mai ek lahar hu jo, samay ki nadi se
bas tumse milne, kinare thi aayi
magar jo bhi ho, har ek lahar ko
mit jana hai, nadi me hi jaake

tumko maine chaha bhi hai, tumhi ko maine gam bhi diye
sharminda hu, sharminda hu, sharminda hu
tumko maine chaha bhi hai, tumhi ko maine gam bhi diye
sharminda hu, sharminda hu
sach kahti hu dil hi dil me, sharminda hu

dunia jo chahe kah le, par tujhko milne se pahle
khud se bhi na mil saka tha mai, khoya sa tha mai uljha sa tha
ki tujh bin meri na thi khoi rahe
meri zindagi tujh bin thi, jaise os ki bund
patti se ab giri ab giri
os ki bund patti se, ab giri ab giri

mai agar sans thi, tum khusbu the, kaise kaise pal pal yado ke
tumhe aise kho ke, akeli mai zinda hu kyu
kagaz tha mai hawa me udta, tune mujh par jaane kya likh diya
mujhko ab to naye sabd hai mil gaye, hai sabd ye pyar ke
tumko maine chaha bhi hai, tumhi ko maine gam bhi diye
sharminda hu, sharminda hu
sach kahti hu dil hi dil me, sharminda hu

sitaro se aage jaha aur bhi hai
abhi ishk ke imtiha aur bhi hai, aur bhi hai
tu shahin hai parwaz hai, kaam tera tere samne
aasman aur bhi hai, sitaro se aage jaha aur bhi hai
tum ho sach ke ho koi parchhai
kya tumhe ek khwab ho, jo kahi nahi
bhigi hai palke meri, takiye hai mere man
tum hi batao mujhko, kaise bhulau ye gam
tumko maine chaha bhi hai, tumhi ko maine gam bhi diye
sharminda hu, sharminda hu, sharminda hu

dunia jo chahe kah le, par tujhko milne se pahle
khud se bhi na mil saka tha mai
khoya sa tha mai uljha sa tha
ki tujh bin meri na thi khoi rahe
meri zindagi tujh bin thi, jaise os ki bund
patti se ab giri ab giri
meri zindagi tujh bin thi, jaise os ki bund
patti se ab giri ab giri
os ki bund patti se, ab giri ab giri

I am a wave, drawn from time's river,
arriving at the shore, just to meet you.
But as it must, each crest, each ripple,
must vanish, returning to the river's deep blue.

I loved you, yet I gave you sorrow,
ashamed, ashamed, ashamed.
I loved you, yet I gave you sorrow,
ashamed, ashamed,
truly, in my heart, I am ashamed.

Let the world speak, before I found you,
I could not find myself, lost, entangled.
Without you, my paths were scattered,
my life, without you, was like dewdrops,
falling now from the leaf, falling.
Dewdrops falling now from the leaf, falling.

If I was breath, you were the fragrance,
moments, memories, how they linger.
How can I live, alone, having lost you?
I was paper, adrift in the wind,
and you wrote upon me, what, I wonder?
Now I have found new words,
words of love.
I loved you, yet I gave you sorrow,
ashamed, ashamed.
Truly, in my heart, I am ashamed.
Beyond the stars, a world awaits,
love's tests still lie ahead, and more.
You are a soaring flight, your task before you,
a vast sky still remains, beyond the stars a world.
Are you truth, or merely a shadow?
A dream perhaps, nowhere to be found?
My eyelids are wet, my pillow bears my tears.
Tell me, how can I forget this grief?
I loved you, yet I gave you sorrow,
ashamed, ashamed, ashamed.

Let the world speak, before I found you,
I could not find myself.
Lost, entangled.
Without you, my paths were scattered,
my life, without you, was like dewdrops,
falling now from the leaf.
My life, without you, was like dewdrops,
falling now from the leaf.
Dewdrops falling now from the leaf.
