KUCH NA KAHO - THE LYRICS

KUCH NA KAHO - THE LYRICS


KUCH NA KAHO

halkii halkii mulaaqaate.n thii.n We met casually;
duur duur se baate.n thii.n we spoke from afar.
halkii halkii mulaaqaate.n thii.n We met casually;
duur duur se baate.n thii.n we spoke from afar.
dhiire dhiire kya ho gaya hai mai.n kya kahuu.n But gradually, what happened? What shall I tell you?
kyo.n laRkhaRaa'e dhaRkan Why my heartbeat stumbles?
kyo.n thartharaa'e.n tan man Why my body and soul quiver?
kyo.n hosh mera kho gaya hai mai.n kya kahuu.n Why I've lost my wits? What shall I tell you?
kyo.n laRkhaRaa'e dhaRkan Why my heartbeat stumbles?
kyo.n thartharaa'e.n tan man Why my body and soul quiver?
kyo.n hosh mera kho gaya hai mai.n kya kahuu.n Why I've lost my wits? What shall I tell you?
kuchh naa kaho... Don't say anything...
sab mere din sab raate.n All my days, all my nights,
tumhaare khayaalo.n me.n rahate hai.n gum I spent lost in thoughts of you.
kahanii hai tumse jo baate.n The things which I must tell you,
baiTHo zaraa ab sun bhii lo tum just take a seat and listen to them now.
kya mere khwaab hai kya hai merii aarzuu What my dream is, what my desire is —
tumse yeh daastaan kyo.n na kahuu.n ruubaruu why shouldn't I tell this tale in your presence?
kuchh naa kaho... Don't tell me anything...
jazbaat jitne hai.n dil me.n How many feelings there are in my heart!
mere hii jaise hai.n vo bezubaan Like me, they lack the words.
jo tumse mai.n kah na paa'ii What I can't manage to tell you
kahatii hai voh merii khaamoshiyaa.n is spoken by my silence.
sun sako to suno voh jo mai.n ne kahaa nahii.n If you can hear it, then listen to it, this thing I never said to you.
sach to hai kahane ko ab kuchh rahaa nahii.n It's the truth; nothing now remains to be said.
kuchh naa kaho... Don't say anything...
halkii halkii mulaaqaate.n thii.n We met casually;
duur duur se baate.n thii.n we spoke from afar.
dhiire dhiire kya ho gaya hai mai.n kya kahuu.n But oh so gradually, what happened? What shall I tell you?
kyo.n laRkhaRaa'e dhaRkan Why my heartbeat stumbles?
kyo.n thartharaa'e.n tan man Why my body and soul quiver?
kyo.n hosh mera kho gaya hai mai.n kya kahuu.n Why I've lost my wits? What shall I tell you?
kuchh naa kaho... Don't say anything...

to isme.n kya hu'aa what would be wrong with it?
kyo.n na ho garuur hamko kyo.n na ham ko naaz ho ki Why shouldn't we be vain? Why shouldn't we be proud that
ham hasiin logo.n kii hii THokaro.n me.n hai zamaana we beautiful people have got the world at our feet?
jisko dekhi'e hamaara hai diiwaana Whoever looks at us goes mad for us.
ham kisii ka bhii dil toR de.n We could break anyone's heart;
kisko aadhe raaste me.n choR de.n we could leave anyone halfway down the road.
to usko bhii duniya kahatii hai adaa That's what the world calls "style."
aapko jawaab mil gaya You've got your answer.
kahi'e kaisa aapko lagaa Tell me, how do you like it?
baat merii suni'e to zara At least listen to what I'm saying.
aaj sun hii liiji'e ki kya hai husn aapka Today, please just listen to what your beauty is,

hamne hii to zara sii baat ko baRHaake daastaan kar diya We alone make every little thing into a grand story.
hamne hii to husn kii zamiin ko aasmaan kar diya hai We alone make the world of beauty into a heaven.
duniya me.n jo aapka yeh husn bemisaal hai This peerless beauty of yours,
agar ham hii na hote isko kaun puuchhta if it weren't for us, who would take notice of it?
aapko agar khayaal hai... If you've got the idea...
ki ham husn jo mila hai aapne diya hai that the beauty we've got was given to us by you,
yaani jo bhii hai kamaal aapne kiya hai meaning, that anything miraculous is your doing,
to yeh baat saaf hai ki hamko dekhte hii then it's clear that the sight of us
aapko nashaa sa ho gaya hai has made you drunk.
saara hosh kho gaya hai You've lost your wits.
warna aisii ulTii-siidhii bahakii bahakii baato.n kii vajah hai kya Otherwise, what's the reason for such incoherent raving?
nahii.n samajh me.n aa'ii merii baat to nahii.n sahii Oh, so if you don't understand what I'm saying, then it's wrong?
jo aap apne husn par garuur karte hai Go ahead and be proud of your beauty,
to kari'e par na bhuul jaa'ega but don't forget:
hamne hii to khuun-e-dil diya We've spilt my heart's blood for it.
jisse ruup me.n yeh ra.ng aa gaya hai The form which this loveliness took,
aapka yeh husn duniya bhar pe chhaa gaya hai this beauty of yours which overtook the whole world,
jaaduu banke ham nigaaho.n par chhaa gaye we made it into the magic which enspelled everyone's gaze.
dilo.n me.n jo samaa gaya hai to hairat isme.n kya hai If it settled into everyone's hearts, what's so amazing about that?
chehara phuul ho.nTH kaliyaa A flower for a face, rosebud lips,
aur zulfe.n hai a.ndhera aisa jo mahak rahaa hai and locks of hair like the scented darkness!
hamne hii to aapke in ho.nTHo.n ko gulaab aur chehare ko kamal kahaa hai We're the ones who call your lips roses, your face a lotus,
hamne hii to aapkii nazar ko jaaduu and your glance magic.
baato.n ko gazal kahaa hai hamne hii We're the ones who call your words poetry.
zulf ko kabhii kahaa hai raat aur kabhii ghaTa Sometimes we compare your hair to the night, and sometimes to a cloud.
agar hamii na dekhte na chaahate na puuchhte If we hadn't seen you, and desired you, and realized your potential...
to pattharo.n ki buuT ko kaun kahata phir khuda Then which would God have called stones, and which flowers?
baat merii suni'e to zara Just listen to what I'm saying.
chhoRi'e bhii kahane aur sunne ko hai baaqii kya Leave off with this telling and listening; is there anything left?
dekhi'e mai.n kah rahii huu.n baat merii suni'e to zara Look, I'm speaking here; just listen to what I'm saying.
aap kya kahe.ngii mujhko khuub hai pataa I know exactly what you're going to say.
are baat merii suni'e to zara Oh, just listen to what I've got to say!
phir mile.nge agar waqt agar mila We'll meet again, if I find the time.
par baat merii But I've got something to say!
