teri khushboo aur teri saanse katra katra sab bhulayenge
silvate jo tumne chhodi hain dheere dheere sab mitayenge

kaatne ko itni lambi umr aage hai
jaane kiske peeche tu bewajah bhaage hai
aankh nam hoti hai hone do, honth lekin muskurayenge
uski raato se subah apni rafta rafta kheench laayenge

aisa koi dil nahi jo kabhi toota nahi
kaanch se ummeed kya rakhna
aisa koi dil nahi jo kabhi toota nahi
kaanch se ummeed kya rakhna

kaatne ko itni lambi umr aage hai
jaane kiske peeche tu bewajah bhaage hai
aankh nam hoti hai hone do, honth lekin muskurayenge
uski raato se subah apni rafta rafta kheench laayenge

chal nayi shuruaat kar bhool ke jo ho gaya
haath pe yun haath kya rakhna
chal nayi shuruaat kar bhool ke jo ho gaya
haath pe yun haath kya rakhna

kaatne ko itni lambi umr aage hai
jaane kiske peeche tu bewajah bhaage hai
teri khushbu aur teri saanse katra katra sab bhulayenge
silvate jo tumne chhod i hain dheere dheere sab mitayeng

Your scent, your breath, a memory I'll erase, bit by bit.
The creases you left, gently, I shall smooth away, bit by bit.
A vast life stretches onward, waiting to be lived.
Why chase shadows, needlessly, why be deprived?
Let tears fall, if they must; yet, let my lips still smile.
From her darkness, I shall slowly steal my sunrise, mile by mile.

There's no heart that hasn't fractured, hasn't known the blow.
Why expect solace from shattered glass, why plant and sow?

Let tears fall, if they must; yet, let my lips still smile.
From her darkness, I shall slowly steal my sunrise, mile by mile.

Begin anew, and leave the past behind, let the remnants go.
Why cling to hands that offer nothing, in life's ebb and flow?
