Tumhe dekhti hu to lagata hai aise - My pencil illustration for the song


tumhe dekhti hu to lagata hai aise
ke jaise yugo se tumhe janati hu
tumhe dekhti hu to lagata hai aise
ke jaise yugo se tumhe janati hu
agar tum ho sagar
agar tum ho sagar, mai pyasi nadi hu
agar tum ho sawan, mai jalti kali hu
piya tum ho sagar

mujhe meri neende
mujhe meri neende mera chain de do
mujhe mere sapno ki ek rain de do
yahi baat pahale
yahi baat pahale bhi tumse kahi thi
vahi baat phir aaj dohara rahi hu
agar tum ho sagar

tumhe chhu ke pal me bane dhul chandan
tumhe chhu ke pal me bane dhul chandan
tumhare mahak se mahakane lage tan
mahakane lage tan
mere pass aao
mere pass aao gale se lagaao
piya aur tumse kya chahati hu
tumhe dekhati hu to lagata hai aise
ki jaise yugo se tumhe janti hu
agar tum ho sagar

ho o muraliya samajh kar
muraliya samajh kar mujhe tum utha lo
bas ek baar hotho se apni laga lo
bas ek baar hotho se apni laga lo
koi sur to jaage
koi sur to jaage meri dhadkano me
ke mai apne sargam se ruthi hui hu
tumhe dekhati hu to lagata hai aise
ke jaise yugo se tumhe janti hu
agar tum ho sagar, mai pyasi nadi hu
agar tum ho sawan, mai jalati kali hu
piya tum ho sagar



Here is the translated version of the lyrics 

When I see you, it feels
As if I have known you for ages, for ages
When I see you, it feels
As if I have known you for ages

If you are the ocean,
I am a thirsty river
If you are the monsoon rain,
I am the burning bud

Beloved, you are the ocean
Give me my sleep,
Give me my peace
Grant me a night of my dreams

I said this before,
The same words I said to you before
Again today, I am repeating them

If you are the ocean,
Touching you, I become sandalwood dust
Touching you, I become sandalwood dust
Your fragrance fills my body
Your fragrance fills my body

Come to me,
Come to me, hold me close
Beloved, what else do I want from you?
When I look at you, it feels
As if I have known you for ages

If you are the ocean...

Oh Muraliya (flute), understand me
Understand me like the flute and lift me up
Just once, press your lips on mine
Just once, press your lips on mine
Let some melody awaken
Let some melody awaken in my heartbeat
For I am upset with my own musical note

When I see you, it feels
As if I have known you for ages
If you are the ocean, I am a thirsty river
If you are the monsoon rain, I am the burning bud
Beloved, you are the ocean
