Setting the Background for Katra Katra Milti Hai
The song conveys two profound reflections on life:
1. Life is made up of moments. To truly enjoy life, we
must live each moment to the extent we can. Too often, we chase grand goals or
focus solely on the bigger picture, overlooking the simple beauty of the
present. In doing so, we miss what makes life meaningful and may end up feeling
disappointed.
The Poetic English Translation of the Lyrics of Katra Katra Milti Hai
Every moment that you get
Every moment let it
grow
This is called life
(this is called life) let it flow (let it flow)
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be please
Every moment that you get
Every moment let it
grow
This is called life
(this is called life) let it flow (let it flow)
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be please
Yesterday it came again to me
I was asleep you
stirred me gently
I awoke within a
dream, my foot slipped
Into your arms I
tumbled tenderly
In my dreams let me
flow
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be
Every moment that you get
Every moment let it
grow
This is called life
(this is called life) let it flow (let it flow)
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be
You unfurled for me
the sky above
Yet earth still holds
on to my bare feet
My desire doesn’t end
when we are one
O hopefully, life
tastes forever sweet
In desire let me flow
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be
Every moment that you get
Every moment let it
grow
This is called life
(this is called life) let it flow (let it flow)
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be
Aloft the fine scattering of mist
I have perhaps touched
the endless skies
See how high my heart
has arisen
Supported by the love
in your two eyes
In the mist, let me
flow
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be
Every moment that you get
Every moment let it
grow
This is called life
(this is called life) let it flow (let it flow)
Unquenched am I, let
me be so
Let me be
The Original Hindi Lyrics of Katra Katra Milti Hai from
Ijaazat
Katara katara milati hai
Katara katara jine do
Zindagi hai (zindagi hai), bahane do (bahane do)
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do na.. ..)
Katara katara milati hai
Katara katara jine do
Zindagi hai (zindagi hai), bahane do (bahane do)
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do na.. ..)
Kal bhi to kuchh aisa hi hua tha
Neend mein thi, tumane jab chhua tha
Girate girate baanhon mein bachi main
O Sapane pe paanw pad gaya tha
Sapanon mein bahane do
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do )
Katara katara milati hai
Katara katara jine do
Zindagi hai (zindagi hai), bahane do (bahane do)
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do.. ..)
Tum ne to akaash bichhaaya
Mere nange pairon mein zamin hai
Pa ke bhi tumhaari arazu ho
O Shaayad aisi jindagi hasin hai
Arazu mein bahane do
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do na.. ..)
Katara katara milati hai
Katara katara jine do
Zindagi hai (zindagi hai), bahane do (bahane do)
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do.. ..)
Halke halke kohare ke dhuen mein
Shaayad asamaan tak aa gayi hun
Teri do nigaahon ke sahaare
O Dekho to kahaan tak aa gayi hun
Kohare mein bahane do
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do )
Katara katara milati hai
Katara katara jine do
Zindagi hai (zindagi hai), bahane do (bahane do)
Pyaasi hun main, pyaasi rahane do
(Rahane do.. ..)
