Alfaaz — English translation

Hamza Malik · urdu → English

What "Alfaaz" means

A tender love song about being so smitten that ordinary words fall short. The singer wonders how a past love is doing, asks that they not be forgotten, and says everything they own belongs to that person. The mood is devoted and reverent, full of admiration, with images of gazing all night, picking roses and kissing the ground the loved one walked on. It feels like an old-school, poetic declaration of total commitment, where it is either this person or nobody.

پتا نہیں چلا، ہم بدل گئے
We didn't even notice how we changed
کریں اب کیا ہم عشق میں پھسل گئے
What can we do now, we've fallen head over heels in love
تیرے دیدار سے پہلے
Before catching a glimpse of you
ہم جیسے تو دل لگانے سے ڈرتے تھے
People like us were always terrified of giving our hearts away
