LYRICS:

jaane wo kaise log the jin ke pyaar ko pyaar milaa

hum ne to jab kaliyaan maangee, kaanton kaa haar milaa

ANTARA 1
khushiyon kee manzil dhoondhee to gam kee gard milee GARD=DUST

chaahat ke nagmei chaahe to aahen sard milee SARD=COLD

dil ke bojh ko dunaa kar gayaa, jo gamhaar milaa

ANTARA 2
bichhad gayaa har saathee de kar, pal do pal kaa saath

kis ko fursat hain jo thaame diwaano kaa haath

hum ko apanaa saayaa tak aksar bezaar milaa

ANTARA 3
is ko hee jeenaa kahate hain to, yoo hee jee lenge

uf naa karenge, lab see lenge, aansoo pee lenge

gham se ab ghabaraanaa kaisaa, gam sau baar milaa

MEANINGS:

Jaane Woh Kaise Log The Jinke Pyar Ko Pyar Mila
who knows what type of people they were whose love received love
Humne To Jab Kaliyaan Maangi Kaaton Ka Haar Mila
whenever I asked for flower buds I got garlands of thorns

Bichhad Gayaa Har Saathi Dekar Pal Do Pal Ka Saath
every companion parted from me after travelling just a few minutes with me
Kisko Phursat Hai Jo Thaame Deewane Ka Haath
who has the time to hold the hand of some one who is crazy in love
Humko Apna Saaya Tak Aqsar Bezaar Mila
I found even my shadow uninterested in me
Humne To Jab Kaliyaan Maangi Kaaton Ka Haar Mila
whenever I asked for flower buds I got garlands of thorns

Isko Hi Jeena Kehte Hain To Yunhi Ji Lenge
If this is called living then I will live it this way
Uf Na Karenge Lab See Lenge Aansoo Pee Lenge
I will not sigh, I will sew my lips, I will drink my tears
Gham Se Ab Ghabraana Kaisa Gham Sau Baar Mila
why be scared of sorrow, I have received sorrow thousands of times
Humne To Jab Kaliyaan Maangi Kaaton Ka Haar Mila
whenever I asked for flower buds I got garlands of thorns
