I wish I could turn the clock back and begin from the start.
When my life accepted it as one of its most integral parts.

Those who wanted it envied me a ton.
But I never hesitated to show it to everyone.

When I received it, I didn't know its value.
But time will make me fall for it, I never had a clue.

Some bonds are unbreakable, our bond is one of those.
Circumstances separated us, but distances brought us close.

It has a special place in my heart; maybe my life doesn't anymore.
It's something, difficult to express, how much I adore.

It taught me to be patient and gave me joy in gloomy hours.
But fate had its role to play, maybe there was a fault in our stars!

Lately, I have realized that time is so swift.
I still remember the day I received 'Kathak' as my fifth birthday gift!

I want to thank my mother for giving me such a wonderful present.
For helping me discover my true self and explore my talent.

When everyone's asleep, my hands begin to sway.
That's probably how my silent cries find their way.

Reminiscences of the past allure me, but my present pulls me back.
I long to relive those moments; their memory gives me heartache!
