kisi ko yu tamannao me uljhaya nahi karte
uljhaya nahi karte meri jaan meri jaan
chahne walo ko tadpaya nahi karte meri jaan

tumhare juthe vado se agar dil ko karar aata
khushi se mar na jate ham jo hamko aitbar aata
dile betab ko vado se bahlaya nahi karte
bahlaya nahi karte meri jaan meri jaan
chahne walo ko tadpaya nahi karte meri jaan

khataye hai ke aise bewfa ko pyar karte hai
bewfa ko pyar karte hai usi ko dekh kar jite hai
jis jalim pe marte hai
kahega ye kaun usko ke tarsaya nahi karte
tarsaya nahi karte meri jaan meri jaan
chahane walo ko tadpaya nahi karte meri jaan

Don't ensnare a heart with dreams,
My love, my life, don't weave such schemes.
Don't torment those who yearn for you,
My love, my life, your love is true.

If solace bloomed from vows untrue,
We'd die of joy, believing you.
Don't soothe a restless heart with lies,
My love, my life, beneath the skies.
Don't torment those who yearn for you,
My love, my life, your love is true.

Our fault, to love a faithless one,
To live by him, our race is run.
The tyrant's face, our every breath,
Who dares to say, "Invite no death?"
Don't leave them yearning, filled with pain,
My love, my life, again, again.
Don't torment those who yearn for you,
My love, my life, your love is true.
