KARNEE HEIN KUTCHH BAATEIN...
LET US TALK ....

Jab tak
tumse
Kar loon na
Pooree baatein..tab tak
Na din hongein poore
Na hongee pooree raatein...

Until
I am able to complete
My conversation with
You
Neither the days would be complete
Nor the
Nights...

Batlaa do
Samjhaa do
 kaise hain.
Kitne hain.
Janmon ke naate...

Tell me
Explain to me.
How is it
That I am
Related to you
Through
 births and rebirths...

Yeh dooree.
Yeh majbooree
Chhitkee chaandnee se
 kyun
Chhan- chaan kar
Aatee hain
Jeevan mein kutchh
Andheree raatein...

this distance..(of separation)
and compulsions
why
the dark night
filters through
scattered moonlight

Ab to
Aa jaao
Karnee hain tumse
Kutchh baatein..
Taaki
Din bhee hon poore
Aur roshan ho jaaye raatein....
