TRANSLATED BY NASIR ALI

Translator’s Notes:  (1) “maang” literally refers to the parting of hair especially from the centre of the forehead.

(2) “maang bharnaa” = to apply the parting with vermillion, etc., to marry a woman. 

(3) *I have alternately translated “maang” as a synecdoche to represent it as “beloved”.

maiN raahee hooN albela, 
I’M A SPORTIVE WAYFARER, 

aur pyaasaa hooN deedaar kaa 
AND CRAVING FOR THE SIGHT!

mujhe apnaa yaar banaa lo, phir ho jaaooN sansaar kaa,
BEFRIEND ME, THEN I’LL BEFRIEND THE WORLD,

Arre aazmaa ke dekho, dil kaisaa hai dil-daar kaa… 
HEY, TRY ME AND SEE HOW GENEROUS IS THE SWEETHEART!

maiN kyaa karooN ke zaalim, 
WHAT AM I TO DO, O SWEET OPPRESSOR!

soorat hee aisee paayee, 
I HAVE SUCH A FACE!  

dil meraa Aainaa hai,
MY HEART’S A MIRROR, 

dil meN naheeN buraayee, 
THE HEART NURTURES NO EVIL! 

mere dil ko dil meN lelo,
PUT YOUR HEART INTO MINE,

hai heeraa aitbaar kaa
‘TIS A RELIABLE DIAMOND! 

mujhe apnaa yaar banaa lo, phir ho jaaooN sansaar kaa,
BEFRIEND ME, THEN I’LL BEFRIEND THE WORLD,

Arre aazmaa ke dekho, dil kaisaa hai dil-daar kaa…
HEY,  TRY ME AND SEE HOW GENEROUS IS THE SWEETHEART!

duniyaa kee waadiyoN meN,
IN THE VALLEY OF THE WORLD

bin yaar kaise jeenaa,
HOW ONE’S TO LIVE WITHOUT A FRIEND!

dariyaa bhee soonaa soonaa,
EVEN THE RIVER IS LONELY

jab tak naa ho safeenaa, 
UNLESS THERE’S A SHIP!

duniyaa kee waadiyoN meN,
IN THE VALLEY OF THE WORLD

bin yaar kaise jeenaa,
HOW ONE’S TO LIVE WITHOUT A FRIEND!

dariyaa bhee soonaa soonaa,
EVEN THE RIVER IS LONELY

jab tak naa ho safeenaa, 
UNLESS THERE’S A SHIP!

Arre sun lo duniya waaloN,
HEAR YE O WORLDLINGS

yeh naGhmaa dil ke taar kaa, 
THIS SONG OF THE HEART’S STRING!

mujhe apnaa yaar banaa lo, phir ho jaaooN sansaar kaa,
BEFRIEND ME, THEN I’LL BEFRIEND THE WORLD,

Arre aazmaa ke dekho, dil kaisaa hai dil-daar kaa 
HEY,  TRY ME AND SEE HOW GENEROUS IS THE SWEETHEART!

mujhe apnaa yaar banaa lo, phir ho jaaooN sansaar kaa.
BEFRIEND ME, THEN I’LL BEFRIEND THE WORLD!
