Tere mere jeevan kee, ek kahaanee
THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE AND MINE IS ONE,

Tere mere, jeevan kee, ek kahaanee,

LIKE THE EYES IN THE EYE-LIDS; THE TEARS IN THE EYES,

Tere mere jeevan kee, ek kahanee,
THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE AND MINE IS ONE,

Palko.n me.n nayn jaise, nayno.n me.n paanee,
THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE AND MINE IS ONE,

Chaahe jag chooTe naa TooTe, preet puraanee,
THE WORLD BE RELINQUISHED, BUT NOT THE OLD-STANDING LOVE,

Ho~~~ Gori, laakho.n janam se,
O FAIR ONE, SINCE MILLION REBIRTHS

Dor tere bandhan kee, uljhee hai hamse,
YOUR TYING OF THE KNOT IS INVOLVED WITH US,

Raam kare phir ho, hamraa milanwaa,
MAY RAM WILL THAT WE MEET AGAIN!

Raam kare, phir ho hamraa milanwaa...
MAY RAM WILL THAT WE MEET AGAIN!


Kaisaa naseeb ne yeh, khel rachaayaa
WHAT A GAME THE FATE HAS CONTRIVED!

Kaisaa, naseeb ne yeh, khel rachaayaa,
WHAT A GAME THE FATE HAS CONTRIVED!

Pyaar toh paaya teraa, sangg naa paayaa,
I GOT YOUR LOVE, NOT YOUR TOGETHERNESS,

Kaisaa naseeb ne yeh, khel rachaayaa,
WHAT A GAME THE FATE HAS CONTRIVED!

Pyaar toh paaya teraa, sangg naa paayaa,

‘TIS YOUR REFLECTION THAT NOW DWELLS AMONG THE TEARS,

O~~~~ Gori, laakho.n janam se,
O FAIR ONE, SINCE MILLION REBIRTHS

Dor tere bandhan kee, uljhee hai hamse,
YOUR TYING OF THE KNOT IS INVOLVED WITH US,

Raam kare phir ho, hamraa milanwaa,
MAY RAM WILL THAT WE MEET AGAIN!

Raam kare, phir ho hamraa milanwaa...
MAY RAM WILL THAT WE MEET AGAIN!

Ho~~~~ho~~~~~ho~~~~~

NASIR

Ye flowers that drop, forsaken by the spring,
Ye birds that, left by summer, cease to sing,
Ye trees that fade, when Autumn heats remove,
Say, is not absence death to those who love?
~Alexander Pope
