Fursat

Umr Bhar
Itne Mashroof Rahe
Ke Hazaar-Ha Fursat Ko
Taraste Rahe Hum

Ab Jab
Fursat Hi Fursat Hai
Zindagi Jeene Ki
Na Jaane Maut Ko
Itni Kyon Jaldi Hai
Humse Milne Ki
________________________

Mashroof = busy, Hazaar-Ha = thousand times, Fursat = leisure

All my life
I was ever so busy
That I pined for leisure
A thousand times....

Now that I have all the time
To live life leisurely
Death seems to be in a hurry
To meet me.
