1/6: pal

har ek pal ko DhoonDta

har ek pal chala gaya

har ek pal guzar gaya

banaake dil pe ik nishaan

each moment passed by

while in search of a past moment

each moment passed by

leaving a mark on the heart

2/6: pal

vo ek aks ki pal bhar

nazar mein Thehra tha

tamaam umr ka ab

silsila hai mere liye

that one reflection flashed

in my sight for just a moment

now for my entire life

it is a saga for me

3/6: pal

yahaan har shakhs har pal

hadsa hone se darta hai

khilona hai jo miTTi ka

fana hone se darta hai

everyone here is always

fearful of a calamity happenin

all of them toys...always

fearful of becoming dirt

4/6: pal

teri adaaon ki saadgi mein

kisi ko mehsoos bhi na hoga

abhi qayaamat ka ik karishma

haya ke daaman mein pal rahaa hai

in the simplicity of your manners

no one can even sense

the miracle of an apocalypse being

nurtured in the lap of your modesty

Theme:Beauty, Charm & Union (84)

5/6: pal

ik pal ka qurb

ek baras ka phir intezaar

aayi hai january

to december chala gaya

a moment of closeness

and then a year of waiting again

january has come

but december has gone

6/6: pal

subh ke takht-nasheen

shaam ke mujrim tahre

hum ne pal bhar mein

naseebon ko badalte dekha

those seated on the throne in the morn

were declared criminals by dusk

we have in seconds

seen fortunes change wildly
