=============
Kept on staring upon seeing you
What could I say and what was even left to be said

Sounded almost like my name upon reaching my ears
Whatever something that on her lips remained trembling
She just walked in front of me and I
Towards the road in her anticipation kept staring

The falsehood kept increasing by leaps and bounds
And I on the other hand on truth kept relying
The intension of the tempest was not wholesome
And yet how this lamp went on burning
==================

Aap Ko Dekh Kar Dekhta Reh Gaya
Kya Kahun Aur Kehne Ko Kya Reh Gaya

Aate Aate Mera Naam Sa Rah Gaya
Us Ke Honthon Pe Kuch Kanpata Rah Gaya
Wo Mere Samane Hi Gaya Aur Main
Raaste Ki Tarah Dekhata Rah Gaya

Jhooth Vale Kahin Se Kahin Badh Gaye
Aur Main Tha Ki Sach Bolata Rah Gaye
Aandhiyon Ke Irade To Achche Na The
Yeh Diya Kaise Jalata Hua Rah Gaya
========================

Kept on staring upon seeing you
What could I say and what was even left to be said

How they overflowed from the edges of her eyes
Those affairs that stayed unexpressed on my lips

Every body parted at the junction of night as such
The road alone remained my last cotraveller

Think before you come this is lane of desire
My dear whoever stayed here stayed forever
======================


Aapko Dekhkar Dekhta Reh Gaya
Kya Kahoon Aur Kehne Ko Kya Reh Gaya

Unkee Aankhon Mein Kaise Chalakne Laga
Mere Honthon Pe Jo Majra Reh Gaya

Aise Bichde Sabhi Raat Ke Mod Par
Aakhri Hum-Safar Rasta Reh Gaya

Soch Kar Aao Kuye Tamanna Hai Yeh
Janeman Jo Yahan Reh Gaya Reh Gaya
