first love - pehli muhabbat

the first eye contact, that feeling
from the pits to every pore
hypersensitive walk on air
bright smile on every face
no hurdle insurmountable
(yeah that am-god feeling*)


pehli mohabbat ki kya baat hay
pehli mohabbat ki kya shaan hay

then the volcanoes erupt
and earth splits open
waves of water and lava
submerges hope, sinks dreams
of all morrows dreamt

and a few moments later
that effervescent smile
that to-die-for-smile
flashes and all the gloom
whirls and withers away

the sun is shining
the sun is smiling
____________for she is smiling

pehli mohabbat ki kya baat hay
pehli mohabbat ki kya shaan hay
