Lyrics Transliteration:

Original:
Kaash aisa koi manzar hota,
mere kaandhein pe tera sar hota

jama karta jo mein aaye hue sang,
sar chupaane ne ke liye ghar hota

is bulandi pe bahut tanha hoon,
kaash mein sabke baraabar hota

usne uljha diya duniya mein mujhe,
warna ek aur kalandar hota hai..

English Translation:
I wish there was a scene (moment),
where I could rest my head on your shoulders
Had I saved while I was earning,
I would have a roof over my head today
I have attained success but I am lonely here,
I wish I was just like the others ( ordinary)
I was caught in the worldly troubles and desires,
else I would have lead a happier life.
