Baawara Mann (The Bewitched Mind)

The bewitched mind is on its way to dream
The bewitched mind has bewitched thoughts

It beats crazily and takes crazy breaths
Why does sleep run away from the crazy twisting and turning

The bewitched eyes long to watch bewitching sights through the bewitching jharokas
The bewitched mind is on its way to dream
In this crazy world, I wish I had some bewitching company

With this scheming crowd around, I wish your hands were in mine
Wish there was a bewitching melody and a bewitching composition

My bewitched feet desire to dance to the bewitching tunes of bewitching songs
The bewitched mind is on its way to dream
I wish the darkness was bewitching and so was the silence

I wish quivering lips go easy, the intoxication is bewitching
One bewitched veil, slowly tells us of the break of dawn with a bewitched face
The bewitched mind is on its way to dream...

- Translated lyrics of the song "Baawara Mann" from one of my favourite movie "Hazaaron Khwaahishen Aisi"
