Chalte Chalte Yunhi Koi Mil Gaya Tha

(1971)

I met someone by chance while walking
Walking around the path
The night suddenly came to a standstill
Just as it was about to fade away

What I was unable to voice The world is now saying
That a fable has been created
From those words which evaded me
That night of waiting will after all shorten soon
These lamps are dying As they burn alongside me
