jheel pe jaise naav chale
aahista aahista
baadal mein aise chand chhipe
kahne ko hai ye bhi chehra

chhod aaye pichhe hum kisko kaha
unko khabar hai ki hum hai yaha
aaye baharon mein mehkaai raah
phir milne aayenge kya
bas thodi duri ye rasta kahe
rukne lage fir chal diye

jab wo humein yu dilate hain, vaasta vaasta
rishte hum aise nibhate hain
raat se jaise koi subah
ab hai nazar mein ek aisa sama
lekar hi aayenge tumko yahan
anjaan raaho ke ajaan raahi
jayen to jayen kahan
tum ho salamat ye dil yun kahe
chahe mile ya na mile
dur se jo bulaenge to, aaja na aaja na
chahe sawari bhi na mile
ho sake to chal ke hi aana

Like a boat on a lake, it glides,
So gently, so slow.
Like the moon hidden in clouds,
A face, though unseen, we know.

Whom did we leave behind, and where?
Do they know we still linger here?
We perfumed the path with spring's embrace,
Will we meet again in this place?
Just a little distance this road does impart,
We paused, then again we did start.

When they remind us, with reminders so deep,
Such bonds of kinship, we keep.
Like a dawn breaking into the night,
Now a vision bathed in light.
We will bring you here, you see,
Strangers on unknown paths, where will we be?
Your safety, my heart whispers in time,
Whether we meet or decline.
If from afar you call out to me, come, oh come,
Even if no chariot be won.
If you can, walk this path, be near.
