Who am I to you?...
My gaze is restless
What an effect love has on me!
Don't stay quiet; tell me at least this much:
Who am I... who am I to you
So many times I stopped myself, beloved
but at last, I had to speak
Why do you enter my dreams?
Who am I... who am I to you
My gaze is restless
What an effect love has on me!
It is a constant worry; don't ask me
who I am... who I am to you
How shall I tell you of my heart's desire?
Read my face sometime
The blush on my face may tell you
who I am...who I am to you

Since I first saw you,
my heart has been lost (in thoughts of you).
What is that my heart now says, so quietly, with its every beat?
   

I've begun to fall in love;
I've begun to lose my heart.
I've begun to fall in love;
I've begun to lose my heart.
    
What people have started to say...in such talk, my heart grows anxious.
What's really the truth here? Will you tell me?
Who am I, in the end?
How long will I hide it?
Hide a hundred thousand things from me;
I still know everything.
On every tongue tomorrow
will be the tale of our romance.

Without you, what is life? What is there to live for?
Without you, what is life?
How can my life go on without you?
How can I go on living without you?
The nights are longer than centuries;
the days pass more slowly than millenia.
Come back to me! my heart is calling.
In the evenings, loneliness wakes (in me).
I'm missing you;
I feel like I'm dying;
you are tormenting me.
In this heart memories of you clamor.
How lonely I am without you!
Come back to me! my heart is calling.
The things I'd imagined for us!
The dreams I'd embroidered!
The many things my heart hoped for!
The desires that stirred in me...
Storms pass through this heart of mine;
without you, I manage to neither live nor die.
Come back to me! my heart is calling.
How can my life go on without you?
How can I go on living without you?
The nights are longer than centuries;
the days pass more slowly than millenia.
Come back to me! my heart is calling.

This is the agony of love...
   

You've come into my life; don't go!
Don't go off somewhere, don't go!
  

What have I gained?
What have I lost?
Maybe these very thoughts have made my heart weep today.
You were my very own;
so why did this dream shatter?
You who I've loved — if I lose you,
living will become nearly impossible.

This is the agony of love...
These are the paths of love
down which I am walking.
Who knows how long I've been burning in this fire.
I'm mad for you;
you didn't even recognize it.
My love, don't do such a thing,
don't disgrace (yourself) in love.

This is the agony of love...

The short nights grow long...
Sitting like this, sleep escapes you.
In the heart, restlessness, and in the eyes, longing,
when someone falls in love with someone.
The short nights grow long...
I'm in a state akin to insanity.
Don't ask me what my desires are.
I've taken hold of your arms;
in these arms is my heaven.
Like a flower, this heart has bloomed and grown fragrant.
Touching you, this heart has become unsteady.
What is it about a heart that makes it yearn at every moment,
when someone falls in love with someone?
The short nights grow long.
This heart becomes a bird and soars
when I meet the object of my dreams.
Dreams are just dreams;
this is true. When do you become mine?
Even when awake, the eyes continue to behold dreams,
when it seems to a heart that someone is its own.
One has neither control over his heart, nor power over himself,
when he falls in love with someone.
The short nights grow long...
Sitting like this, you lose sleep,
restlessness in your heart, longing in your eyes,
when someone falls in love with someone.

Looking at you, I lost my heart.
   

Looking at you, I lost my heart.
I lost my heart when I fell in love with you.
But how long will I keep this love hidden from you?
  

Looking at you, I lost my heart.
That day you find out,
you'll be so angry with me.
You'll break this heart of mine.
You'll break your own as well.
I didn't have any control over my heart;
conversations with you worked like magic on me,
and this heart became yours.

Looking at you, I lost my heart.
My heartbeat stumbled,
and dreams bloomed in my eyes.
This heart began to fall to you; [lit.: come to you]
the chain of events was set in motion.
Sometimes one returns again,
yes, down the road of love.
This heart, it just went (without my permission).

From you I learned what some love is like.
What are customs, what are relationships.
Love, I even swear by you,
whatever punishment you give me, I'll carry on our love.
You made me realize;
you made me have a realization that changed my life utterly.
You came into my life and changed it utterly.
You changed life utterly.

I can't bear it now; I can't stay apart from you for a day,
without you


This business of love is very strange, my friend; it births a thousand questions.
Sometimes it shows you dreams, and sometimes it stirs pain.
It increases your difficulties, but it also shows you paradise.
Where to go so far from heaven?
Where to go?

Without longing, what's love? Without meeting your beloved, what's life?
Love seduces you, but it also torments you terribly.
Sometimes it brings intimacy; other times, estrangement.
Erase these distances!
These distances...

Love me, consent to me, declare yourself, refuse;
whatever punishment you wish to give me, it's a pleasure to surrender my heart to you.
Love me, consent to me, declare yourself, refuse;
whatever punishment you wish to give me, it's a pleasure to surrender my heart to you.
It's a pleasure to give my heart to you.
Love me, consent to me, declare yourself, refuse;
whatever punishment you wish to give me, it's a pleasure to surrender my heart to you.
It's a pleasure to give my heart to you.
When it seems that some heart is dearer than life,
it's not acceptable for him to spurn you.
Love compels you; this is the heart's trade, my friend...
This game of hearts is strange, friend; sometimes, even in victory there is defeat.
Whether victory or defeat, barrier or breakthrough,
whatever punishment you wish to give me, it's a pleasure to surrender my heart to you.
I've started to believe; I've fallen in love.
It's the first time I've considered someone as my own.
I must have her now, the one my heart has longed for.
Who is won and who is lost? Who can know anyone's fortune?
Whatever destiny may hold, may my love be near me!
Whatever punishment you wish to give me, it's a pleasure to surrender my heart to you.
It's a pleasure to give my heart to you.
Love me, consent to me, declare yourself, refuse;
whatever punishment you wish to give me, it's a pleasure to surrender my heart to you.
It's a pleasure to give my heart to you.

If there's anyone like you in another land, I'll complain to God.
If some stranger turned his face toward yours, it would be a disaster.
You came into my life,
came into my life and changed it utterly.
You kept faith with love so well, you changed life utterly.
Now I can't bear to think there might be someone else who'd devote himself to you like I would.
Forget touching; even the thought of someone mentioning you is unacceptable to me.
You erased the distances;
You erased the distances and changed life utterly.
You came into my life and changed it utterly.
If even a mirror should behold you, my heart will tell me to break it.
You're my obsession; you're my heart's content;
I'm mad for you, no matter what anyone might say.
You heightened my madness;
You heightened my madness and changed life utterly.
You changed life utterly.

My heart took faith, and I fell in love with you.
Since I've met you, darling,
I've understood what it is to be in love.


Since I've met you, darling,
I've understood what it is to be in love.
Your every way made me crazy for you;
my heart took faith, and I fell in love with you.


The heart didn't give me a chance; don't even know when love happened.
You came to me like destiny; may no misfortune befall our love!

Take my heart away, foreigner, take it away!
You're peace, you're comfort; you're the only desire of this heart.
You're my dawn and dusk; you're my touchstone in this world.

Don't think anything at all; just be happy and speak.

The one who must come will come; he won't stop nor will he be stopped.

The heart has gone mad; it has swayed and danced as though intoxicated.

Who knows what all we must do, what an uproar we're going to create.

The heart has gone mad; it has swayed and danced as though intoxicated.

Who knows what all we must do, what an uproar we're going to create.

Why should we think about tomorrow?
Come, let's just live in the present.
When God is one for everyone,
then we, having become one, will all sing.

A true life only belongs to he who lives and lets live.
We've come into this world, so let's take what pleasure from it we can.
A true life only belongs to he who lives and lets live.
We've come into this world, so let's take what pleasure from it we can.
If there are walls in our hearts, then let's topple them.
Come, let's go to our god and beseech him lovingly.
The heart has gone mad; it has swayed and danced as though intoxicated.

Who knows what all we must do, what an uproar we're going to create.

Why should we think about tomorrow?
Come, let's just live in the present.
When God is one for everyone,
then we, having become one, will all sing.

No matter what happens, let's always smile.
May there be desire in our hearts, and in pleasure may we dance and sing.
Joining hands, let's touch the sky.
Let us embroider our desires with the moon and stars.

A true life only belongs to he who lives and lets live.
If there are walls in our hearts, then let's topple them.
No matter what happens, let's always smile.
Joining hands, let's touch the sky.
The heart has gone mad; it has swayed and danced as though intoxicated.
Who knows what all we must do, what an uproar we're going to create.
The heart has gone mad; it has swayed and danced as though intoxicated.
Who knows what all we must do, what an uproar we're going to create.

Silent and still,
frozen, lost in thought,
silent and still, lost in secret thought,
You've gone utterly still; your lips are silent.
Your commotion has died down; you sit silently,
but your lovely, lovely face has betrayed you.
Your eyes have beheld some lovely dream.
Don't shy away from us, beautiful girl; speak to us a little.
  

What can I say? My glance met with a stranger,
and it was as if love's patterns were set into motion.
New desires bloomed in my heart such as I've never known.
We've never met each other; how our hearts met, I cannot know.
What should I do now? What name should I take, how should I call out to him?
  

At first glance, somehow we both become lost.
From our gazes, the patter of love's first rainfall showers down.
I grow bashful and lower my eyes.
A mischievious breeze plays havoc with me also;
it makes my scarf fly up as it flows, and in my heart a storm arises.
Simply standing still, I was plundered, looted.

Silent, lost in secretive thought,
you've gone utterly still; your lips are silent.
Your commotion has died down; you sit silently,
but your lovely, lovely face has betrayed you.
Your eyes have beheld some lovely dream.
Don't shy away from us, beautiful girl; speak to us a little.
These lips begged for a melody; it is you and your love.
That which these eyes have ceaselessly searched for is you and your love.
Even in a crowd, my heart feels lonely, as though
it fears that it might lose you.
Today I found such happiness that the very world sways and swells.
When I found you, I found life.

What can I say? My glance met with a stranger,
and it was as if love's patterns were set into motion.
What can I say?

Beloved enemy, how very cold-hearted!
Beloved enemy, so unfeeling; you can't know my heartache!
Cold-blooded exactor of debts, I appeal to God above!
How can I tell, whom should I tell, O God,
no one knows the pain in my heart!
No one knows...
Beloved enemy, how cold-hearted!
You who were distant are near now;
now you are near, why do you stay so far away?
Who knows...
You who were distant are near now;
now you are near, why do you stay so far away?
Come near, come; put this bangle on me
Don't torment me; heed what I have to say.
How shall I tell, whom shall I tell, God, the bangle doesn't obey;
it doesn't obey.
This bangle is so unfeeling...
The bangle doesn't obey; fickle unfeeling wretch, oh God!
Now stop sulking, won't you? No, no, no!
Come to me! Yes, yes, yes!
I'm slowly falling for your pretty words
The firefly told me, such is this lover of yours!
Your love will steal you away, yes!
Even the moonlight is laughing at your lover's talk.
The stars begin to smile and the wind to sing; the sky reels!
How can I tell, whom should I tell, O God!
Crazy one doesn't even know that much!

Whose footstep is this?
Whose shadow is this?
There was a knock at my heart;
who entered here?
Who spread this vibrant color over me?
I died from happiness, my happiness killed me
It killed me...
Who spread this vibrant color over me?
I died from happiness;
it killed me...
God, it killed me...
The moon did not decorate my palm,
nor did I contract any relationship with the stars.
Nor did I make any complaint of God...
I hid every sorrow;
with laughter I bore each injustice.
I even embraced thorns,
and was wounded by flowers.
Yes, but when I raised my hands in prayer,
I begged God for you!
God, I begged for you!
Who spread this vibrant color over me?
I died from happiness;
it killed me...
God, it killed me...
killed me...
Whose footstep is this?
Whose shadow is this?
There was a knock at my heart;
who entered here?

The weather stretches its limbs
Rain ripples and spreads
A gust of wind will come and this light will be extinguished.
I haven't let (the lamp of) our love be extinguished.
O beloved, this lamp hasn't been put out, nor will it be.
The lamp of my desire!
My beloved, come to me now, my love...
With this lamp, every inch of my body is burning
Come to me now, lover;
O my love, come to me now, beloved!
There was distance (between us), a remoteness...
There was distance (between us), a remoteness, a world of separation;
my eyes were fixed in wait for you.
And you were there...
shining, sparkling, swaying in happiness,
and here I was, burning for you...
The clouds have thundered again;
with a great rumble the rains have fallen.
A wandering storm has arrived,
but it hasn't managed to quench you,
O my love, this light [hasn't been quenched], however much they torment it —
the rain, the wind, the lightning!
My love, come to me now, my love
O my love, come to me now, beloved
Look at this crazy girl!
She knows nothing of the world.
A gust of wind will pass through,
and bring with it her lover.
My love, come to me now, my love
With all my heart, I didn't let this (lamp of) love be extinguished
O love, this light
With all my heart I didn't let this (lamp of) love be extinguished
O love, this light
O beloved, beloved, beloved

The moon waited alone in the arms of the night;
the moonlight guarded the blooming youth of the night.
A gust of wind; a shining night!
In a palanquin of stars arrived a crowd of fireflies.
A thought rose and hesitated on everyone's lips.
The drums and cymbals began to pound, a great tambourine started to tap, and
my lovely Radha strutted out and began dancing!
Who knows from whence this handsome loverboy appeared to dance!
My love, behold how my heart trembles with fear.
My lover
Don't seize my arms; shyness overwhelms me
Yes, let me go; you have my oath
No, no, don't be stubborn, let me go, my sweet!
Look, I'll badmouth you; go away, turn back, move, don't torture me, my love
My love, behold how my heart trembles with fear.
My love
On the banks of the Jamuna River, the drum will sound, Krishna will dance with Radha
Krishna shall dance with Radha
Songs on the lips, exultation in the heart
Krishna shall dance with Radha
Thirsting breaths and rapturous bodies,
Krishna shall dance with Radha
The world beholds them in astonishment.
Krishna shall dance with Radha

Kisi Se Ishq Ke Vaade
Promise of love to someone

Kahin Hum Tod Aaye Hain
We have broken it

Magar Ye Dil, Ye Jaan
But this heart , this life

Shayad Wahin Hum Chod Aaye Hain
Maybe we have left it there

Ishq Bina
without love

Ishq Bina Kya Jeena Yaara
what is the point of living ?

Ishq Bina Kya Marna
what is the point of dying ?

Gud Se Meetha
sweeter than gud ( sugar cane)

Imli Se Khatta
more sour than imli

Vaada Ye Pakka
its a firm promise

Dhaaga Ye Kachha
it is a flimsy thread

Is Se Pehle
Before this

Is Raaste Mein
on this path

Kitne Hi
how many

Mehboob Gaye Hain
lovers have gone Raaste Mein Dariya Hai Koi
is there a river in the path ?

Jis Mein Saare Doob Gaye Hain
that all drown in it ?

Khar, Sach Se Sachha
?Victory , truer than true

Har, Jhooth Se Jhootha
Defeat , bigger lie than lie

Ever since I saw you
What has come over me
What is this
Ecstasy I feel?

I hope I don't fall in love
I hope I don't get lost
How do I hold myself back, tell me!

A fragrance
Clouds my vision
And suffuses my being
What storm
Rages under my breath

I don't know
I hope I don't make the mistake
I hope I don't fall in love
How do I hold myself back, tell me

I can't
hold myself
back anymore

How do I
tell you?
Its no fault of mine

I hope I don't give into desire
I hope I don't fall in love
How do I hold myself back, tell me

There goes the rainless cloud, I can't see any rain
here i can hear the cuckoo's melancholy, I can't hear any melody
This earth in itself is a garden, but the petals of my flower are dying
This life in itself is a bounty, but my soul is getting eroded...

The moon shines bright,
Time seems to be moving slow
Nobody seems to be realising all this
But my eyes are alone set on you
As the breeze blows past
The garden seems to smile
Nobody seems to be enjoying all this
But my hands alone shall touch you
The wind shall continue blowing
The warmth of the sunshine shall continue
There is no change in all that
The sky and earth would wish us a great life
And those wishes haven't yet ceased
Forever in the skies...
The moon shines bright
There goes the desired cloud, ask for the rains
Here you can hear the cuckoo singing, listen to its music
The earth in itself is a beautiful garden, go search for your flowers
This life in itself is a bounty, go search for your needs.
The moon shines bright...
