I kept walking....

  The sun was departing from the sky,

I saw birds flying back to their homes;

I kept walking…. I kept walking….

People were leaving their offices,
with a hope to see their family soon,

I spotted on the west the full dull moon,

Clouds were turning into dark blue,

I felt the wind turning a bit chilly and cool.

I kept walking…. I kept walking….

Now the sun got completely, buried into the sky,

And I saw the dark foam like clouds at high;

The artificial lights filled the city in a row,

People were waiting outside the theater for the evening show;

I kept walking…. I kept walking….

Everyone was tooting horns on the traffic signal,

An auto just passed by me, playing Jagjit Singh 'Gajal';

Every corner of the road was filled with machines and people,

The wind grew stronger and moved my Jacket's Lapel;

I kept walking…. I kept walking….

The road to home was really full of excitements,

There were too many things happening around me,

but I was so silent;

The home was still two and half kilometer away 

when I took the right turn,

I assured myself not to worry as life is full of twists and turns.

I kept walking....I kept walking....
