Young Rafi's early Nugget: Hai Kaam Mohabbat Kaa...

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


Hai kaam mohabbat ka...
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE...

Hai kaam mohabbat ka, fariyaad kiye jaana,
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE TO GO ON COMPLAINING,

Voh bhool bhee jaaye.n toh, unhe.n yaad kiye jaana,
EVEN IF SHE FORGETS, TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING,

Unhe.n yaad kiye jaanaa....
TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING...


Hai ek adaa unn kee, barbyaad kiye jaana,
ONE GESTURE OF HERS IS TO GO ON RUINING,

Hai ek adaa apnee, fariyaad kiye jaana,
ONE GESTURE OF OURS IS TO GO ON COMPLAINING,

Fariyaad kiye jaanaa, unhe.n yaad kiye jaana,
TO GO ON COMPLAINING, TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING,

Hai kaam mohabbat ka...
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE...

Hai kaam mohabbat ka, fariyaad kiye jaana,
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE TO GO ON COMPLAINING,

Voh bhool bhee jaaye.n toh, unhe.n yaad kiye jaana,
EVEN IF SHE FORGETS, TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING,

Unhe.n yaad kiye jaanaa....
TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING...


Manzoor huwaa un ko, gham deke bhulaa denaa,
TO FORGET AFTER HEAPING THE SORROW, SHE FINDS AGREEABLE,

Manzoor huwaa hamm ko, Iss gham ka mazaa lenaa,
TO ENJOY THIS SORROW, WE FIND AGREEABLE,

Unhe.n yaad kiye jaana, fariyaad kiye jaanaa,
TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING, TO KEEP ON COMPLAINING,

Hai kaam mohabbat ka...
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE...

Hai kaam mohabbat ka, fariyaad kiye jaana,
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE TO GO ON COMPLAINING,

Voh bhool bhee jaaye.n toh, unhe.n yaad kiye jaana,
EVEN IF SHE FORGETS, TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING,

Unhe.n yaad kiye jaanaa....
TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING...


Voh aa.nkh churaaye.n toh, ay dil naa gilaa karnaa,
IF SHE GLANCES FURTIVELY THEN, O HEART, DON’T WHINE,

Voh milne naa aaye.n toh, sapno.n me.n milaa karnaa,
IF SHE DOESN’T COME TO MEET YOU, THEN KEEP ON MEETING HER IN DREAMS,

Sapno.n me.n bhee tuu unn se, fariyaad kiye jaanaa,
KEEP ON COMPLAINING TO HER EVEN IN DREAMS,

Hai kaam mohabbat ka...
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE...

Hai kaam mohabbat ka, fariyaad kiye jaana,
‘TIS THE JOB OF LOVE TO GO ON COMPLAINING,

Voh bhool bhee jaaye.n toh, unhe.n yaad kiye jaana,
EVEN IF SHE FORGETS, TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING,

Unhe.n yaad kiye jaanaa....
TO KEEP HER REMEMBERING...

NASIR.

“Love is enough: though the world be a-waning, / And the woods have no voice but the voice of complaining.” William Morris quotes
