kabhi
jab boodhe ho jayenge, hum dono
jab main tumhari aankhon ke kinaron mein
ginoonga wo har lamha
jab tum hansi thi khul ke
aur chehre ki har jhurri mein
jioonga har ghadi hamare pyaar ki
aisa karte karte jab
kheench loonga tumhein bahon mein apni
tumhi batao pyaar
kaisi woh umr hogi
jab boodhe ho jayenge, hum dono
jab main tumhari aankhon ke kinaron mein
ginoonga wo har lamha
jab tum hansi thi khul ke
aur chehre ki har jhurri mein
jioonga har ghadi hamare pyaar ki
aisa karte karte jab
kheench loonga tumhein bahon mein apni
tumhi batao pyaar
kaisi woh umr hogi
someday
when we both are old
when i’ll count in the laugh lines
every moment
you laughed with abandon
and in every wrinkle of your face
will live each moment of our love
when doing this
i’ll pull you into my arms
do tell me love
what an age it will be
