Dil to hai dil, dil kaa aitabaar, kyaa keejai
Aa gayaa jo, kisee pe pyaar, kyaa keejai
Yaadò mè teree khoee, raatò ko mài naa soee
Haalat ye mere mana kee, jaane naa jaane koee
Barasoò hee tarasee aàkhè, jaagee hai pyaasee raatè
Aaee hài aate aate hoṭhò pe dil kee baatè
Pyaar mè tere, dil kaa meraa kuchh bhee ho anjaam
Bekaraaree, mè hai iqaraar, kyaa keejai
Chhaayaa hai man pe mere madahosh rahanaa teraa
Mere hee tanako milaa teree baaho kaa feraa
Duuree sahee na jaaye, chain kahee naa aaye
Chalanaa hai ab to teree palako ke chhaaye chhaaye
Bas naa chale re kaam savere leke teraa naam
Dil dhaṛakataa hai baar baar kyaa keejai
A heart can only be a heart – how can it be trusted? What can one do when love comes to the heart?
With you on my mind, there is no sleep at night. The nature of my heart’s feeling is unknown to everyone. My eyes have cried and my heart has been restless for years. My words flow from my heart itself through my lips. The condition of my heart when in love with you has made even rest into restlessness.
Your playful eyes occupy my mind and I feel like I am in your arms always. This distance between us is intolerable and I cannot find peace anywhere. I can only walk in the shadow of your memory. I call your name morning and evening and with every heartbeat. What else can I do?
