(This is my translation of a Jagjit Singh gazal - Pyaar kaa pehlaa khat)
To pen the first words of love - it does take time
For the first flight of a dove - it does take time
It isn't just the body, my destination is the soul
For such long journeys - it does take time
Entangled in a knot - a thread or a kin
Unravel hard as you can – it does take time
I've finally found a cure for the wound to my heart
But to heal a cut that deep – it does take time
