Tum
[ you ]
Tere laboN ki lehek khilti huyi kaliyoN ki tarah
[ the lustre of your lips is like a blooming flower ]
Tere baloN ki namiN waadi-e-ghataoN ki tarah
[ the moist in your hair is like a valley of clouds ]
Tere badan ki mehek khushbu-e-gulshan ki tarah
[ the odour of your body is like the smell of a flowery garden ]
Teri aankhoN ki shafaq chandni kirnoN ki tarah
[ the healing in your eyes is like the soothing rays of the moonlight ]
Teri kamar ki lachak behti shokh nehroN ki tarah
[ the swing in your waist is like a free flowing stream ]
Teri jawani ki tapish dehekte huye angaaroN ki tarah
[ the heat of your youth is like the burning coal ]
Tere kangan ki khanak is dil pe huyi dastak ki tarah
[ the sound of your bracelet is like a tap on the door of my heart ]
Teri payal ki chanak haNste huye bachpan ki tarah
[ the chimes of your ankle bracelet is like a laughing childhood ]
Tere zewar ki chubhan kuch bhooli yaadoN ki tarah
[ the pinch of your jewelry is like some forgotten memories ]
Teri nazroN ki lapak dil mein uthe armanoN ki tarah
[ the flames in your gaze is like the bursting desires in my heart ]
Teri hasiN ki chatak bikharte jharnoN ki tarah
[ the crackling in your laughter is like splashing waterfalls ]
Tere aasuoN ki chamak narm oos booNdoN ki tarah
[ the glitter in your tears is like soft dew drops ]
Tera ye saath humdum khuld ke baghoN ki tarah
[ your company, my soulmate, is like the gardens of eden ]
