Roman script

O be-khabar tujh ko kya fiqar

Kaisa ho gaya hai yeh mujh pe jo asar

Main luti haan luti

 Main saari bas tere liye

O heedless one, why should you care

What your love has done to me

I have devoted myself to you body and soul

Sun sitam-gar kuchh to reham kar

Mar jaaungi main na tu mila agar

 Sohne sapnon ki duniya sajaayi maine tere liye

Listen, o cruel one, have just a little mercy

I’ll die if you don’t become mine

I’ve laid out a world of beautiful dreams for you

Yoon na sata dil naa jala

 Tere ‘ishq mein hoon main mubtala

Don’t torment me like this, don’t make my heart tremble with pain

I am hopelessly in love with you

Deedaar kara de

 Ik baar phir mujhe pyaar de

Love me once again

Let me have a glimpse of you

Kaate naa kate re ratiya saiyaan intizaar mein

Kaate naa kate re ratiya saiyaan intizaar mein

Haaye haaye main to mar gayi be-dardi tere pyaar mein

Oye hoye main to mar gayi be-dardi tere pyaar mein

 Kaate naa kate re ratiya…

It is difficult to pass the night, beloved, as I wait for you breathlessly

Alas! Love for you has killed me, cruel beloved

Oh alas! Love for you has killed me, cruel beloved

It is difficult to pass the night

Hoon be-sabar mujh ko hai yeh ḍar

Bhool jaana naa mujhe sun o dilbar

 Har sukoon har khushi lutaayi main ne tere liye…

I am restless and afraid that

You may just forget about me, o heart-stealer

I’ve given up all my happiness and peace for you

Din rain tire sapnon mein rahoon

Tu aaye na jaaye main ka se kahoon

Din rain tire sapnon mein rahoon

 Tu aaye na jaaye

I remain lost in your dreams all day and night

But you neither arrive nor depart, who should I tell my woe to?

I remain lost in your dreams all day and night

But you neither arrive nor depart…

O kaahe sataaya tu ne

Sapna dikhaaya tu ne

 Sapna dikhaaya…

Why did you torment me so?

You showed me such wonderful dreams

…Such wonderful dreams

Yoon na sata dil naa jala

Tere ‘ishq mein hoon main mubtala

Deedaar kara de

 Ik baar phir mujhe pyaar de

Don’t torment me like this, don’t make my heart tremble with pain

I am hopelessly in love with you

Let me have a glimpse of you

Love me once again

Kaate nah

Kaate nah

Kaate naa kate re ratiya saiyaan intizaar mein

 Kaate naa kate re ratiya saiyaan intizaar mein

It is difficult to pass the night, beloved, as I wait for you breathlessly

Haaye haaye main to mar gayi be-dardi tere pyaar mein

Oye hoye main to mar gayi be-dardi tere pyaar mein

Main to mar gayi bedardi tere pyaar mein

Tere pyaar mein…

Tere pyaar mein

Tere pyaar mein

 Tere pyaar mein

Alas! Love for you has killed me, cruel beloved

Oh alas! Love for you has killed me, cruel beloved

Love for you has killed me, cruel beloved

Love for you…

Yoon na sata dil naa jala

Tere ‘ishq mein hoon main mubtala

Deedaar kara de

 Ik baar phir mujhe pyaar de

Don’t torment me like this, don’t make my heart tremble with pain

I am hopelessly in love with you

Let me have a glimpse of you

Love me once again

Tere pyaar mein

Tere pyaar mein

 Tere pyaar mein

Love for you…
