Translations of forgotten paths

English:

Its been long
Since I wrote
Since the words came
Since words became
I wonder what it will be
To think and to see
Without the flow to guide
And to mind the thinking
I know this is a verse
Or not
I know this to be thought
Is to bound a soul
Closing the lid
To the paths untold
I used to write
I write
and it will keep writing

Hindi:
Kehne ko kuchh shabd hain kahin
Puchhta hun unse, kuchh ho sahi
Kabhi baat karne ko ho
Kabhi kahin likh aane ko
Puchhta hun unse, kuchh ho wahin
Aaj to yaad kar liya
Kuchh dil abaad kar liya
Kal fir bhool jane ko
Fir durian badhane ko
Yaad aaega tumhe, kuchh the kahin?
