Meet naa milaa re man ka
Koee to milan kaa
Karo re upaay
Meet naa milaa re man ka
Chain nahin baahar
chain nahin ghar mė
Man meraa dhartee par
aur kabhee ambar mė
Usko ḍhunḍhaa har dagar mė
har nagar mė
Galee galee dekhaa nayan uthhaaye
Meet naa..
Roz mȧi apne hee
pyaar ko samjhaaoȯ
Vo naheė aayega
maan naheė paaoȯ
Shaam hee se prem deepak
mȧi jalaaoȯ
Phir vohee deepak,
doȯ mė bujhaaye
Meet naa..
Der se mann meraa
aas liye ḍole
Preet bharee baanee
saaz meraa bole
Koee sajnee, ek khiṛkee
bhee na khole
Laakh taraane raha mȧi sunaaye
Meet naa..
I haven’t found the companion of my heart. Someone, please find a way for us to meet.
There’s no peace inside or outside the house. My mind wanders from the earth to the skies. I’ve searched for her in every town, along every road. I looked down every street with beseeching eyes.
Every day I make excuses to my heart. I can’t accept that she may never appear. Every evening, I light a lamp of hope and then am forced to extinguish it.
For a long time, my heart has nurtured this dream, and a theme of love emerges from my song. No lovely one opens her window to me although I have sung hundreds of songs.
Abhimaan 1973; Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Manhar Udhas, Mohammed Rafi
