Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Raaz Ki Baat Hai, Nigaahen Milaane Ko Ji Chaahataa Hai - राज़ की बात है, निगाहें मिलाने को जी चाहता है
A secret dwells, should I whisper it aloud in the crowd?
A secret dwells, should I whisper it aloud or shroud?
Whether to speak or be mute,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
To spend heart and life, it cries,
To spend heart and life, it cries,
It cries.
That accusation the world calls love,
That accusation the world calls love,
That accusation the world calls love,
To bear that burden, my soul does shove,
To bear that burden, my soul does shove,
To bear that burden, my soul does shove,
It shoves.
In placating, such joy I did seize,
In placating, such joy I did seize,
In placating, such joy I did seize,
That again to be angered, my spirit decrees,
That again to be angered, my spirit decrees,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
To spend heart and life, it cries.
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
Dear.
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear.
Oh, the hour when my gaze met yours,
That hour was the dawn of pleasure's doors.
Whenever I see your moon-like face,
Whenever I see your moon-like face,
Whether 'tis Eid or not, for me, it is Eid's embrace,
Whether 'tis Eid or not, for me, it is Eid's embrace,
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear.
Send a message of meeting, I implore,
To come in secret, my soul doth soar,
And having come, to nevermore depart,
And having come, to nevermore depart,
It cries.
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes.
A secret dwells, should I whisper it aloud or shroud?
Whether to speak or be mute,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
To spend heart and life, it cries,
To spend heart and life, it cries,
It cries.
That accusation the world calls love,
That accusation the world calls love,
That accusation the world calls love,
To bear that burden, my soul does shove,
To bear that burden, my soul does shove,
To bear that burden, my soul does shove,
It shoves.
In placating, such joy I did seize,
In placating, such joy I did seize,
In placating, such joy I did seize,
That again to be angered, my spirit decrees,
That again to be angered, my spirit decrees,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
To spend heart and life, it cries.
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
Dear.
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear.
Oh, the hour when my gaze met yours,
That hour was the dawn of pleasure's doors.
Whenever I see your moon-like face,
Whenever I see your moon-like face,
Whether 'tis Eid or not, for me, it is Eid's embrace,
Whether 'tis Eid or not, for me, it is Eid's embrace,
That vision, veiled and yet ever near,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear,
To steal that vision, my soul does hold dear.
Send a message of meeting, I implore,
To come in secret, my soul doth soar,
And having come, to nevermore depart,
And having come, to nevermore depart,
It cries.
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes,
My soul, it yearns to meet eyes.

What happens to the girl dancing behind to the right of Nutan at 1:52 when she nearly missed a beat but corrected herself at the last microsecond. The dancer to the left of Nutan and then seen dancing with her from 4:49 to 5:10 can also be seen in film Sahib Bibi aur Ghulam helping Meena Kumari dress up in song "piya aiso jiya main smai gaiyo re..." and also seen in film Pakeeza before song "thadre rahio banke yaar.." washing paans beside the pool then hits her head against a pillar

Part I:
It is a close secret, shall I say it or not;
Someone has settled in my heart, shall I say it or not.
How much I long to exchange glances;
How much I long to throw away my heart and soul.
That "blame" that people call by the name of "love";
How eagerly I desire to take upon myself that "blame".
The act of placating by someone brought so much joy;
That I wish to break off once again.
Yes, I wish to break off once again.
How much I long to throw away my heart and soul.

Part III:
Please do send a message for a meeting;
As I love to come furtively;
And then do not wish to come back.
How much I long to exchange glances.

Meanings of some unfamiliar words: Tuhmat (calumny, false accusation); Lazzat (pleasant taste, deliciousness); Jalwa ( radiant appearance, splendid sight of beloved); Tamheed (introduction, preface).
The line " woh gadhi mere liye aish ki tamheed hui" was originally "woh gadhi tere mere ishq ki tamheed hui" but was altered as it was considered too explicit for the homely atmosphere in which it is picturised and not at a professional mujra.That shows Sahir Ludhianvi's mastery over poetry.
