"CHALTE CHALTE " A SONG SUNG BY LATE KISHORE KUMAR FOR THE FILM "CHALTE CHALTE"(1976)
While going along, remember this song of mine
Never say farewell
Never say farewell
Crying or laughing, keep humming like this
Never say farewell
Lets you and me get lost somewhere while making love
Lets sleep in the arms of these flowers after getting tired
Keep decorating my dreams just like this
Never say farewell
O my Love, If we ever get parted from each other in the middle of a path
And you will find that the path of life is more lonely
If you keep calling me like this, I will come back
Never say farewell
Never say farewell
