Kabhi Kabhie


Kabhi Kabhie
--------
Original by Sahir Ludhianvi
(Translated by N.Madhavan)

Sometimes I feel as if you were made for me

Sometimes I feel as if you were made for me
You lived before amid the stars of the galaxy
You were summoned to the earth for my sake, my love
I do have such thoughts somehow

Sometimes I feel as if you were made for me

Sometimes I feel I hear
soulful tunes on the streets
And then I raise your veil on the wedding night,
our eyes do then meet
And you slink into my arms that lie outstretched
Sometimes I do have such thoughts, farfetched

This body, these eyes, these arms are mine, I feel
The cool shades of your tresses were made for my appeal
I know you are a stranger but still
These thoughts do my being fill
