ek hasin shaam ko dil meraa kho gayaa
pahale apanaa huaa karataa thaa
ab kisikaa ho gayaa

muddato se aarazu thi
mere dil me koi aaye
suni suni zindagi me
ek shammaa jhilamilaaye
vo jo aaye to roshan zamaanaa ho gayaa
ek hasin

mere dil ke kaaravaa ko
le chalaa hai aaj koi
shabanami si jisaki aankhe
thodi jaagi thodi soyi
unako dekhaa to mausam suhaanaa ho gayaa
ek hasin

My heart, on a beautiful evening, was lost,
Once mine alone, a captive now, at what cost.

For ages, a yearning bloomed within,
For a soul to grace my life, to begin,
A flickering candle in a world so bare,
And with their arrival, the world did repair.

A beautiful evening...

The caravan of my heart, they lead away,
With eyes of dew, where secrets play,
Half-awake, half-asleep, a gentle guise,
And with their gaze, the very seasons rise.

A beautiful evening...
