Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Urdu-Hindi Lyrics:
tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa,
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
meree jaan jisne paayaa,
WHOEVER FOUND IT MY SWEETHEART,
tere gesuuo.n, kaa saayaa,
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
meree jaan jisne paayaa,
WHOEVER FOUND IT MY SWEETHEART,
usse mil gayee khudaaee,
HE OBTAINED THE WORLD,
usse mil gayee khudaaee,
HE OBTAINED THE WORLD,
voh naseeb leke aayaa,
FORTUNATE IS HE,
tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa,
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
meree jaan jisne paayaa,
WHOEVER FOUND IT MY SWEETHEART,
usse mil gayee khudaaee,
HE OBTAINED THE WORLD,
voh naseeb leke aayaa,
FORTUNATE IS HE,
tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa....
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES...
is dil kee yeh khataa hai,
THE ERROR OF THE HEART IS THIS
ke yeh tujh pe mar miTaa hai,
THAT IT HAS ANNIHILATED ITSELF OVER YOU,
is dil kee yeh khataa hai,
THE ERROR OF THE HEART IS THIS
ke yeh tujh pe mar mitaa hai,
THAT IT HAS ANNIHILATED ITSELF OVER YOU,
ise kaise mai.n sambhaaloo.n,
HOW SHOULD I TAKE CARE OF IT,
ise kaise mai.n sambhaaloo.n,
HOW SHOULD I TAKE CARE OF IT,
yeh toh ho gayaa parayaa,
A STRANGER THAT IT'S BECOME,
Tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa,
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
meree jaan jisne paayaa,
WHOEVER FOUND IT MY SWEETHEART,
usse mil gayee khudaaee,
HE OBTAINED THE WORLD,
voh naseeb leke aayaa,
FORTUNATE IS HE,
tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa...
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
mere dil me.n dard bhar de,
FILL UP MY HEART WITH COMPASSION,
yaa jalaa ke khaak kar de,
OR BURN IT TO ASHES,
mere dil me.n dard bhar de,
FILL UP MY HEART WITH COMPASSION,
yaa jalaa ke khaak kar de,
OR BURN IT TO ASHES,
meree khaak bhee kahegee,
EVEN MY ASHES WILL SAY,
meree khaak bhee kahegee,
EVEN MY ASHES WILL SAY,
mujhe yaar ne mitaayaa,
MY FRIEND HAS DESTROYED ME,
tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa,
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
meree jaan jisne paayaa,
WHOEVER FOUND IT MY SWEETHEART,
usse mil gayee khudaaee,
HE OBTAINED THE WORLD,
voh naseeb leke aayaa,
FORTUNATE IS HE,
tere gesuuo.n kaa saayaa.
THE SHELTER OF YOUR TRESSES,
NASIR
Curl not thy locks to imprison me into your beauty
Prettify not thyself to add fuel to my insanity – Hafez.
