A warrior alone was given an idea to join a cult
He let another soul come into his life,
He thought solitaire 'd be lost
He was naive, it was his only fault.

The soul was itself alone and confused
It knew only its own complexities,
It was uncertain, moody and untuned
The warrior became a listener and remained overlooked.

Now the warrior is fighting the battles of the soul
He was, is, 's been alone,
god assigned him a role
Listen, weep, fight, face the storm
But now, not only his own.

ये टूटे पत्थर,‌ मुर्तियां और खंडहर
निशानियां हैं, वक्त के बदलने की,
जिंदगी की रवानी की, उन ताकतवर शहंशाहों की
जो थे, रहे होंगे, अब फ़कत मट्टी हैं।

वक्त कब रूका है?
ना रूकेगा, आप क्यों रूके है फिर?
चलिए कि इससे पहले आप खंडहर हो जाएं,
चलिए फिरये कि आप निशानी हो जाएं।

आपकी सारी जुस्तजू ख़त्म होनी है,
रात होनी है, तो होनी है।
जिंदगी महज़ एक दिन है, बीतेगा तो ये हर हाल,
कैसे बीतेगा, कहां बीतेगा, यही वो अनहोनी है।

जो यहां दफन है,
बड़े सूरमा थे, बाअक्ल भी थे,
क्या शान थी इनकी, ठाठ थे।
अब नहीं है, रहे होंगे।

I loved the hills, mountains, shore of the sea,
I was fond of the local streets of the city, cafes and bazaars,
I lost everything after separating with you.

Every place makes me remember you, the moment we lived on hills, mountains and at the shore of the sea.

Streets, cafes and bazaars haunt me.

There are still hills, mountains, shores, streets, cafes, bazaars and even me but you.

Without you, they are nothing but a heath.

Ah, love, let us be together
The river which flows before us,
Boys bathe in it, boatman waits in it,
Are the witness of my love to you.

The people that are happy on the shores,
The wind that touches your face,
The chairs we sit in, my hand in your hand
Are the witness of my love to you.

Your sharing your thoughts with me there,
Our gazing at the waves of the river,
Our kiss, your leaning towards me,
Are the witness of my love to you.

The palace we see before us,
A king used to live there with his queen.
The palace is witness of their affection
To each other, so are these river, boys, boatman, waves, wind to ours.

Ah, love, let us be together.

उसके हाथों से एक बोतल छूटी है,
उसने फिर एक बार अपने प्यार का इज़हार किया है।

शायद अब उसने होश किया है,
मेरा हाथ झटका है, होंठो को उसने फिर से सिला है।

वह चाहता है सिर्फ वस्ल की रातें हों,
हमने भी उससे अफलातूनी मोहब्बत का सवाल किया है।

वह कहती है, मुझे चाहती है,
हमने भी इस झूठ को अब अख़्तियार किया है।‌

Oh boy! No matter how hard you try to crimp your life up.
It was, is and will be scattered like toys of a baby, out of the box.

Cry! Cry! Cry for embellishments.
It was ruined, destroyed and beyond repair.
You did a bit better, now, Stop! For God sake. Stop for God sake whom you don't believe in.

The thing you see fallen from the heaven, is not blessing.
It's your weapons against harrassing.
No one is there, never has been. Pick it and fight.

Yes! broken, teared down, and tired knights exist. They exist for just keep fighting until they rest.

They rest in heaven which is not in existence according to you. Where will you rest?
In arms? Huh! It happens in fiction, knight.

Run! If you can. Run for your sake. Run for yourself whom you have forgotten.

Shut up! It's possible to be selfish. World is, has been, and will be to you.

Oh boy! You had crimped your life? It's scattered again. Look! For God sake.
Keep trying. Fragile lives don't last long.

I love you and you love me,
We both know the truth.
You don't say, I won't admit too,
Our love doesn't need a proof.

I hesitate, you are just shy,
We felt the same, when our hands got touched.
I smile adoring you, you adore my smiling,
You see me secretly, I do the same, we are detached.

You get jealous when a girl comes near me,
I get anxious when you talk to others.
What will happen to our love?
We are one but seperated like two parts of tweezers.
