Lyrics:

Kitne vaade, kitni baatein baaki hain
Kitne din aur, kitni raatein baaki hain
In parchhaiyo se badal bhi jau toh
Mai befikar hu, madhosh ho bhi jau toh

Tum jab paas aati ho
Palko se muskurati ho
Havaaye bhi gungunati hai
Tum jab paas aati ho

Uljhi nazare kaise anjaan sheheron me
Saari kasme behti yaado ki lehro me
Iss geherai se bekhabar ho jau toh
Mai befikar hu, madhosh ho bhi jau toh

Tum jab paas aati ho
Palko se muskurati ho
Havaaye bhi gungunati hai
Tum jab paas aati ho

Kho jaane ki zidd na karo
Khwaaish hai ye dil ki
Raaho ko nazar mei rakho

Mai bhi toh laut aunga
Havaao sa gungunaunga

Kitne vaade, kitni baatein baaki hain
Kitne din aur kitni raatein baaki hain

Tum jab paas aati ho
Palko se muskurati ho
Havaaye bhi gungunati hai
Tum jab paas aati ho

Tum jab paas aati ho
Tum jab paas aati ho
Tum jab paas aati ho
Tum jab paas aati ho

About Prateek Kuhad:

With the release of his much-awaited debut album, In Tokens & Charms, in January 2015, Delhi-based singer-songwriter Prateek Kuhad firmly established himself as one of the frontrunners in the Indian independent music scene.

Prateek, with his unique blend of minimal, folk arrangements and pop rock melodies, effortlessly captures life’s complexities in his songs. Having toured around India he has also performed in New York, Austin, Toronto, Brisbane, and Singapore.

Live, Prateek perfectly recreates the warmth and vulnerability that is a signature on his recordings, using his folk-pop sensibilities to forge an infrangible connection with the audience.

A release by Artist Originals:

[srujanikasahu]

I appreciate the audience. They didnt interrupt him in between, rather just peacefully, silently heard him.

[vivekchavanmusic]

He really needs to be heard more! I wish this was the kind of music Bollywood was famous for. It's just pure authentic and raw beauty. Loads of love Prateek
ps - why can't things like these go viral and be on the trending page?

[cumulonimbus]

You know that a singer is a real deal if he/she sounds exactly the same as in live & in recording.

[HamzaKhanCollective]

I've seen alot of people from India appreciating Coke Studio & to be honest, I fail to find someone like him in Pakistan. Prateek Kuhad, you made me cry. Whoever makes me cry engrave his/her presence in my heart forever. Thank You for doing it

[neerajbhatt]

Either you are the biggest fan of him, or you haven't listened him yet...

[adityamehta]

Should be illegal for a person to have so much talent.

[abhaydh]

I might not tell her. But i miss her. I cry as I listen to this song.
Thanks my man Prateek.

[HustlerEverrr]

only indian singer i would pay to watch live <3

Lyrics explained for Global Viewers

कितने हैं वादें, कितनी बातें, बाकी हैं
I don’t know but many promises and many things are left to be said

कितने हैं दिन और कितनी रातें, बाकी हैं
I don’t know but many days and nights are yet to come

इन परछाईयों से बदल भी जाऊं तो
If I ever changed by the shadow this time is casting on me

मैं बेफ़िकर हूँ, मदहोश हो भी जाऊं तो
Even if I'm Careless and not thinking about anything

तुम जब पास आती हो
Whenever you come closer to me

पलकों से मुस्कुराती हो
Your eyelids smiles at me

हवाएं भी गुनगुनाती हैं
Even this air starts singing

तुम जब पास आती हो
Whenever you come closer to me

उलझी नज़रें, कैसे अंजान शहरों में?
Confused sights in this strange city

सारी ही कसमें, पलती यादों के दायरों में
Even every promise is under care of memories

उस गहराई से बेख़बर हो जाऊं तो
Even if I deny all that depth that was between us

मैं बेफ़िकर हूँ, मदहोश हो भी जाऊं तो
Even if I'm careless and not thinking about it all.

तुम जब पास आती हो
Whenever you come closer to me

पलकों से मुस्कुराती हो
Your eyelids smiles at me

हवाएं भी गुनगुनाती हैं
Even this air starts singing

तुम जब पास आती हो
Whenever you come closer to me

खो जाने की ज़िद ना करो
Please don't say that I am lost

ख़्वाहिश है ये दिल की
This is what my heart urges to you

राहों को नज़र में रखो
Please keep your eyes on the road it is the same way through which I have gone

मैं भी तो लौट आऊंगा
And I will also return

हवाओं सा गुनगुनाऊंगा
And sing like these winds were singing

कितने हैं वादें, कितनी बातें, बाकी हैं
I don't know how many promises and how many words are unspoken

कितने हैं दिन और कितनी रातें, बाकी हैं
I don't know how many days and night are yet to be gone

तुम जब पास आती हो
Whenever you come closer to me
पलकों से मुस्कुराती हो
Your eyelids smiles at me
हवाएं भी गुनगुनाती हैं
Even this air starts singing
तुम जब पास आती हो
Whenever you come closer to me

This song is defining a relation between two lover who are miles apart. There is some distance between them but they haven't left the hope. They will come back to each other as the signs they are getting are strong enough for their existence in this relation.

[HolisticFitnesswithTronzy]

Gosh!!! I have been listening to his songs non stop for the past week. He is incredibly talented. God bless u Prateek
Your music makes people happy, heals them. It’s a gift

[yashas]

The part where he sings "Kho jaane ki zidd na karo" is just <3

[jayguptax]

There is something about this live version, it has a different feel to it. I keep coming back to it.

[Hey_Shrads]

"Kitne waadein kitni baatein baaki hai" the first line in his voice alone has the power to break my heart!♥️

[ravivar.]

This should get an extended version like of 1 hr extended

[NaimaHaque]

I already can't put a number on how many times I'm going to listen to this!

[rakshuu]

Very rare India artist has this kind of effect on me 🔥

[lemenace]

Good to know that there are people out there who recognise and appreciate good music. Prateek Kuhad is a gem.
