PARAWISE TRANSLATION



tum ko dekhaa to ye Kayaal aayaa
zi.ndagii dhuup tum ghanaa saayaa

Seeing you I began to hum,
You are like shade in burning sun 

aaj phir dilane ek tamannaa kii \- (2)
aaj phir dilako hamane samajhaayaa

A wish again in heart did rise,
Again I told it to be wise. 

tum chale jaaoge to soche.nge \- (2)
hamane kyaa khoyaa, hamane kyaa paayaa

After you are gone, will I muse,
What I gained, what did I lose. 

ham jise gunagunaa nahii.n sakate \- (2)
vaqt ne aisaa giit kyuu.N gaayaa

Why fate had to sing a song,
Which I cannot hum along?


ENGLISH

Seeing you I began to hum,
You are like shade in burning sun 


A wish again in heart did rise,
Again I told it to be wise. 


After you’re gone, will I muse,
What I gained, what did I lose. 


Why fate had to sing a song,
Which I cannot hum along?
