ek pal ke rukne se

duur ho gayee manzil

1 / 1: Couplet

ek pal ke rukne se duur ho gayee manzil

sirf hum nahin chalte

raaste bhi chalte hain

by pausing for a moment

the goal slipped farther away

it is not only we that move,

the paths are moving too

pal (7)

moment, nurture

tostop

duur (7)

distant, far away

goal, destination

sirf (4)

only

move, go

path, paths
