Alvida…

chupake se kahin, dheeme paanv se
jaane kis taraf, kis ghadi
aage badh gaye hamse raahon mein
par tum toh abhi the yahin
kuchh bhi na suna, kab ka tha gila
kaise keh diya alvida

Silently, with a light step,
I don’t know when, in which direction
You stepped ahead of me leaving me behind
But you were here just a while ago
You chose to hear nothing, when did I offend you?
How could you say goodbye?

jinke darmiya guzri thi abhi
kal tak yeh meri zindagi
dono baahon ko, thandi chaanv ko
hum bhi kar chale alvida
alvida, alvida, meri raahein alvida
meri saansein kehati hai, alvida
alvida, alvida, abb kehna aur kya
jab tune keh diya, alvida

Till yesterday, the life I spent,
Held between those two arms of yours
And the shade from the glaring sun,
I have bid all of them goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, the road I was traveling on
My dying breath says goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, nothing else left to say
Now that you have bid me goodbye

sunle bekhabar, yuun aankhein pher kar aaj tu chali ja
dhundegi nazar humko hi magar har jagah
aisi raaton mein leke karvate, yaad hamein karna
aur phir haar kar kehna kyun magar, keh diya alvida alvida
koi puchhe toh zara, kya socha aur kaha alvida
alvida, alvida, abb kehna aur kya
jab tune keh diya, alvida

Listen to me, you can leave today without looking at me
Your eyes will still search for me everywhere you go
On nights like these, you will remember me tossing and turning
And then you’ll get tired and wonder why you said goodbye
somebody go ask… why he said goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, nothing else left to say
Now that you have bid me goodbye

Dil chale, phir bhi dil kahe
kaash mere sang aaj hote tum agar, hoti har dagar gulsita
tumse hai khafa, hum naaraaz hai, dil hai pareshaan
socha na suna tune kyun bhala keh diya alvida alvida
koi puchhe toh zara, kya socha aur kaha alvida
alvida, alvida, abb kehna aur kya
jab tune keh diya, alvida

My heart goes on, but still it says,
I wish you were here with me today, every road would have been a garden
I am upset with you, a little angry, and my heart is in a turmoil
You didn’t think, or listen, why then did you say goodbye?
Somebody ask… what did he think before saying goodbye…
Goodbye, Goodbye, nothing else left to say
Now that you have bid me goodbye
