305. Translation of Sad Songs of Rafi: Kaise Jeet Lete Hain....


Movie: Saajan Bina Suhagan (1978)
Music: Usha Khanna
Lyrics: Indeevar

When romance betrays the sadness of unsatiated desires, and the inability to win a loving heart, Rafi Sahaab sings: Kaise Jeet Lete Hain Log Dil Kisee Kaa....

Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Urdu/Hindi Lyrics:


Hmmm.....

kaise jeet lete hai.n, log dil kisee kaa...,
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa,
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa,
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

koyee toh sikhaa de hame.n, pyaar kaa saleekaa,
WILL SOMEONE TEACH ME THE LOVE’S SKILL?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa...
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?


koyee mehboobaa, hamm ko chaahe,
O THAT SOME BELOVED SHOULD DESIRE US,

pyaar ke waade, kar ke nibaahe,
MAKE PROMISES OF LOVE, FULFILLING THEM,

aankhon me.n yeh KHwaab liye hamm,
WITH THIS DREAM IN MY EYES,

saare jahaan me.n bhaTkaa kiye hamm,
I WANDERED ALL OVER THE WORLD,

haay re dil kee, kamnaseebee,
ALAS! THE UNFORTUNATE HEART!

hamko dil milaa na kisee, roop kee kalee kaa,
NO BUDDING BEAUTY GAVE ME HER HEART!

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa,
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa,
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

koyee toh sikhaa de hame.n, pyaar kaa saleekaa,
WILL SOMEONE TEACH ME THE LOVE’S SKILL?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa ...
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?


hamne naa dekhaa, zulfo.n kaa saawan,
NO LUSH, DARK TRESSES, DID I SEE,

hamne na thaamaa, koyee daaman,
TO NO SKIRT, DID I CLING,

le ke chale koyee hamm ko wahaa.n par,
LET SOMEONE TAKE ME TO THE PLACE WHERE

rehte hai.n dildaar jahaa.n par,
THE CHARMERS RESIDE,

haay re dil kee, kam-naseebee,
ALAS! THE UNFORTUNATE HEART!

hamm ko toh milaa na pataa, yaar kee galee kaa,
NO ADDRESS OF THE FRIEND’S LANE DID I FIND!


kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa,
HOW DO  PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa,
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?

koyee toh sikhaa de hame.n, pyaar kaa saleekaa,
WILL SOMEONE TEACH ME THE LOVE’S SKILL?

kaise jeet lete hai.n log dil kisee kaa.
HOW DO PEOPLE WIN SOMEONE’S HEART?
