Paroles et traduction Ghulam Ali feat. Kavita Krishnamurthy - Woh Nahi Mera Magar

Woh Nahi Mera Magar

vo nahīñ merā magar us se mohabbat hai to hai
ye agar rasmoñ rivājoñ se baġhāvat hai to hai
dost ban kar dushmanoñ sā vo satātā hai mujhe
phir bhī us zālim pe marnā apnī fitrat hai to hai
jal gayā parvāna gar to kyā ḳhatā hai sham.a kī
raat bhar jalnā jalānā us kī qismat hai to hai
kab kahā maiñ ne ki vo mil jaa.e mujh ko maiñ use
ġhair nā ho jaa.e vo bas itnī hasrat hai to hai
duur the aur duur haiñ har dam zamīn-o-āsmāñ
dūriyoñ ke ba.ad bhī donoñ meñ qurbat hai to hai
sach ko maiñ ne sach kahā jab kah diyā to kah diyā
ab zamāne kī nazar meñ ye himāqat hai to hai

Woh Nahi Mera Magar

She is not mine, but if I love her, so what?
If it is a rebellion against customs and traditions, so what?
Like a friend, she torments me like an enemy
Yet, to die for that tyrant is my nature
If the moth was burnt, what is the fault of the flame?
To burn and make burn all night is her destiny
When did I say she should be mine?
May she not become someone else's, that's all I desire
We were and are far apart, like the earth and the sky
Despite the distance, there is closeness between us
When I said the truth, I said it boldly
If this is foolishness in the eyes of the world, so what?
