jaane naa, jaane naa hay
yeh duniya jaane naa dil ki lagi
bigadi banau kaise unako manau re
yeh duniya jaane naa dil ki lagi
hay ram, jaane naa dil ki lagi

dil me rahe woh mere
dil ki naa jani hay dil ki naa jani
kanto me ulajhi roye
meri jindgani roye meri javaani
kaise ise sulajhau
mai kaise mai kaise ise sulajhau re
yeh duniya jaane naa dil ki lagi
hay ram, jaane naa dil ki lagi

sath-sahare chhute
aas ke taare tute aas ke taare
kaliya toh khil naa saki
dil se angare phute dil se angare
aag se aag bujhau
bujhau kaise aag se aag bujhau re
yeh duniya jaane naa dil ki lagi
hay ram, jaane naa dil ki lagi
jaane naa, jaane naa hay
yeh duniya jaane naa dil ki lagi

They know not, they know not, alas,
This world, it knows not the heart's burning.
How to mend, how to appease them,
This world, it knows not the heart's burning.
Oh, Ram, they know not the heart's burning.

She dwells in my heart,
My heart's plea unheard, unheard.
Entangled in thorns, it weeps,
My life weeps, my youth weeps.
How can I untangle this,
How, how can I untangle this?
This world, it knows not the heart's burning.
Oh, Ram, they know not the heart's burning.

Companions abandoned,
Stars of hope shattered, stars shattered.
The blossoms could not bloom,
From the heart, embers erupted, embers.
Shall I extinguish fire with fire,
How, how shall I extinguish fire with fire?
This world, it knows not the heart's burning.
Oh, Ram, they know not the heart's burning.
They know not, they know not, alas,
This world, it knows not the heart's burning.
