Heer Ranjha – Milo Na Tum

Heer Ranjha – Milo Na Tum

This is a one song translation from the 1970 movie Heer Ranjha, directed by Chetan Anand and starring Raaj Kumar and Priya Rajvanshi. The movie was unique because of its dialogues in verse. With lyrics by Kaifi Azmi and music by Madam Mohan one expected a galaxy of superb songs. However, only one of the numbers stood out as extraordinary. This was the realization and acknowledgement of being in love by Heer. Lata Mangeshkar has surpassed herself in this soulful song.

Milo na tum to ham ghabaraaye
Milo to aankh churaaye
Hamein kyaa ho gayaa hai
Tumhee ko dil kaa raaz bataaye
Tumhee se raaz chhupaaye
Hamein kyaa ho gayaa hai ...

O bhole saathiyaa
Dekhe jo shokhii tere pyaar kee
Aanchal mein bhar lee hamane
Saaree baharein sansaar kee
Nayee adaa se ham ithalaaye
Paayee khushi lutaaye
Hamein kyaa ho gayaa hai

Roothe kabhee kabhee maan gaye
Baatein tumhaaree hum jaan gaye
Aisee adaayein qurabaan gaye
Tumhein manaaye dil bahalaaye
Kyaa kyaa naaz uthaaye
Hamein kyaa ho gayaa hai

O sohane jogiyaa
Rang le hamein bhi isee rang mein
Phir se sunaa de bansi
Kaliyaan khilaa de gore ang mein
Vahi jo taane aag lagaaye
Unhee se aag bujhae
Hamein kyaa ho gayaa hai  

I fret when you are not around

But avoid you when you come

What has overcome me?

I want to share my innermost secrets with you

And hide them from you at the same time

What has overcome me?

O my dear friend

Experiencing the magic of your love

I have gathered in my soul

All the blossoms in this world

I have been infused with fresh coquettishness

And cannot contain my joy

What has overcome me?

You first sulk and then yield to me

I know what you are up to

But I have surrendered to your demeanor

I entreat you I please you

I tolerate your every mood

What has overcome me?

O my beautiful lover

Let me also experience this love

Play your flute again

And let my fair body reverberate with passion

The music that sets my soul on fire

Will also quench my desire

What has overcome me?
