Sins

This song was written in context of what one might feel moments before dying. The regrets, the good moments, the what ifs and what could’ve beens. All your life flashing in front of your eyes, which is then concluded by embracing the inevitable death.

    Lyrics
    Sins

    When the final gong shall ring
    Life shall cease to exist
    And so shall all the sorrows

    My fears
    Bite dust
    In a fire that burns within

    All this skin
    Turn to rust
    The water starts seeping in

    All that’s bright outside
    Is dead inside

    When all that hurts falls through
    The walls i built are blue
    And dead...

    And my eyes, pools of rain
    Are looking, to numb the pain

    Well i thought
    I must
    Save you from all the sins

    But dismay
    Has me crushed
    When i’m trying to save myself

    All that feels like home
    Makes me feel alone

    When the light ignites my chest
    I’d know it’s all worth it
    In the end...

    And my eyes, pools of rain
    Are looking, to numb the pain

    نہ پائ دنیا اور نہ پایا خدا
    بس خود سے الجھتا رہا
    Na Paayi Dunya Aur Na Paaya Khuda
    Bas Khud Se Ulajhta Raha
    Never reclaimed the world or discovered divinity
    All I am is getting enmeshed within me

    چند لمھوں کی خوشیوں کی آس میں
    سدیوں سے غم سہتا رہا
    Chand Lamhon Ki Khushiyon Ki Aas Mein
    Sadiyon Se Gham Sehta Raha
    For the yearning of meagre desires
    I endured aeons of ache

    جانے کیوں میری قسمت تھی مجھسے خفا
    تھا میں تو نا آشنا
    Jaane Kyun Meri Qismat Thi Mujhse Khafa
    Tha Mein Tou Na-Aashna
    Why was my fate bitter to me?
    For I was oblivious to it

    میرے رخ پے ہسی تھی اور دل میں گلہ
    مقدر سے ہارا ہوا
    Mere Rukh Pe Hassi Thi Aur Dil Mein Gila
    Muqaddar Se Haara Hua
    I masked my face with a smile but my heart knew of only torment;
    Defeated by destiny

    میری خاموشی میں تھی دفن میرے
    گناہوں کی داستاں
    Meri Khamoshi Mein Thi Dafan Mere
    Gunaahon Ki Dastaan
    My stillness buried the tales of my sins

    نکلی پھر اس دل سے جو دعا مگر
    مجھکو رب واقف کیا
    Nikli Phir Iss Dilse Jo Dua Magar
    Mujhko Rab Se Waaqif Kiya
    But when the orison flowed from my heart
    I recognized the essence of the creator

    میرے خدا ۔۔۔ مجھکو تو دے دے پناہ
    Mere Khuda... Mujhko Tu Dede Panaah
    My lord, give me a safe haven

    سن لے تو میری سدا ۔۔۔ بس اتنی سی التجا
    Sun Le Tu Meri Sadaa... Bas Itni Si Iltijaa
    Lend your ears to my prayers, it’s all I’m pleading for

    میرے گناہ ۔۔۔ کر دے تو انکو فنا
    Mere Gunaah... Karde Tu Inn Ko Fanaah
    My sins... bring them to their demise
