rajj ke rulaya
rajj ke hansaya
maine dil kho ke ishq kamaya
manga jo usne ek sitara
humne zameen pe chand bulaya

jo aankhon se haye
wo jo aankhon se ik pal naa ojhal huwe
wo jo aankhon se ik pal naa ojhal huwe
lapata ho gaye dekhte dekhte

sochta hun
sochta hun ke wo kitne masoom the
sochta hoon ke woh kitne masoom the
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte
sochta hun ke woh kitne masoom the
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte

sochta hun ke wo kitne masoom tha
sochta hun ke wo kitne masoom tha
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte
wo jo kahte the bichdenge naa hum kabhi
wo jo kahte the bichdenge naa hum kabhi
alvida ho gaye dekhte dekhte
sochta hu

ek main ek wo, aur shamein kai
chand roshan thay tab aasmaan mein kai
ek main ek wo, aur shaamein kai
chand roshan the tab aasmaan mein kai
yaariyon ka wo dariya utar bhi gaya
aur haathon mein bas ret hi reh gai

koi puchhe ke haye
koi puchhe ke humse khata kya hui
kyun khafa ho gaye dekhte dekhte
aate jaate thhe jo saans ban ke kabhi
aate jaate thhe jo saans ban ke kabhi
wo hawa ho gaye dekhte dekhte
wo hawa ho gaye haye
oh ho ho oh ho ho

wo hawa ho gaye dekhte dekhte
alvida ho gaye dekhte dekhte
lapata ho gaye dekhte dekhte
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte
jeene marne ki hum the wajah aur hum hi
jeene marne ki hum the wajah aur hum hi
bewajah ho gaye dekhte dekhte

sochta hun
sochta hun ke wo kitne masoom thhe
sochta hun ke wo kitne masoom thhe
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte
kya se kya ho gaye oh ho ho

You made me weep,
You made me laugh.
I lost my heart, yet earned love's craft.
She asked for a star,
I brought the moon to earth, a loft.

From eyes, alas,
Those who never vanished from my sight,
Those who never vanished from my sight,
Vanished, gone, before my eyes.

I ponder now,
I ponder how innocent they were,
I ponder how innocent they were,
How they changed, before my eyes, a lure.
I ponder how innocent they were,
How they changed, before my eyes, pure.

I ponder how innocent they were,
I ponder how innocent they were,
How they changed, before my eyes, to endure.
Those who vowed, "We'll never part,"
Those who vowed, "We'll never part,"
Said farewell, before my eyes, to depart.
I ponder now.

Just I and she, many evenings we shared,
Many moons illuminated the air.
Just I and she, many evenings we shared,
Many moons illuminated the air.
That river of friendship, it did subside,
And in my hands, only sand did reside.

If one should ask, alas,
If one should ask, what fault was mine,
Why did they turn, before my eyes, to resign?
They who came and went, as breath itself did flow,
They who came and went, as breath itself did flow,
Became mere air, before my eyes, to go,
Became mere air, alas,
Oh ho ho oh ho ho.

Became mere air, before my eyes, to go,
Said farewell, before my eyes, to bestow,
Vanished, gone, before my eyes, to sow,
How they changed, before my eyes, a glow.
We were each other's reason to live and die,
We were each other's reason to live and die,
Became reasonless, before my eyes, to lie.

I ponder now,
I ponder how innocent they were,
I ponder how innocent they were,
How they changed, before my eyes, to dare.
How they changed, before my eyes, to share,
How they changed, oh ho ho.
