KHAMOSH RAAT
| khaamosh raat sahamii havaa | A silent night, a fearsome wind; |
| tanha tanha dil apna... | My heart is lonely... |
| aur duur kahii.n roshan hu'aa ek chehara ek chehara ek chehara | And then, somewhere far away, a light dawned: a face, a face, a face. |
| yeh sach hai ya sapna... | Is this truth, or a dream? |
| jhukii jhukii palke.n jab uTHii.n | When downcast eyelids rose, |
| naino.n me.n diye maddham maddham | in those eyes were dim lamps. |
| aadh khule ho.nTHo.n se ha.nsii | On slightly parted lips was a smile, |
| jha.nk rahii maddham maddham | just barely showing through. |
| kaise kahaa.n phir ho ga'ii | How and where |
| uskii chhavii maddham maddham | did her image then become indistinct? |
| pal pal uThtii hasrate.n | The longings stirred by each moment |
| hone lagii.n maddham maddham | became indistinct. |
| aur duur kahii.n roshan hu'aa ek chehara ek chehara ek chehara | And then, somewhere far away, a light dawned: a face, a face, a face. |
| suuraj tha benuur sa | The sun was lightless, |
| uskii damak maddham maddham | its brilliance dimming. |
| chaa.nd bhii tha bujha bujha | The moon was also extinguished; |
| taare bhii the maddham maddham | the stars faded. |
| jugnuu.n dilaasa dene lage | The fireflies tried to encourage them. |
| nanhii sii jaan maddham maddham | Their tiny spirits grew dim. |
| shamaa bhii thak haarke | The lamp, defeated, grew weary |
| hone lagii maddham maddham | and began to flicker. |
| aur duur kahii.n roshan hu'aa ek chehara ek chehara ek chehara | And then, somewhere far away, a light dawned: a face, a face, a face. |
| jiine ka tha ham me.n dam | I had the courage to live, |
| par nahii.n tha koii hamdam | but I had no life companion. |
| khushiyo.n kii thii justujuu | I searched for happiness, |
| mil rahe the bas gam hii gam | but found only grief upon grief. |
| shor me.n aise duniya ke bhii | Amidst the clamor of the world, |
| khamoshii thii aur ek the ham | there was silence, and I was alone. |
| raahe.n sabhii thii.n suunii suunii | All the roads were empty. |
| uTH rahe the qadam tham tham | I walked down them slowly, slowly. |
