Kehata Hai Baabul Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Baabul
kehta hai baabul
(kehta hai baabul, o meri bitiya
a father says o my sweet daughter
tu to hai mere, jigar ki chitthiya) � 2
you are a piece of my heart
daakiya koi jab aayega, tujhko churaake le jayega
some thief is going to steal you away someday
(katega kaise lamha, tere bina bata
how will my days pass without you then?
jiungaa kaise tanhaa, tere bina bata) � 2
how will I live without you?
tu suhagan rahe, sang saajan rahe raat din,
may you never become a widow, may your husband always be at your side
is khushi ke liye, har sitam main uthaa loonga
for this happiness I�m ready to bear any pain
tere jaane ka gham mujhko hoga magar laadli
your going away will make me sad, but my child
leke is dard ko main sada muskuraaunga
I�ll always have a smile even with this pain inside me
(baabul to dil se de raha dua yahi
a father is praying thus for you
khushi ke saaye mein ho zindagi teri) � 2
may you always remain in the shadow of happiness
waqt ke saath zakhm ye bhar jayega
time will heal all wounds
pal guzar jaayega tu meri baat maan le
and time will pass, always remember that
yaadon ke aasre umr katati nahin
life cannot be lived on memories
hai haqiqat yahi, ab tu jaan le
and this is the plain truth
(sumundaron ka paani koi na pi saka
no one can drink the sea water
akela khaara jivan koi na ji saka) � 2
no one can live an empty life
kehta hai baabul, o meri bitiya
tu to hai mere, jigar ki chitthiya
daakiya koi jab aayega, tujhko churaake le jayega
(katega kaise lamha, tere bina bata
jiunga kaise tanha, tere binaa bata) – 2
