vo shaam kuchh ajib thi, ye shaam bhi ajib hai
vo kal bhi paas paas thi, vo aaj bhi karib hai

jhuki hui nigaah me, kahi meraa kayaal thaa
dabi dabi hansi me ik, hasin saa savaal thaa
mai sochataa thaa, meraa naam gunagunaa rahi hai vo
na jaane kyun lagaa mujhe, ke muskuraa rahi hai vo
vo shaam kuchh ajib thi

meraa kayaal hai abhi, jhuki hui nigaah me
khuli hui hansi bhi hai, dabi hui si chaah me
mai jaanataa hun, meraa naam gunagunaa rahi hai vo
yahi kayaal hai mujhe, ke saath aa rahi hai vo

vo shaam kuchh ajib thi, ye shaam bhi ajib hai
vo kal bhi paas paas thi, vo aaj bhi karib hai

That evening, a strangeness bloomed, and this one wears the same guise,
She was near yesterday, and near again, before my wondering eyes.

Within her lowered gaze, my memory did reside,
And in her hushed, soft laughter, a lovely question did confide.
I thought, my name she whispers, a melody she keeps,
And something in me whispered, in her smile, my spirit sleeps.
That evening, a strangeness bloomed...

My thought remains, held within the gaze that bends,
Her open laughter lingers, where hidden longing transcends.
I know, my name she hums, a secret in the air,
And in this thought, I find her, her presence drawing near.

That evening, a strangeness bloomed, and this one wears the same guise,
She was near yesterday, and near again, before my wondering eyes.
