Kal, main mila us se
Us se milna
Kanwal jaisa
Ansuon ke talab mein
Khilti
Khushi jaisa
Us se milna
Chand jaisa
Mann ke andheron mein
Ugti
Paak roshni jaisa
Us se milna
Azal jaisa
Zindagi ki kitaab mein
Aate
Akhiri harf jaisa
Yesterday, I met her
To meet her
Like lotus
Blossoming
Like a smile
In a pond of tears
To meet her
Like moon
Rising
Like the light of faith
In the darkness of heart
To meet her
Like death
Coming
Like the last word
In the book of life
