The beautiful night has slipped away

The beautiful night has slipped away, don't know when you will come
Throughout the world the seasons have changed, don't know when you will come

The sights have shown their beautiful effects and are gone now
The stars shone and now are no more
Every light got lit
When are you going to come

I am waiting desperately for you here
The colour of spring is almost here in the beautiful season
The winds have also changed directions
Don't know when you will come

Well you remember a great song.

There is a long story behind this song and my first wife.

I will tell it one day

I say it's the one song I remember,but it's actually 2 my mom used to sing very well,she sang others but the other ones that stuck in my head were Thandi Hawaia,Shola jo badke.I googled them and tried to sing but it's impossible,i think you must be able to speak Urdu or Hindi,maybe just a bit.
I have to say though,I can sing just about all the old calypsos,sometimes my friends say to me,"boy,you should be a calypsonian".
