Aye Meri Zohrajabeen English Translation of Lyrics from Waqt

Aye Meri Zohrajabeen – English Translation of Waqt Qawwali

Meta Description: Aye Meri Zohrajabeen is a Bollywood qawwali from Waqt. The song features Balraj Sahni and Achala Sachdev. Enjoy the English translation to the Qawwali beat.

Aye Meri Zohrajabeen as a Bollywood Qawwali

Traditionally, qawwalis are performed as contests between two teams. In Aye Meri Zohrajabeen, although two teams are featured, the singing is exclusively performed by the male, while the female ensemble plays the musical instruments. The song retains the staccato rhythm and characteristic gestures of the traditional qawwali.

Released in 1965, Waqt is a multi-starrer film that embodies the classic Bollywood theme of lost and found. Aye Meri Zohrajabeen is showcased at the film's outset, before tragedy strikes and the family is torn apart. The performances by Balraj Sahni, portraying the affluent businessman Kedarnath, and Achala Sachdev as his wife, evoke a nostalgic era when romance was an art form—men displayed bravado while women exuded coy charm.

Waqt in Filmfare Awards 1966

Waqt featured prominently in the 13^th Filmfare Awards held in 1966, wining the maximum number of Black Ladies. Though no awards were won for Aye Meri Zohrajabeen, there were plenty of trophies and nominations.

Won

Best Director – Yash Chopra
Best Supporting Actor – Raaj Kumar
Best Story – Akhtar Mirza
Best Dialogue – Akhtar ul Iman
Best Cinematography (Colour) – Dharam Chopra

Nominated

Best Film – B. R. Chopra
Best Actress – Sadhana

Translation of Kahin Door Jab Din Dhal Jaaye from Anand

Kahin Door Jab Din Dhal Jaaye – Lyrics English Translation

Meta Description: Kahin Door Jab Din Dhal Jaaye is a hit song from Rajesh Khanna film Anand. The movie has won many Filmfare awards. Enjoy my English lyrics on the soundtrack.

The Karaoke English Translation of the Lyrics of Kahin Door Jab Din Dhal Jaaye

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

Into the courtyard of my musings

He comes to set my dreams alight

Dreams alight

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

Sometimes the mind is burdened with fears

And eyes on their own get filled with tears

Sometimes the mind is burdened with fears

And eyes on their own get filled with tears

A warm loving touch that matters much

I feel on my shoulder but no one’s in sight

No one’s in sight

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

Sometimes kindred souls stay apart

Sometimes unknown connections start

Sometimes kindred souls stay apart

Sometimes unknown connections start

Complex is the game the mind is to blame

Leaves our own and bears others’ plight

Others’ plight

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

My deep secrets are known to my heart

How my dreams bloomed into works of art

My deep secrets are known to my heart

How my dreams bloomed into works of art

The dreams I have known are all that I own

Even their shadows from me will not disunite

Will not disunite

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

Into the courtyard of my musings

He comes to set my dreams alight

Dreams alight

Somewhere far in the fading daylight

Evening coyly waits for the night

Quiet as a sprite

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Kahin Door Jab Din Dhal Jaaye from Anand

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye
sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye
chupke se aaye

mere khayaalon ke aangan mein
koi sapnon ke deep jalaaye

deep jalaaye

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye
sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye
chupke se aaye

kabhi yun hi jab hui bojhal saansen
bhar aai baithe baithe jab yun hi aankhen

kabhi machal ke pyar se chal ke
chhuye koi mujhe par nazar na aaye

nazar na aaye

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye
sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye
chupke se aaye

kahin to yeh dil kabhi mil nahin paate
kahin pe nikal aaye janmon ke naate

ghani thi uljhan bairi apna man

apna hi hoke sahe dard paraaye

dard paraaye

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye
sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye
chupke se aaye

dil jane mere sare bhed ye gahre
ho gaye kaise mere sapne sunhare

ye mere sapne yahi to he apne
mujse juda na honge inke ye saaye

inke ye saaye

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye
sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye
chupke se aaye

mere khayaalon ke aangan mein
koi sapnon ke deep jalaaye

deep jalaaye

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye
sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye
chupke se aaye

Literal Translation of Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli

kahin door jab din dhal jaaye

somewhere far when the day ends

sanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye

the evening bride plays hard to get

chupke se aaye

comes quietly

mere khayaalon ke aangan mein

in the courtyard of my thoughts

koi sapnon ke deep jalaaye

someone lights the lamps of my dreams

kabhi yun hi jab hui bojhal saansen

sometimes just like that when the breaths are heavy

bhar aai baithe baithe jab yun hi aankhen

eyes are filled with tears for no reason

kabhi machal ke pyar se chal ke

sometimes with unease sometimes with love

chhuye koi mujhe par nazar na aaye

someone touches me but cannot be seen

kahin to yeh dil kabhi mil nahin paate

sometimes these hearts are unable to meet

kahin pe nikal aaye janmon ke naate

sometimes we find relationships that are generations old

ghani thi uljhan bairi apna man

complexities are deep but our mind is at fault

apna hi hoke sahe dard paraaye

despite being our own it shares the pain of others

dil jane mere sare bhed ye gahre

my heart knows all my deep secrets

ho gaye kaise mere sapne sunhare

how my dreams fructified

ye mere sapne yahi to he apne

my these dreams they are only what I own

mujse juda na honge inke ye saaye

even their shadows will not part from me

English Translation of Hamari Adhuri Kahani Title Track

Hamari Adhuri Kahani – Translation of Arijit Singh Hit Song

Hamari Adhuri Kahani is a hit song by Arijit Singh. The movie starred Emraan Hashmi and Vidya Balan. Sing my English translation to the original track.

The Poetic English Translation of the Lyrics of Hamari Adhuri Kahani

We came close

Differences even then did not retreat

Your and my narrative remained sort of incomplete

The earth and sky, one wonders why

Endure separation

True lovers say I how hard they try

Will not reach their destination

Colours and light

Were our delight

This world seemed like a paradise

You left me one night

Alone in my plight

My imprint erased by sunrise

Your and my unfinished narrative

Enveloped by your attractive fragrance

See, we have travelled an undefined distance

Why are you not with me

In the midst of this beauty

When the sun, moon, stars are all there

I am waiting idly

Since an eternity

You are thirsting for me elsewhere

Your and my unfinished narrative

We two tormented souls will sometime meet

Our unfinished story will somewhere complete

In the end all is well

United two souls will dwell

The aura is full of passion

Wedding bells are ringing

Happiness they’re bringing

God himself will grace the occasion

Your and my unfinished narrative

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Hamari Adhuri Kahani

Paas aaye
Dooriyaan phir bhi kam naa hui
Ek adhuri si hamari kahani rahi
Aasmaan ko zameen, ye zaroori nahi
Jaa mile... jaa mile
Ishq saccha wahi Jisko milti nahi
Manzilein... manzilein

Rang thhe, noor tha
Jab kareeb tu tha
Ek jannat sa tha, yeh jahaan
Waqt ki ret pe

Kuch mere naam sa
Likh ke chhod gaya tu kahaan

Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani

Khushbuon se teri yunhi takra gaye
Chalte chalte dekho na hum kahaan aa gaye

Jannatein agar yahin
Tu dikhe kyun nahin
Chaand suraj sabhi hai yahaan
Intezar tera

Sadiyon se kar raha
Pyaasi baithi hai kab se yahaan

Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani

Pyaas ka ye safar khatam ho jayega
Kuch adhura sa jo tha poora ho jayega

Jhuk gaya aasmaan
Mill gaye do jahaan
Har taraf hai milan ka samaa
Doliya hain saji
Khushbuein har kahin
Padhne aaya Khuda khud yahaan

Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani
Hamari adhuri kahani

Hoke Majboor Mujhe Lyrics from Haqeeqat with Translation

Hoke Majboor Mujhe – English Translation of Kaifi Azmi Song

Meta Description: Hoke Majboor Mujhe is a Bollywood hit song from Haqeeqat (1964). The lyrics are by Kaifi Azmi and the music by Madan Mohan. Enjoy the poignant song in English.

Setting the Context for Hoke Majboor Mujhe Usane Bhulaaya Hoga

How would a soldier, facing death on the battlefield, envision his soon-to-be bereaved wife, fiancée, or girlfriend? The legendary Bollywood lyricist Kaifi Azmi offers a poignant and nuanced exploration of this haunting question. If you can listen to the original or read the English translation without shedding a silent tear, you might as well have a heart of stone.

Hoke Majboor Mujhe Usne Bhulaaya Hoga jolts us into the realization that soldiers are not automatons; they are flesh-and-blood humans. Their despair stems not from fear of their own deaths, but from the sorrow of leaving behind their loved ones without the emotional and financial support they had hoped to provide. The other powerful song from Haqeeqat (1964), Kar Chale Hum Fida, underscores their deep sense of patriotic sacrifice.

The Poetic English Transcreation of the Lyrics of Hoke Majboor Mujhe

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Or maybe tried to end her desolate life quietly

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Out of sheer helplessness …

Her heart would have compelled her to accept the worst case

Eyes would have dammed her tears not let them mar her face

Behind closed doors burnt my letters the past to erase

But every letter would be branded on her memory

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Out of sheer helplessness …

She would have tried hard to block out the impending news

Her heart-broken ruined world coming into disuse

Hidden my photos in the hope of ridding the blues

Alas! But my death throes

But my death throes felt in her heart forever will be

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Out of sheer helplessness …

Romantic memories would rekindle intimate desire

The feigned smile would fail to hide her anguished pyre

While greeting kith and kin in her widow’s attire

But she would cry

But she would cry on a friend’s shoulder privately

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Out of sheer helplessness …

Her flowing hair in simple plaits she now ties

The shadow of sadness on her face permanently lies

There will no more be any sparkle in her jaded eyes

And her cheeks will never experience the blush of intimacy

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Or maybe tried to end her desolate life quietly

Out of sheer helplessness …

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Hoke Majboor Mujhe from Haqeeqat (1964)

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Jahar chupake se dawaa jaanake khaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe …

Dil ne aise bhi kuchh afsaane sunaaye honge

Ashq ankhon ne piye aur na bahaaye honge

Bund kamare men jo khat mere jalaaye honge

Ek ek harf jabin par ubhar aaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe …

Usane ghabaraake najar laakh bachaai hogi

Dil ki lutati huyi duniya najar aayi hogi

Mej se jab meri taswir hataai hogi

Hai! Har taraf mujhako

Har taraf mujhako tadapata hua paaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe …

Chhed ki baat pe aramaan machal aaye honge

Gam dikhaawe ki hansi mein ubal aaye honge

Naam par mere jab aansu nikal aaye honge

Sar na kaandhe se

Sar na kaandhe se saheli ke uthhaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe …

Zulf jid karake kisi ne jo banaai hogi

Aur bhi gam ki ghata mukhade pe chhaai hogi

Bijali najaron ne kai din na giraai hogi

Rang chehare pe kai roj na aaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Jahar chupake se dawaa jaanake khaaya hoga

Hoke majboor mujhe …

Meanings of few Urdu words

Majboor = helpless

Afsaane = stories

Ashq = tears

Harf = letter of the alphabet

Jabin = forehead

The Literal English Translation of the Lyrics of Hoke Majboor Mujhe

To capture the essence of the song and maintain its structure as well, certain lines were changed in a nuanced manner, moving away from their literal meaning. I am providing a line-by-line literal translation for those who want to stay true to the exact original meaning.

Hoke majboor mujhe usane bhulaaya hoga

Out of sheer helplessness she would have tried to forget me

Jahar chupake se dawaa jaanake khaaya hoga

She would have consumed poison quietly pretending that she was taking medicine

Dil ne aise bhi kuchh afsaane sunaaye honge

She would have imagined dreadful stories in her mind

Ashq ankhon ne piye aur na bahaaye honge

Het eyes would have stored her tears and not let them flow

Bund kamare men jo khat mere jalaaye honge

She would have burnt my letters in a closed room

Ek ek harf jabin par ubhar aaya hoga

Each alphabet would have been imprinted on her forehead

Usane ghabaraake najar laakh bachaai hogi

Fearing bad news she would have averted her eyes from others

Dil ki lutati huyi duniya najar aayi hogi

She would have sensed her world being destroyed

Mej se jab meri taswir hataai hogi

When she would have removed my photo from the table

Har taraf mujhako tadapata hua paaya hoga

She would experience my intense restlessness all around

Chhed ki baat pe aramaan machal aaye honge

Remembering how I flirted with her, desires would be kindled

Gam dikhaawe ki hansi mein ubal aaye honge

Her sadness would emerge from the feigned smile

Naam par mere jab aansu nikal aaye honge

When hearing my name, she would start crying

Sar na kaandhe se saheli ke uthhaaya hoga

She would not lift her head from her friend’s shoulder

Zulf jid karake kisi ne jo banaai hogi

When someone would have forcibly plaited her hair

Aur bhi gam ki ghata mukhade pe chhaai hogi

The clouds of sadness on her face would get enhanced

Bijali najaron ne kai din na giraai hogi

Her eyes would lose their sparkle for several days

Rang chehare pe kai roj na aaya hoga

For several days her face would have remained ashen

Susheela Raman Version of Yeh Mere Deewanapan Translated

Yeh Mera Deewanapan – Translation of Bollywood Classic

Meta Description: Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai is a Bollywood golden oldie. Susheela Raman created a vibrant version of this popular song. Sing my English translation karaoke style.

Setting the Context for Susheela Raman Remix of Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai

Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai is a hit number from the 1958 Bollywood movie Yahudi. The staidness in the voice of Mukesh, the musical composition of Shankar Jaikishan, and the of Dilip Kumar, unfortunately killed the energy and vibrancy in Shailendra’s lyrics. It took the remix skills of Susheela Raman and her mercurial voice to bring out the madness of love that defines the song. If have infused this eccentricity in the English translation of the song

Susheela Raman is a British musician of Indian origin known for energetic, vibrant, syncretic, and uplifting performances derived from the traditional music of the Indian subcontinent. Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai is a song from her album Love Trap.

The Karaoke English Translation of the Lyrics of Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai

Matters of heart you belittle

I display my love with pride

Perhaps you don’t agree with me

But people will take my side

This is my infatuation

Or my love electrified

This is my infatuation

Or my love electrified

If you cannot recognise this

The fault within you resides

This is my infatuation

My heart desires only you

Only you can be my mate

Whether you come or do not come

I am committed to wait

This is my infatuation

Or my love electrified

If you cannot recognise this

The fault within you resides

One day in such a wilderness

I will suffocate and die

You can call me all you want

I will not come nor reply

This is my infatuation

Or my love electrified

This is my infatuation

Or my love electrified

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai from Yahudi

dil se tujhako bedili hai,

mujhako hai dil kaa guroor

tu ye maane ke na maane,

log maanenge zuroor

yeh meraa deewanapan hai,

yaa muhabbat kaa suroor

yeh meraa deewanapan hai,

yaa muhabbat kaa suroor

tu na pahachaane to hai ye,

teri nazaron kaa qasoor

yeh meraa deewanapan hai ...

dil ko teri hi tamannaa,

dil ko hai tujhase hi pyaar

chaahe tu aaye na aaye,

hum karenge intezaar

yeh meraa deewanapan hai

yaa muhabbat kaa suroor

tu na pahachaane to hai ye,

teri nazaron kaa qasoor

aise veeraane mein ik din,

ghut ke mar jaaenge hum

jitanaa ji chaahe pukaaro,

phir nahin aayenge hum

yeh meraa deewanapan hai

yaa muhabbat kaa suroor

yeh meraa deewanapan hai

yaa muhabbat kaa suroor
