DHOONDUN TUMHE MEIN
I LOOK FOR YOU

Dhundoon tumhe rahon mein
Jhuke patton ke chaon mein
Hawa ke har harkat mein
Meri ore uthe nigahon mein

Hui hairaan, phir pareshaan
Bhule kaise jise bulaya jaan
Kaha tha meri dil ki dharkan se
Mila tumhe jeevan daan

Ab dhundoon tumhe rahon mein
Bandh palkon ke chaon mein
Suuni bistar ke karvat mein
Har naye premi ke bahon mein
 

I look for you in the streets
Under the shade of drooping leaves
In the movement of air
In every glance that looks at me

First amazed and then disturbed
I wonder how you forgot me
After telling me that my every heart beat
Fills you with new life

Now I look for you on the streets
In the shadows of my closed eyelids
In the tossing and turning of my empty bed
In the arms of every new lover I have
