Tere binaa zindagee se koee
Shikvaaa, to naheė, Shikvaa naheė…
Kaash aisa ho, tere kadmȯ se
Chun ke manzil chale
Aur kaheė door kaheė
Tum agar saath ho
Manzilȯ kee kamee to naheė
Jee mė aataa hai, tere daaman mė
Sar jhukaa ke, ham
rote rahe, rote rahe
Teree bhee aȧkho mė
aȧsuo kee namee to naheė
Tum jo keh do to aaj kee raat
Chaand ḍoobegaa naheė
Raat ko rok lo
Raat kee baat hai
Aur zindagee
Baakee to naheeė
Even though I may not express any problems with thinking of a life without you, the truth is that a life without you is hardly a life.
I wish we could retake our journey with your steps. To pick our destinations afresh and walk someplace else, far far away. When you walk alongside me, there are so many places to be in!
All I want is to be in your embrace and to let go of my tears and my feelings. Are there tears in your eyes as well?
If you were to say so, the very moon will not set tonight. The night will stop at this moment. That is how much life is without you. Time will stop without you.
Aandhi (1975); Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar
