MERE YAAR KI SHAADI HAI - THE LYRICS



EK LADKI

CHORUS:
ek laRkii kii tumhe.n kya sunaa'uu.n daastaan... Shall I tell you the story of a girl?
woh pagalii hai sabse juRaa She's insane, different from everyone else.
har pal na'ii uskii adaa Every moment (you discover) a new charm (about her).
phuul barse log tarse jaa'e voh laRkii jahaa.n Wherever the girl goes, flowers rain down and people yearn for her.
Chorus
ek laRkii kii tumhe.n kya sunaa'uu.n daastaan... Shall I tell you the story of a girl?
hai khafaa to khafaa phir khud hii voh maan bhii jaatii hai When she's mad, she's mad! but then she'll find something to be happy about;
laatii hai hotho.n par muskaan voh a smile comes to her lips.
chup hai to chup hai voh When she's quiet, she's quiet;
phir khud hii voh gungunaatii hai gaatii hai miiTHii miiTHii taan voh but then she'll start singing softly to herself; she sings such a sweet, sweet melody.
kaise kahuu.n kaisii hai voh bas apne hii jaisii hai voh How can I explain what she's like? She's utterly unique.
phuul barse log tarse jaa'e voh laRkii jahaa.n Wherever the girl goes, flowers rain down and people long for her.
ek laRkii kii tumhe.n kya sunaa'uu.n daastaan... Shall I tell you the story of a girl...
aajkal har voh pal biita jo tha uske saath me.n Lately, each and every moment that I passed with her —
kya kahuu.n khwaabo.n me.n aataa hai kyo.n what can I say? why does each moment come to me in my dreams?
yaad jo aa'e to use bichhaRne kii voh ghaRii The memory of that moment of parting from her —
kya kahuu.n dil TuuT-saa jaata hai kyo.n what can I say? why does it break my heart?
ab mai.n kahii.n voh hai kahii.n par hai a'e hamnashiin Now we're lost to each other, but I'm fixated on her.
phuul barse log tarse jaa'e voh laRkii jahaa.n Wherever the girl goes, flowers rain down and people long for her.
Chorus
ek laRkii kii tumhe.n kya sunaa'o daastaan... Shall I tell you the story of a girl?
 

 SHARARA

aag lagaake dilo.n ko jalaake karuu.n mai.n ishaaraa setting hearts on fire, I'll burn them up with a look
sharaaraa...mai.n huu.n ek sharaara... I'm a spark
shola hai yeh tan mera are dekho tum paas na aana This body of mine is a flame; careful, don't come too close!
shamaa ke jo paas aaya are jalta hai vohii parvaana Moths are burnt up that come too close to the flame.
o mere diiwaano.n baat ko samjho duur se dekho mera yeh nazaara My lovers, heed what I say: behold my spectacle from afar!
sharaaraa...mai.n huu.n ek sharaara... I'm a spark
bijalii banke girtii huu.n Becoming lightning, I strike.
mai.n naagin banke Dastii huu.n Becoming a snake, I bite.
chhiine hosh jo sabke mai.n hii to aisii mastii huu.n I'm the sort of pleasure that leaves you unconscious.
ra.ng jhalka duu.n saa.ns mahakaa duu.n I'll bring out your true colors; I'll perfume your breath.
pal me.n jaDka duu.n mai.n yeh dil tumhaaraa In one moment, I'll leave this heart of yours senseless.
sharaaraa...mai.n huu.n ek sharaara... I'm a spark
laharaake balkhaake... Twisting, turning...
aag lagaake dilo.n ko jalaake karuu.n mai.n ishaaraa setting hearts on fire, I'll burn them up with a look
sharaaraa...mai.n huu.n ek sharaara... I'm a spark...

JAAGE JAAGE

resham sii hai ye havaa'e.n sanam These breezes are like silk, darling.

CHORUS:
resham sii hai ye havaa'e.n sanam These breezes are like silk, darling.
aa'o zara paas aa'e sanam Come just a little closer, darling.
jaage jaage armaan hai.n jaage jaage ham... My desires have awakened; they keep me awake...
ho jaane do ab faasale kuchh to kam Now let the distance between us lessen.
jaage jaage armaan hai.n jaage jaage ham... My desires have awakened; they keep me awake...
Chorus
a.ngaRaa'ii leke havaa'e.n chalii The breezes twist and sweep over us,
to kyo.n na khushbuu bikhere kalii so why does the scent of flowerbuds not spread?
khushbuu havaa'o.n me.n kaise bhare kaliyaa.n hai sharmaatii How could perfume fill the breeze? The flowerbuds are shy!
ha'e kya kare Oh, what to do?
kya pataa hai yeh kya sharam hai yaa sazaa Who knows if this is shyness, or punishment!
kyo.n hai betaabiyaa.n i.ntazaar ek zaraa Why such impatience when the wait is so small?
ek pal kii bhii duurii to ab hai sitam Just one moment of separation is agony now.
jaage jaage armaan hai jaage jaage ham... My desires awaken; they keep me awake...
chup rahana chaaha tha rah na sake I wanted to keep quiet, but I couldn't;
phir bhii jo kahana tha kah na sake even so, I couldn't say what I needed to.
tum mujhse kuchh bhii kaho na kaho Say anything at all to me; or don't —
aise to kho'e hu'e na raho but don't stay lost like this!
ab to jo ho so ho baat dil kii suno Now whatever happens, happens; listen to my heart's speech.
kahatii hai dhaRkane.n kah bhii do kah bhii do My heartbeats tell (you) to say anything, anything at all!
tumhaare hai.n ham tumhaarii qasam I'm yours; I swear by you!
jaage jaage armaan hai jaage jaage ham... My desires awaken; they keep me awake...
Chorus
jaage jaage... Awakening, waking...
