Song Lyrics
| Kishore Kumar | Kishore Kumar | 
| pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho jeevan meethi pyaas ye kehti ho pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho  | You are close to my heart every single moment  You are close to my heart every single moment You call this life a sweet thirst You are close to my heart every single moment  | 
| har shaam aankhon par teraa aanchal lehraye har raat yaadon ki baaraat le aaye main saans letaa hoon, teri khushboo aati hai ek mehka mehka saa paighaam laati hai mere dil ki dhadkan bhi, tere geet gaati hai pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho  | Every evening, the end of your saari seems to flutter over my eyes. And every night brings a procession of memories. When I breathe, I smell your fragrance. Each sweet aroma bringing a sweet message. Even my heartbeats are singing your songs… You are close to my heart every single moment  | 
| kal tujhko dekhaa tha, maine apne aangan mein jaise keh rahi thi tum, mujhe baandh lo bandhan mein ye kaisa rishta hai, ye kaise sapne hain, begaane ho kar bhi kyun lagte apne hain main soch mein rehta hoon, dar darke kehta hoon pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho  | Yesterday, I saw you in my courtyard. It was as if you were saying, Come and take my hand in marriage What kind of a relationship is this, what kind of dreams are these? Despite being a stranger, why do I feel so close to you? I remain lost in my thoughts and I say this fearfully … You are to close my heart every single moment  | 
| tum sochogi kyon itna main tumse pyaar karoon tum samjhogi deewana, main bhi ikraar karoon deewanon ki yeh baatein, deewane jaante hai jalne mein kya maza hai, parwane jaante hai tum yoon hi jalate rehna, aa aakar khwaabon mein  | You might be wondering why I love you so much, You’d think that I’m crazy, and I agree to that. The things about crazy people are only understood by those crazy like them, Only the moths can understand the pleasure of burning in the flame Similarly, you keep me burning by continually coming into my dreams  | 
| pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho jeevan meethi pyaas ye kehti ho pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho  | You are close to my heart every single moment You call this life a sweet thirst You are close to my heart every single moment  |
