ek khwaab ka khayaal hai

kabhi jo khwaab tha
woh pa liya hai
magar jo kho gayi
woh cheez kya thi
that cherished dream
you have realized
but, what is that
you have lost, along the way?

ab judaayi ke safar ko
mere aasaan karo
tum mujhe khwaab mein aa kar
na pareshaan karo
make this journey of separation
of mine a little easier
please do not torment me
by appearing in my dreams

mujh mein kya mere siva
aur bhi rehta hai koi
main to so jaati huun
phir khwaab kise dikhte hain
is there someone else
that lives in me besides myself?
i go sleep, but then
who sees the dreams
dream

khwaab-e-shireen mein woh aur
dil mera hai maail-e-shauq
dil dhaDaktaa hai ki
bedaar karuun ya na karuun
she is dreaming sweetly, and
my heart bends towards desire
my heart beats, wondering
whether to wake her up or not
