Tere kooche me.n armaano.n, kee dunyaa, leke aaya hoon,

Woh afsaanaa mohabbat kaa kabhee jo, tuune chhe,da thaah

Woh afsaa,naa mohabbat, kaa kabhee jo, tuune chheda thaah
THAT ROMANCE OF LOVE WHICH YOU HAD SOMETIME INITIATED,

Kabhee jo, tuune chhe.daa thaah,
WHICH YOU HAD SOMETIME INITIATED,

Wohee afsaanaa honto.n par, adhooraa, leke aayaa hoo.n,
WITH THE SAME UNFINISHED ROMANCE ON MY LIPS, I’VE COME,

Tere kooche me.n armaano.n, kee dunyaa, leke aayaa hoo.n.
WITH A WORLD OF DESIRE, TO YOUR LANE I’VE COME.

lyrics

translation

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

-- William Shakespeare
