English Translation
|
| Aapko dekh ke, dekh dekh ke raaz gaya yeh jaan |
After seeing you I've come to know about the secret |
| Shamma pe parwane kyun hote hai qurbaan |
As to why the moths sacrifice themselves in the flame |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
|
|
| Aapko dekh ke, dekh dekh ke raaz gayi yeh jaan |
After seeing you I've come to know about the secret |
| Chanda pe chakori kyun hoti hai qurbaan |
As to why the birds sacrifice themselves for the moon |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
|
|
| Abki bahaaron mein tumko phoolon se main milvaunga |
I'll ensure that you meet with the flowers this spring |
| Kya hoga bolo agar milungi |
What will happen when I meet them |
| Ki tumse behtar koi nahi yeh hai kali ko bataunga |
I'll tell the flowers that there's no one better than you |
| Phoolon se zyada kya main haseen hoon, din mein na khwaab dikhao |
Don't show me daydreams by saying that I'm more beautiful than the flowers |
|
|
| Aapko dekh ke, dekh dekh ke raaz gaya yeh jaan |
After seeing you I've come to know about the secret |
| Shamma pe parwane kyun hote hai qurbaan |
As to why the moths sacrifice themselves in the flame |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
|
|
| Aankhon ko jaise khwaabon ki, dhadkan ki dil ko zaroorat hai |
Like the eyes need dreams, just like that the heart needs heartbeats |
| Yeh sach kaha hai tumne toh dilbar |
Beloved, what you've said is the truth |
| Issi tarah se jaan-e-wafa mujhko tumhari zaroorat hai |
Just like that beloved, I need you as well |
| Yeh baat sach hai ya ke hai jhoothi, mujhko bata do kasam se |
Tell me if this is the truth or lies, you have my promise |
|
|
| Aapko dekh ke, dekh dekh ke raaz gayi yeh jaan |
After seeing you I've come to know about the secret |
| Chanda pe chakori kyun hoti hai qurbaan |
As to why the birds sacrifice themselves for the moon |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
|
|
| Aapko dekh ke, dekh dekh ke raaz gaya yeh jaan |
After seeing you I've come to know about the secret |
| Shamma pe parwane kyun hote hai qurbaan |
As to why the moths sacrifice themselves in the flame |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
| O meri jaan, O meri jaan |
O my beloved, O my beloved |
