jo aag dil me.n,   lagee  huwee  hai
THE FIRE THAT RAGES IN THE HEART,

Ho..

THE FIRE THAT RAGES IN THE HEART,

yahee toh manzil,  kee raushnee hai
‘TIS THE DESTINATION’S LIGHT,

yahee toh manzil,  kee  raushnee hai,
‘TIS THE DESTINATION’S LIGHT,


naa yeh bhuji hai naa yeh bhujegee,
IT HAS’NT EXTINGUISHED – NOR WILL IT EXTINGUISH!

tumhaare pehloo me.n ‘gar maray hamm
IF I WERE TO DIE BESIDE YOU,

Ho,

tumhaare pehloo,  me.n ‘gar maray hamm,
IF I WERE TO DIE BESIDE YOU,

toh maut kitnee,  haseen hogee  
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DEATH THEN IT WOULD BE,

toh maut kitnee, haseen hogee,
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DEATH THEN IT WOULD BE,

chitaa me.n jal kar bhee naa miTegee,
EVEN IN THE BURNING PYRE IT WON’T PERISH,


sadaa rahee  hai,
IT’S ALWAYS REMAINED,

sadaa  rahegee,
IT’LL  ALWAYS REMAIN,

meree  muhabbat jawaa.n rahegee,
MY LOVE WILL FOREVER STAY YOUNG,

sadaa rahee  hai,
IT’S ALWAYS REMAINED,

sadaa  rahegee,
IT’LL  ALWAYS REMAIN,

ta.Dap ta.Dap kar yahee kahegee,
TOSSING AND TURNING IT WILL REITERATE:

sadaa rahee  hai,
IT’S ALWAYS REMAINED,

sadaa  rahegee.
IT’LL  ALWAYS REMAIN!
