All This Loneliness

(Yeh Viraaniyaan - Namaste London)

Those days, when You were with me,
Life was wide awake,
All the seasons were my best friends,
The paths were invitations
Written by destinations for us on the ground...
The trees opened their boughs
To drape us in the shawls of shade...
In the evenings, all the stars
Used to smile watching us...
The winds, singing the songs of fragrance,
Used to tease us and pass away,
The sky was a lake of the moonlight,
In which every night a flower of the moon used to bloom
And in the lake of the moonlight
It used to touch the banks of the rivers of our hearts...
Those days, when You were with me,

My love, when it got thirsty,
Then my sadness got even deeper...
My Life, without You
Has all this Loneliness...
All this Loneliness...

All the roads are empty,
All the destinations are pointless, Love,
My eyes are still desperately searching,
My heart is still bare...
Love...
Only Loneliness only surrounds me,
In my heart lies only silence,
My Life, without You
Has all this Loneliness...
All this Loneliness...

Whenever I breathe,
My breath pinches in my chest, Love,
Even now, there is a a ray of hope that pinches in my heart, Love,
Love...
All my dreams are about to be shattered,
Even the straws that I clutch at are a stretch...
My Life, without You
Has all this Loneliness...
All this Loneliness...
