7) AGAYII YAAD SHAAM DHALTE HII
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
Bujh gayaa dil chiragh jalte hii
The heart was extinguished even as the flame kept burning
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
(Khul gaye shahr-e-Gham ke darwaze)3
The doors opened to the place where my pain lives
(Ek zaraa sii havaa ke chalte hii)2
at the blowing of the slightest breeze
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
(Kaun thaa tu ke phir na dekha tujhe)3
Who were you, I never laid eyes on you again,
(Mit gayaa Khwaab aankh malte hii)2
The dream came to an end as I was rubbing my eyes
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
(Tu bhii jaise badal saa jaataa hai)3
You keep on changing as I watch
(Aks-e-diiwaar ke badalte hii)2
just as the shadow on a wall
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
Bujh gayaa dil chiragh jalte hii
The heart was extinguished even as the flame kept burning
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
(Khul gaye shahr-e-Gham ke darwaze)3
The doors opened to the place where my pain lives
(Ek zaraa sii havaa ke chalte hii)2
at the blowing of the slightest breeze
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
Bujh gayaa dil chiragh jalte hii
The heart was extinguished even as the flame kept burning
(Aa gayii yaad sham Dhalte hii)2
The memory came back as soon as the evening wore
