Setting the Background for Translating Khoya Khoya Chand

 

Raghuveer is deeply in love with Alka and looks forward to meeting her later in the evening. As he sets out for this rendezvous, he feels an overwhelming sense of joy, which is perhaps the happiest moments of his life. It appears all of nature shares in his ecstasy: the absent moon, the vast sky, the shimmering stars, and the gentle rain come together in a symphony of celebration. Lyricist Shailendra captures this enchantment beautifully, weaving the elements of the nature into a single, rapturous expression of love and anticipation.

 

The union of nature and emotion is a recurring motif in Hindi film songs. One such gem featured on Bollywood Translations is “Yeh Dil Aur Unki Nigaahon Ke Saaye,” written by Jan Nisar Akhtar. Composed for a female protagonist, its lyrics evoke an even deeper, more passionate longing, revealing love in its most intense and poetic form.

The Poetic English Translation of the Lyrics of Khoya Khoya Chand

 

Ho ho ho...
Lost is the moon, clear is the sky,
Through my eyes the night will sweep,
You also will not get any sleep.
Ho ho...
Lost is the moon, clear is the sky,
Through my eyes the night will sweep,
You also will not get any sleep.
Ho ho...
Lost is the moon...

 

The playful breeze begins to tease,
The playful breeze begins to tease,
My heart bud blooms with memories,

Excitement springs in mind’s alleys
Now someone call her quickly

O ho ho...
Lost is the moon, clear is the sky,
Through my eyes the night will sweep,
You also will not get any sleep.
Ho ho...
Lost is the moon

 

The twinkling stars enchanting sight,
The twinkling stars enchanting sight,

They flow with me throughout the night

Love’s silent signs their warmth ignite
Now you should be here with me.

O ho ho...
Lost is the moon, clear is the sky,
Through my eyes the night will sweep,
You also will not get any sleep.
Ho ho...

Lost is the moon
Ho ho ho ho ho ho…

 

A gentle drizzle starts to play,
A gentle drizzle starts to play,
Our fingers clasped together sway,
My heart’s secrets to her I’d say
Now do not drive me crazy

O ho ho…
Lost is the moon, clear is the sky,
Through my eyes the night will sweep,
You also will not get any sleep.
Ho ho…
Lost is the moon

 

I’ve given her all that I own,
I’ve given her all that I own,
Silent she stays, a heart of stone,
Will someone tell her I’m alone
Don’t test my love, so cruelly.

O ho ho…
Lost is the moon, clear is the sky,

Through my eyes the night will sweep

You also will not get any sleep
Ho ho…
Lost is the moon

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Khoya Khoya Chand from Kala Bazar

 

Ho ho ho..
Khoya khoya chand khula aasman
Aankhon mein sari raat jayegi

Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi
Ho ho

Khoya khoya chand khula aasman
Aankhon mein sari raat jayegi
Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi

Ho ho
Khoya khoya chand

 

Masti bhari hawa jo chali
Masti bhari hawa jo chali
Khil khil gayi yeh dil ki kali
Mann ki gali mein hai khalbali
Ke unko toh bulao

 

O ho ho
Khoya khoya chand khula aasman
Aankhon mein sari raat jayegi
Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi

Ho ho
Khoya khoya chand

 

Tare chale najare chale
Tare chale najare chale
Sang sang mere woh sare chale
Charo taraf ishare chale
Kisi ke toh ho jao

 

O ho ho
Khoya khoya chand khula aasman
Aankho mein sari raat jayegi
Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi

Ho ho
Ho ho ho ho ho ho..
Khoya khoya chand

 

Aisi hi raat bheegi si raat
Aisi hi raat bheegi si raat
Hatho me hath hote woh sath

Keh lete unse dil ki yeh baat
Ab toh naa satao

 

O ho ho
Khoya khoya chand khula aasman
Aankhon mein sari raat jayegi
Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi

Ho ho
Khoya khoya chand

 

Hum mit chale jinke liye
Hum mit chale hai jinke liye
Bin kuchh kahe woh chup chup rahe

Koyi jara yeh unse kahe,
Naa aise aajmao

 

O ho ho
Khoya khoya chand, khula aasman
Aankhon mein sari raat jayegi,
Tumko bhi kaise neend aayegi
Ho ho
Khoya khoya chand
Khoya khoya chand

 

 

The Literal English Translation of the Lyrics of Khoya Khoya Chand

 

The lost moon the open sky

The entire night will pass through my eyes

How will you also get sleep

 

The playful breeze picks up

The bud of my heart has blossomed

There is excitement in the mind’s lanes

Someone please call her

 

The stars move along, so do the sights

They all move along with me

All around the signs indicate

Now belong to someone

 

A rainy night like this

If she was with me hand in hand

I would tell her secrets of my heart

Do not tease me now

 

For whom I have given everything

Without saying a word she remains silent

Someone please tell her

Not to test me in this manner

Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya Poetic Translation of Hit Song from Guide

 

Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya – Translation of Rafi Song for Dev Anand

Meta Description:  Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya is a hit song from Dev Anand film Guide. Majrooh is the lyricist and Rafi the singer. Sing my English translation to the original track.

Setting the Background for Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya

 

In this song, Rosie stands accused of infidelity by Raju, not because she is involved with another man. Instead, Rosie has become so consumed by her dance performances that she no longer has time for her lover and mentor, Raju, who has tirelessly worked to enable her reach the pinnacle of success.

The visual execution of this song is pure cinematic brilliance, brought to life by director Vijay Anand. Raju imagines himself singing the song on stage, with Rosie’s dance unfolding in the background. The stark disconnect between the two elements poignantly emphasizes Raju's isolation and the emotional distance that has come between the once-intimate lovers.

The Poetic English Translation of the Lyrics of Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya

 

What have I now become

Unfaithful lost in your love

My pain I can’t fathom

Unfaithful lost in your love

 

At least I’m free of a misconception

Learnt beauty’s true meaning

Ho, At least I’m free of a misconception

Learnt beauty’s true meaning

It isn’t a paragon of perfection

But is a scorpion’s sting

Pain has made my heart numb

Unfaithful lost in your love

My pain I can’t fathom

Unfaithful lost in your love

 

I don’t know why but we have become

Now centuries apart

Yes, I don’t know why but we have become

Now centuries apart

Looking at us who will believe we

Were two bodies one heart

We have hit rock bottom

Unfaithful lost in your love

What have I now become

Unfaithful lost in your love

 

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya from Guide

 

Kya se kya ho gaya

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Chaaha kya kya mila

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

 

Chalo suhaana bharam to toota

Jaana ke husn kya hai

Ho, chalo suhaana bharam to toota

Jaana ke husn kya hai

Kehti hai jis ko pyaar duniya

Kya cheez kya bala hai

Dil ne kya na saha

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Chaaha kya kya mila

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

 

Tere mere dil ke beech ab to

Sadiyon ke faasle hain

Haan tere mere dil ke beech ab to

Sadiyon ke faasle hain

Yakeen hoga kise ke hum tum

Ik raah sang chale hain

Hona hai aur kya

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Kya se kya ho gaya

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

 

The Literal Translation of the Lyrics of Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya

 

Kya se kya ho gaya

What was I and what I have now become

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Unfaithful one in your love

Chaaha kya kya mila

What did I desire and what did I get

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Unfaithful one in your love

 

Chalo suhaana bharam to toota

At least I am free of the misconception that was giving me a false sense of pleasure

Jaana ke husn kya hai

I have learnt the truth about beauty

Kehti hai jis ko pyaar duniya

I have learnt what the world calls love

Kya cheez kya bala hai

Is actually a dangerous thing

Dil ne kya na saha

What has my heart not suffered

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Unfaithful one in your love

 

Tere mere dil ke beech ab to

Now between our hearts

Sadiyon ke faasle hain

Lies a distance of centuries

Yakeen hoga kise ke hum tum

Who will believe that we once

Ik raah sang chale hain

Travelled the same path

Hona hai aur kya

What more can befall me

Bewafa tere pyaar mein

Unfaithful one in your love
