tum se pahle wo jo ek shakhs
yahan takht-nasheen tha
us ko bhi apne khuda hone pe
itna hi yaqeen tha
before you another man
was the ruling king here
who was just as convinced
that he was god himself
bahut pahle se un qadmon ki
aahaT jaan lete hain
tujhe, aye zindagi,
hum door se pehchaan lete hain
for a long time now, i recognize
the soft sound of your footsteps
oh life,
i recognize you from afar

itna to bata jaao
khafa hone se pahle
vo kya karen jo tum se
khafa ho nahin sakte
please, at least tell us this
before you get angry
what do those people do
who can't get angry with you?

dil ko bhi gham ka
saleeqa na tha pahle pahle
us ko bhi bhoolna
accha laga pahle pahle
initially, the heart too did not know
the ways and methods of grief
initially, it felt good
for it to overlook, forget
