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


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte…
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE…


aatee hai majnoo.n kee sadaa,
THE VOICE OF MAJNU RESOUNDS


ab tak yahee veeraano.n se,
THUS FROM THE WILDERNESS STILL,


jeene kee, baate.n naa karo,
DON’T SPEAK OF LIFE


hamm ishq ke deewaano.n se,
WITH LOVE-CRAZY PEOPLE LIKE US,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte…
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE…


ishq me.n marnaa kyaa hai,
WHAT IS IT LIKE TO DIE IN LOVE?


kisee barbaad se poochhe koee,
LET SOMEONE ASK THIS OF AN OVERWHELMED PERSON!


sar dene se yaar milaa,
WITH SACRIFICE, BELOVED WAS FOUND!


farhaad se poochhe koee,
LET SOMEONE ASK FARHAD!


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte…
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE…


jaan gawaa.n kar ulfat me.n,
BY LOSING LIFE IN LOVE...


jaan gawaa.n kar ulfat me.n,
BY LOSING LIFE IN LOVE,


marte nahee.n marne waale,
THE DEAD DON’T DIE!


yaad rahe.nge duniya ko,
THE WORLD WILL REMEMBER


hamm jee se guzarne waale,
US WHO GAVE UP LIFE!


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,


jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa
THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE,

jinne, sabaq mohabbat waalaa seekhaa

THOSE WHO’VE LEARNT THE LESSON OF LOVE,


voh marne se, nahee.n Darte…
THEY AREN’T AFRAID TO DIE…
