Adhuri si hai shaamein
Adhuri si hai barish
Adhuri si hai aarzoo, adhuri hai har khwaish
Karne ko toh hai baatein hazaron
Phir bhi kyun hai har baat adhuri
Chahte hai shayad, mere apne
Phir bhi lagti hai har chahat adhuri
Bhini si hai barish mein yeh mitti ki khushboo
Kahin reh gayi hai uski mehek adhuri
Raat gunguna rahi hai khubsoorti ki dastaan
Karvat mein hai ek ummeed
Reh gayi woh ummeed adhuri

The evening looked serene
The sunset was usual
The silver moon was half covered by clouds
The stars were scattered just so casual
The road seemed longer
Yearning for its favorite companion perhaps
Time stood still, reluctant to elapse
And then it was the ears longing for its patron—
The voice which makes it complete
The heart which was perhaps missing its own beat…

The crimson of the evening with dreams entangled
Calls out from a distance, to this mind so stranded
The blue shadow in the horizon so far
Is colored by the golden glow of the close of the day
Making the distant dreams feel so near

Maybe the mind that wanders would not look behind
Like the sight in the sky we behold
That of an unknown unnamed bird
Still I would make that mind my own
Set out for that abode unknown
To explore the orange of the setting sun
Through an unexplored horizon
