Tanhaa dil ye tujh bin tadpe
Aankh gham se royee
Tu kya khoyaa bichhde saathi
Duniya jaise khoyee
Bheege naina ye mere
Dekhein ab kya bin tere
The lonely heart agonizes without you,
the eyes cried with sadness..
As you got lost, O lost companion,
It seemed the world was lost..
What do my wet eyes see without you..
Yaadon mein din jaage rehte
Raat bhi naa soyee
Saansein bhi chalti tham tham ke
Ho judaa jab koi
Days keep awake in the memories,
nights didn't sleep, too..
Even the breaths stop and begin,
When someone goes away..
Tu kya chhootaa, khwaab roothaa
Tootee tukdon mein ye jaan
O deewaane tu kyaa jaane
Dil hai kyun ye pareshaan
When you were lost, my dream got upset
My life was broken into pieces..
O mad one, you don't know
why this heart is disturbed..
Sochaa naa thaa ye bhi hogaa
Ghum hi jaayenge armaan
Kya khabar thi ye khushee bhee
Pal do pal ki hai mehmaan
I hadn't thought this too would happen,
that the dreams would be lost..
Who knew that the happiness too
was just for a small time..
[do pal is literally two moments, but means idiomatically 'a very small period of time'.]
Bheege naina ye mere
Dekhein ab kya bin tere
Kaise bhoolein teri baatein
Kaise keh dein alvidaa
Har jagah hai aks teraa
Aisa tujh se hai rishtaa
How do I forget your stories,
How do I say goodbye,
Everywhere there is your image,
That's how my relation with you is..
Tu kaheen ho har kadam pe
Hamsafar tu hai yaara
Aaj bhi ye lag raha hai
Tu hai saaya hamaaraa
You should be there somewhere at every step,
You're the companion, O beloved..
Even today I feel so,
you are my shadow..
Bheege naina ye mere
Dekhein ab kya bin tere
