Ek Ghadi Lyrics Translation [D-Day]

Movie: D-Day
Music: Shankar Ehsaan Loy
Lyrics: Niranjan Iyenger
Singer: Rekha Bhardwaj

'Ek Ghadi' is a ghazal sung beautifully by Rekha Bhardwaj, in which the singer is reasoning with her beloved to stay another moment and not to leave yet.

Ek ghadi aur Theher ke jaan baaqi hai
Tere lab pe mere hone ka nishaan baaqi hai

Wait another moment, as there is life still remaining
Your lips still have the mark of my being there

Shab ke chehre pe chardha rang savere ka to kya
dhalte khwaabon mein abhi apna jahaan baaqi hai

So what if the color of morning has risen on evening’s face?
In setting dreams, our world is still remaining

Yoon bichhad ke mujh se na sazaa de khud ko
Abhi haathon se tere jurm-o-gunaah baaqi hai

Separating from me like this, don’t punish yourself
There are still crimes and sins left (to be committed) by your hands

Khilte phoolon ka fasaana to bas bahaana tha
Bujhte sholon ka dastaan baaqi hai

The story of blossoming flowers was just an excuse
The story of dying flames is still remaining

Aankhen sooni hain, meri maang ujdi hai to kya
Abhi haathon mein mere rang-e-henna baaqi hai

So what if my eyes are desolate.. and the parting of my hair disheveled?
The color of henna is still there is my hands..
