KAISE REH PAATA HUN MEIN... TUM BIN
HOW AM I ABLE TO LIVE... WITHOUT YOU

Un  anhchhuyee   deewaron se
Jin par tera
Naam likhaa thaa..
Puchhon unse
Kaise reh paata hoon
Main
Tum bin..

Those untouched walls
On which
I had scribbled
Your name
Ask them
How am I
Able to live
Without you....


Us khidhkee se
Puchhon tum
Jis par
Meri nazron ne
'intezaar' likhaa thaa
puchhon us khidhkee se
 Kaise reh paata hoon
Main
Tum bin..

The windows
I had my sight fixed on (waiting for you)
Inscribing 'wait'
Ask them
How am I
Able to live
Without you....


Un haathon se
Jinko chhoo kar
Mere dil ne
Mere hothon par
Ek geet likhaa thaa
Puchhon un haathon se
Kaise reh paata hoon
Main
Tum bin....

Those hands
That I held
And my heart composed
A poem on my lips
Ask them
How am I
Able to live
Without you....


Us dhadkan se
Jisne mere seene par lag kar
Mere dil mein
'pyaar' bhara thaa
puchhon apnee
 us dhadhkan se
Kaise reh paata hoon
Main
Tum bin...

That heartbeat
Which clung to my chest
Filled my heart
With 'love'
Ask that heartbeat of yours
How am I
Able to live
Without you....


Kya puchhogee
Kya batlaaogee
Main batlaata hoon
Nahin reh paata hoon
Kaise bhee
Main
Tum bin....

What all will you ask
What all will you say
I tell you
I am not able to live
Any which way
Without you....
