Nomadic Desolation

I’m an idealist. I don’t know where I’m going, but I’m on the way.

Nomadic Desolation

main ek fard hoon (I am an individual)
ya ek ehsaas hoon (Or am I a feeling)
mein ek jism hoon (I am a body)
ya rooh ki pyaas hoon (Or the thirst of the soul)

ke sach ki talaash hai (In search of the truth)
duur aakaash hai (The sky is far)
manzil paas nahi (The destination is not near)
kiya tu mere paas hai (Are you near me)

kabhi mein aml hoon (Sometimes I am a worker)
kabhi beaml hoon (Sometimes I am a nobody)
gar tujh mein nahi (If I am not in you,)
to phir bemehl hoon (then I am unapt)

A very mystic song — Ehsaas (listen) by Atif Aslam, from his album Doorie.
