tumko dekh ke yoon lagta hai
looking at you, I feel,
koi bichhda khwab aaya hai..
as if some dream, separated from me, has come back..
barson lambi raat se guzre,
as if we've passed through a years long night,
subaha ka jhonka laut aaya hai
and now the morning gust has arrived back..
bahot der jaagi,
I kept awake for very long,
bahot door aayi,
I came too far away..
khwab ne chhodi na meri kalai..
but this dream didn't let me go (lit: didn't leave my wrist)
kab se meri saans ruki thi
since so long was my breath stuck,
mujhe saans aayi..
I breathed again..
saans mein teri saans mili to,
when your breath mixed with my breath,
mujhe saans aayi,
I was able to breathe again..
mujhe saans aayi..
I was able to breathe again..
