RAJA KO RANI SE
| CHORUS: | |
| raaja ko raanii se pyaar ho gayaa | The king fell in love with the queen; |
| pahalii nazar me.n pahala pyaar ho gaya | from the very first glance sprang his very first love. |
| dil jigar dono.n ghaayal hu'e | The hearts of both were wounded |
| tiir-e-nazar dil ke paar ho gaya | by an arrowed glance that breached the hearts' walls. |
| Chorus | |
| raaja ko raanii se pyaar ho gayaa... | The king fell in love with the queen... |
| raaho.n se raahe.n baaho.n se baahe.n milke bhii miltii nahii.n | Yet in finding the path, in discovering an embrace, neither their path nor their embrace is assured. |
| hota hai aksar armaan kii kaliyaa.n | This often happens; the buds of desire, |
| khilke bhii khiltii nahii.n | blossoming, do not flower. |
| phir bhii na jaane kyo.n nahii.n maane... | Even so, who knows why it did not obey... |
| diiwaana dil beqaraar ho gaya | the mad heart grew uncontrollably restless. |
| raaja ko raanii se pyaar ho gaya... | The king fell in love with the queen; |
| raanii ko dekho nazare.n milii to | Look at the queen; meeting her gaze, |
| aa.nkhe.n churaane lagii | she hid her eyes (for shame). |
| kartii bhii kya voh sar ko jhukaake | What else could she do; bowing her head, |
| ka.ngana ghumaane lagii | her bangles began to twirl. |
| raaja ne aisa jaaduu chalaaya... | Such was the spell that the king cast... |
| na karte karte ikaraar ho gaya | even as she demurred, she consented. |
| Chorus |
DIL KEHTA HAI
| CHORUS: | |
| dil kahata hai chal un se mil | My heart says, go, meet him! |
| uTHte hai.n qadam ruk jaate hai.n | I take a step; I falter to a stop. |
| dil ham ko kabhii samjhaata hai | Sometimes my heart reasons with me; |
| ham dil ko kabhii samjhaate hai.n | sometimes I reason with my heart. |
| Chorus | |
| ham jab se hai.n judaa ae mere ham nashiin | How long we've been separated, my beloved! |
| yuu.n dekho to mere daaman me.n kya nahii.n | You look at me so and my intentions are as nothing. (?) |
| daulat ka chaa.nd hai shoharat kii chaa.ndanii | The moon's wealth lies in the moonlight's fame. |
| magar tumhe.n khoke lage hai mujhe aisa | But since losing you it has seemed to me that |
| ki tum nahii.n to kuchh bhii nahii.n | if you're not here, there's nothing else (to life). |

| tum hii tum hai sanam mere din raat me.n | In you, beloved, and you alone, are my day and night. |
| par itnii bula.ndii pe tum ho merii jaan | But you are so far above me, my dearest darling. |
| aa'e na daaman ab haath me.n | Now there is nothing binding us; |
| paana tumko mumkin hii nahii.n | it's not possible to get you back. |
| soche bhii to ham ghabaraate hai.n | Even thinking about it, I fret. |
| dil ham ko kabhii samjhaata hai | Sometimes my heart reasons with me; |
| ham dil ko kabhii samjhaate hai.n | sometimes I reason with my heart. |
| dil kahata hai chal unse mil | My heart says, go, meet him! |
| uTHte hai.n qadam ruk jaate hai.n... | I take a step; I falter to a stop. |
