84. Translation of Rafi Song: Hai Duniya Ussi Ki....


From: Kashmir Ki Kali (1964)
Music: O.P. Nayyar.
Lyrics: S.H. Bihari.


Flaubert said: Love is a springtime plant that perfumes everything with its hope, even the ruines to which it clings.

Romantic Rafi touching the chords of our heart singing just that: Hai Duniya Usi Ki.....



Hai Duniya Usi Ki, Zamaana Usi Ka
HIS IS THE WORLD, THE ERA IS HIS

Mohabbat Mein Jo Ho Gaya Ho Kisi Ka.
WHO HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF IN LOVE TO SOMEONE

Hai Duniya Usi Ki, Zamaana Usi Ka
HIS IS THE WORLD, THE ERA IS HIS

Mohabbat Mein Jo Ho Gaya Ho Kisi Ka.
WHO HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF IN LOVE TO SOMEONE


Loota Jo Musafir, Dil Ke Safar Mein,
THE TRAVELLER WHO’S WAYLAID ON LOVE’S PATH,

Hai Jannat Yeh Duniya Us Ki Nazar Mein.
PARADISE IS THIS WORLD IN HIS VIEW,

Loota Jo Musafir, Dil Ke Safar Mein,
THE TRAVELLER WHO’S WAYLAID ON LOVE’S PATH,

Hai Jannat Yeh Duniya Us Ki Nazar Mein
PARADISE IS THIS WORLD IN HIS VIEW,

Usi Ne Hai Loota Mazaa Zindagi Ka,
HE ALONE HAS LOOTED THE PLEASURE OF LIFE

Mohabbat Mein Jo Ho Gaya Ho Kisi Ka.
WHO HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF IN LOVE TO SOMEONE


Hai Sajde Ke Qaabil Har Woh Deewana,
WORTHY OF PROSTRATION IS EVERY SUCH LUNATIC

Ke Jo Ban Gaya Ho Tasveer-e-Jaana,
WHO’S BECOME AN ICON OF HIS BELOVED,

Hai Sajde Ke Qaabil Har Woh Deewana,
WORTHY OF PROSTRATION IS EVERY SUCH LUNATIC

Ke Jo Ban Gaya Ho Tasveer-e-Jaana,
WHO’S BECOME AN ICON OF HIS BELOVED,

Karo Ahataraam Us Ki Deewanagi Ka,
GIVE DEFERENCE TO HIS CRAZINESS,

Mohabbat Mein Jo Ho Gaya Ho Kisi Ka.
WHO HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF IN LOVE TO SOMEONE.


Barbaad Hona, Jis Ki Adaa Ho,
BEING RUINED FOR WHOM IS AN ACT OF GRACE

Dard-e-Mohabbat Jis Ki Dawa Ho,
THE LOVE PANG FOR WHOM IS BUT A REMEDY,

Barbaad Hona, Jis Ki Adaa Ho,
BEING RUINED FOR WHOM IS AN ACT OF GRACE

Dard-e-Mohabbat Jis Ki Dawa Ho,
THE LOVE PANG FOR WHOM IS BUT A REMEDY,

Satayegaa Kya Gham, Usse Zindagi Ka,
HOW WILL THE WORLDLY INFLICTIONS WORRY HIM!

Mohabbat Mein Jo Ho Gaya Ho Kisi Ka
WHO HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF IN LOVE TO SOMEONE.

Hai Duniya Usi Ki, Zamaana Usi Ka
HIS IS THE WORLD, THE ERA IS HIS

Mohabbat Mein Jo Ho Gaya Ho Kisi Ka.
WHO HAS SURRENDERED HIMSELF IN LOVE TO SOMEONE............

  7. Thank you. A song I heard when I was just a 10 year old. Never bothered about lyrics at that age. Now as I chanced to sing along with YouTube, I realised I have to know the right lyrics with meaning. Search landed me here. Thank you Nasir
