Original Lyrics

English Translation
|
| Raaton raat tara koi |
In the night spread with stars |
| Chand ya sitara koi |
If the moon or any star falls |
| Gire toh utha lena |
Then pick it up |
| O suniyon re |
O please listen to what I'm saying |
| Tara chamkila hoga |
The star will shine |
| Chand sharmila hoga |
The moon will be shy |
| Nath mein laga lena |
So adorn it on your nose as a nose ring |
| Raaton raat tara koi |
In the night spread with stars |
| Chand ya sitara koi |
If the moon or any star falls |
| Gire toh utha lena |
Then pick it up |
| O suniyon re |
O please listen to what I'm saying |
| Tara chamkila hoga |
The star will shine |
| Chand sharmila hoga |
The moon will be shy |
| Nath mein laga lena |
So adorn it on your nose as a nose ring |
|
|
| Zara si saawari hai woh |
She's a little dusky |
| Zara si baawari hai woh |
She's a little naive |
| Woh surme ki tarah meri |
Just like kohl |
| Aankhon mein hi rehti hai |
She stays in my eyes |
|
|
| Subah ke khwaab se udai hai |
I've stolen her from my morning dream |
| Palkon ke neeche chupai hai |
I've hidden her beneath my eyelids |
| Mano na mano tum |
Believe it or not |
| Sote sote khwaabon mein bhi khwaab dikhati hai |
She can show you a dream within another dream |
| Mano na mano tum |
Believe it or not |
| Pari hai woh pari ki kahaniyan sunati hai |
She's a fairy and she tells fairy tales |
| Khudaya khair, khudaya khair |
O God, may everything be alright |
| Khudaya khair, khudaya khair |
O God, may everything be alright |
|
|
| Raaton raat tara koi |

|
| Tu hawa main zameen |
You're the wind, I'm the earth |
| Tu jahan main wahin |
I'm there wherever you are |
| Jab udhe mujhe leke kyun udhti nahin |
When you fly, why don't you take me with you |
| Tu ghata main zameen |
You're the cloud, I'm the earth |
| Tu kahin main kahin |
You're someplace and I'm someplace else |
| Kyun kabhi mujhe leke barasti nahin |
Why don't you take me with you when you rain |
| Zara sa saawara hai woh |
He's a little dusky |
| Zara sa baawara hai woh |
He's a little naive |
| Woh surme ki tarah meri |
Just like kohl |
| Aankhon mein hi rehta hai |
He stays in my eyes |
|

|
| Jab daanth mein ungli dabaye |
When she bites her finger with her teeth |
| Ya ungli pe lat liptaye |
Or when she twists her hair around her finger |
| Badal yeh nichadta jaye |
Then the clouds gets squeezed |
| Kuch karke woh baat ko taale |
When he does something, he starts to look away |
| Jab maathe pe woh bal dale |
When he puts a frown on his face |
| Ambar yeh sukadhta jaye |
Then the sky starts to shrink |
| Woh jab nakhoon kutarti hai |
When she bites her nails |
| Toh chanda ghatne lagta hai |
Then the moon starts to go down |
| Woh pani par kadam rakhe |
When she steps on water |
| Sagar bhi hat jata hai |
Then even the sea makes way for her |
|
|
| Subah ke khwaab se udai hai |
I've stolen her from my morning dream |
| Palkon ke neeche chupai hai |
I've hidden her beneath my eyelids |
| Mano na mano tum |
Believe it or not |
| Sote sote khwaabon mein bhi khwaab dikhati hai |
She can show you a dream within another dream |
| Mano na mano tum |
Believe it or not |
| Pari hai woh pari ki kahaniyan sunati hai |
She's a fairy and she tells fairy tales |
| Khudaya khair, khudaya khair |
O God, may everything be alright |
| Khudaya khair, khudaya khair |
O God, may everything be alright |
| Khudaya khair, khudaya khair |
O God, may everything be alright |
| Khudaya khair, khudaya khair |
O God, may everything be alright |
