki Zindagi Usmein Ek Pal Khushi Uski Kar Hifazat Abhi
A moment of joy amidst a fleeting life; preserve it.
Rah Ke Kinare Pe Ped Ki Chhanv Mein Baith Ja Musafir Kabhi
Sit beneath the tree’s shade, by the roadside, and rest for a moment, O’ traveller.
Rah Ke Kinare Pe Ped Ki Chhanv Mein, Baith Ja Musafir Kabhi
Sit beneath the tree’s shade by the roadside; rest for a moment, O’ Traveller.
Itna Kyun Hai Bhagta Kya Tu Waqt Se Bada
What is causing you to hurry? Are you now superior to time?
Ban Gaya Hai Qafir Abhi
Have you turned into an unbeliever?
