Dekho Inhein Yeh Hain Aus Ki Boondein
Patton Ki Godh Mein Aasmaan Se Koodein
Look at them, they are like the drops of dew that hopped on to leaves from the sky
Angdayee Lein Phir Karwat Badal Kar
They take change in their own ways
Nazuk Se Moti Hans De Phisal Kar
These gentle pearls who laugh when they slip
Kho Na Jaaye Ye Taare Zameen Par
I wish these stars don't get lost on this Earth.
Yeh To Hain Sardi Mein Dhoop Ki Kirne
These are the rays of warmth during winter
Utarein Jo Aangan Ko Sunhera Sa Karne
who have descended to bring the golden light to your houses
Mann Ke Aandheron Ko Roshan Sa Kar Dein
in order to brighten up your gloomy hearts
Thiturti Hatheli Ki Rangat Badal Dein
To change the characteristic of the shaking palms
Jaise Aankhon Ki Dibiya Mein Nindiya
Like the sleep in your eyes
Aur Nindiya Mein Meetha Sa Sapna
Of the dreams in your sleep
Aur Sapne Mein Mil Jaaye Farishta Sa Koi
Like meeting the angel of your dreams
Jaise Rangon Bhari Pichkari
Like a pump filled with vibrant hues
Jaise Titliyan Phoolon Ki Kyari
Like butterflies on fragrant flowers
Jaise Bina Matlab Ka Pyara Rishta Ho Koi
Like a meaningful relationship full of love
Yeh To Aasha Ki Lehar Hain
These are the wave of hope
Yeh To Ummeed Ki Sehar Hain
They are the dawn filled with optimism
Khusiyon Ki Nehar Hain
They are the canal of happiness
Dekho Raaton Ke Seeney Pe Yeh Toh
Jhilmil Kisi Lau Se Ugey Hain
Look at how they have sprouted like a flame against the dark sky's chest
Yeh To Amboya Ki Khusboo Hain Baagon Se Beh Chale
They are the odour of the Ambya flower that have drifted from their gardens
Jaise Kaanch Mein Choodi Ke Tukde
Like the broken pieces of a glass bangle
Jaise Khiley Khiley Phoolon Ke Mukhdey
Like the fully blossomed flower
Jaise Bansi Koi Bajaye Pedon Ke Taley
As if someone is playing the flute amidst a copse of trees
Yeh To Jhonke Hain Pawan Ke
They are the gentle zephyr
Hain Yeh Ghungharoo Jeewan Ke
They are the anklet bells of life
Yeh To Sur Hain Chaman Ke
They are the tune of the garden of spring
Muhaley Ki Raunak
Of the luminance in a colony,
Galiyan Hain Jaise
Khilney Ki Zid Par Kaliyan Hain JaiseLike the streets are
Like the the buds pestering to blossom
Muthi Mein Mausam Ki Jaise Hawayein
Like the breeze in the fists of the weather
Yeh Hain Buzurgon Ke Dil Ki Duwayein
They are the blessings of the aged.
Kabhi Baatein Jaise Dadi Nani
Sometimes they talk like our grandmothers
Kabhi Chalkein Jaise Mum Mum Paani
Sometimes they spill like the lukewarm water
Kabhi Ban Jaaye Bhole Sawaalon Ki Jhadi
Sometimes they become the bush full of innocent questions
Sannatey Mein Hansee Ke Jaise
Like the laughter in a silent environment
Sooney Hothon Pe Khushi Ke Jaise
Like the smile of joy on someone's dry lips
Yeh To Noor Hain Barse agar Teri Kismat Ho Badi
Your fate must be blessed to come across these gems
Jaise Jheel Mein Lehraye Chanda
Like the moon drifts at the reflection of a lake
Jaise Bheed Mein Apne Ka Kandha
Like the support of a loved one in a crowd
Jaise Manmauji Nadiya Jhaag Udaye Kuch Kahe
Like the exuberant river spumes froth
Kaliyan Hain Jaise
Like the buds are
Jaise Baithe Meethi Si Jhapki
They sit like the sweet hugs
Jaise Pyar Ki Dheemi Si Thapki
Like the affectionate touch of love
Jaise Kaanon Mein Sargam Hardam Bajti Hi Rahe
Like the dulcet melody of the 7 swaras keep playing in your ears
Kho Na Jaaye Ye Taare Zameen Par
I wish these stars don't get lost on this Earth.

Shauk Hai Lyrics with meaning
One of the most simplest and arguably one of the best songs that AR Rahman has composed ever. A perfect example of Beauty in Simplicity. Beautifully rendered by Sowmya Raoh.
Raat ka shauk hai
I aspire of the night
Raat ki saundhi si
The earthen feel of the night time
Khamoshi ka Shauk hai
I aspire of silence
Subah ki roshni bezubaan subhon ki aur gungunaati
Those rays of the morning light humming towards the mute morning
Roshni ka shauk hai, oh shauk hai !
I aspire of light, I just aspire !
San sani anwlon ka
I aspire to taste the tangy amlas
Ke ishq ke banwlon ka
I aspire to experience the madness that lovers possess
San sani anwle
Of those pungent amlas
Ke ishq ke banwle
Of those crazy lovers
Barf se khelte badalon ka
I aspire of the clouds playing with the ice caps
Shauk hai (I aspire (to touch))
Kaash ye zindagi Khel hi khel mein kho gayi hoti
I wish this life were lost in its own play
Raat ka shauk hai
I aspire of the night
Neend ki goliyon ka
I aspire of those sleeping pills
Khwab ke loriyon ka
Of those lullabies that dreams have in store for me
Bezubaan aus ki boliyon ka; Shauk hai
I aspire of the words of these mute dew drops
Kaash ye zindagi binkahe binsune so gayi hoti
I wish this life never reacted to sound and words and just lay dead
