Kahin Aag Lage Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Taal
jaana pir saha na jaaye
Beloved, the pain can’t be endured.
jangal mein hain bole koyal ku ku kuu…
In the jungle the cuckoos are crying ku ku kuu!
kahin aag lage lag ja ve
If a fire sparks, let it burn!
koi naag danse Dans ja ve
If a cobra bites, let it!
kabhi gagan gire gir ja ve
Let the sky fall down!
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
It doesn’t matter what happens!
is tuute dil ki pir sahi na jaaye
the pain of this broken heart can’t be endured.
kahin aag lage lag ja ve
If a fire sparks, let it burn!
koi naag danse dans ja ve
If a cobra bites, let it!
kabhi gagan gire gir ja ve
Let the sky fall down!
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
It doesn’t matter what happens!
is tuute dil ki pir sahi na jaaye
the pain of this broken heart can’t be endured.
aao saiyyan…
Come back, beloved!
jaaye jaan na jaaye jiya
Love doesn’t die along with the body.
jaaye jiya na jaaye jiya
But if love dies, life dies.
har vaqt guzar jaata hai
the ages pass,
par dard thahar jaata hai
but pain lingers forever.
sab bhuul bhi jaaye
Everything might be forgotten,
koi kuchh yaad magar aata hai
but some memories linger forever.
jis per ko bel yeh lipate
the tree this vine winds around
voh suukhe tuute simte
will wither and break.
phuulon ke baag ka waada
Love promises a flower garden,
par kaante phale zyaada
but more often nourishes thorns.
na dava lage na duwa lage
Neither medicine nor prayers can cure you;
yeh prem rog hai
this love is an incurable illness.
kahin aag lage lag ja ve…
If a fire sparks, let it burn…
koi naag danse dans ja ve
If a cobra bites, let it!
kabhi gagan gire gir ja ve
Let the sky fall down!
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
It doesn’t matter what happens!
is tuute dil ki pir sahi na jaaye
the pain of this broken heart can’t be endured.
aao saiyyan…
Come back, beloved!
pyaar bada harjaayi hai
Love is so fickle,
par pyaar bina tanhaayi hai
but without love comes loneliness.
dil mat dena kahate hain
they say, don’t give away your heart.
sab dil dete rahte hain
But everyone keeps giving it away.
jab nind chura lete hain
When (lovers) rob you of your sleep,
raat jage maza dete hain
those sleepless nights are a pleasure;
khushiyaan isi ke gam se
your pain brings you happiness.
raunaq isi ke dam se
His false promise lends your life radiance.
koi vachan nahin chalta hai
No promise ever works;
koi jatan nahin chalta hai
no amount of trying will make it work.
na ho yeh rog to saare log le le ve jog ho
If this disease called love didn’t exist, everyone would be a wiseman.
jangal mein hain bole koyal ku ku kuu…
In the jungle the cuckoos are crying ku ku kuu!
kahin aag lage
If a fire sparks,
koi naag Danse
if a cobra bites,
kabhi gagan gire
if the sky should fall,
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
it doesn’t matter what happens!
is suune dil ki pir sahi na jaaye…
the pain of this barren heart can’t be endured…
aao saiyyan…
Come back, beloved!
