Lyrics: Ghulam Mohammed
Chalte chalte, yuun hii koii mil gaya tha
sare raah chalte chalte
Translation: Walking along
just like this I met someone
walking on the road
Vahiin thamke rah gaii hai
merii raat chalte chalte
Stopping right there, I have remained
my night, fading
Jo kahii gaii na mujhse
voh zamaanaa kah rahaa hai
What I couldn’t manage to say
the world is speaking for me
Ki fasaanaa
ki fasaanaa ban gaii hai.
merii baat chalte chalte
That story,
that story has been created
of my words, spilling out
Yuun hii koii mil gaya tha
sare raah chalte chalte
Just like this I met someone
walking on the road
Shab-e-intazaar aakhir
kabhii hogii muqt asar bhii
Finally, night’s wait
will experience an emancipation
Ye chiraag
ye chiraag bujh rahe hain
mere saath jalte jalte
These lamps
These lamps are going out,
burning with me
Ye chiraag bujh rahe hain
mere saath jalte jalte
These lights are going out
burning with me
Yuun hii koii mil gaya tha
sare raah chalte chalte
Just like this, I met someone
walking down the road
