film: Dil Se
musicdirector: a r rahman
songwriter: gulzar
singer: sonu nigam, kavita krishnamurthy

tu hi tu tu hi tu satrangi re
(you and only you are made up of seven colors of love)

tu hi tu tu hi tu manrangi re
(you and only you have got etched in my mind)

dil ka saaya humsaaya satrangi re manrangi re
(the impressions of your feelings are always present near me)

koi noor hai tu kyon door hai tu
(are you a beam of light. why are you so far away from me)

jab paas hai tu ehsaas hai tu
(when you are near me, you are the only awareness i am left with)

koi khaab hai ya parchhai hai satrangi re e satrangi re e
(i wonder whether you are a dream or a non-existant shadow in my imagination)

is baar bata muhzor hawa thahregi kaha
(O, the one like a stubborn wind, tell me, where you will take a halt)

ishq par zor nahi hai ye wo aatish ghalib
(Ghalib says that there is no way to control the feeling of love. it is like a great fire)

jo lagaye na lage aur bujhaye na bane
(a fire, which can't be set aflame whatever efforts you put, but once started, it can't be extinguished by any efforts you put. Love begins at its own accord and finishes off at its own accord).

jo lagaye na lage aur bujhaye na bane
ishq par zor nahi hai ye wo aatish ghalib

aankho ne kuchh aise chhuaa halka halka uns hua
(you looked at me, your eyes touched me in such a way that i felt a mild attraction for you in my heart)

halka halka uns hua dil ko mahsoos hua
(and my heart got an impression)

tu hi tu tu hi tu jeene ki saari khushboo
(that you and only you are the entire fragrance of living a life)

tu hi tu tu hi tu aarzoo aarzoo
(that you and only you are the desire of mine, o the desired one)

tere jism ki aanch ko chhoote hi mere saans sulagne lagte hai
(when i come near you and i touch the flare of heat of your body, my breaths become so charged up as to set me aflame)

mujhe ishq dilasa deta hai mere dard bilakhne lagte hai
(a feeling of love tries to provide consolations to me, but a feeling of acute pain, about the separation from you, makes me burst into unstoppable tearful cryings and sobbings)

tu hi tu tu hi tu jeene ki saari khushboo
tu hi tu tu hi tu aarzoo aarzoo

chhooti hai mujhe sargoshi se
(you seem to touch me like some whisper passes by my ears)

aankho mein ghuli khamoshi se
(you seem to talk to me with the silence that is dissolved in your eyes)

main farsh pe sajde karta hu
(I bow to the earth to salute you)

kuchh hosh mein kuchh behoshi se
(somewhat in my remaining senses, somewhat totally fainted)

dil ka saaya humsaaya satrangi re manrangi re
koi noor hai tu kyon door hai tu
jab paas hai tu ehsaas hai tu
koi khaab hai ya parchhai hai satrangi re e

teri raho mein uljha uljha hu
(I am lost in the cryptic ways of yours)

teri baho mein uljha uljha
(i am enmeshed in your arms)

suljhane de hosh mujhe
(please let me sort out my senses)

teri chaho mein uljha hu
(I am totally lost in my love for you)

mera jeena junu mera marna junu
(my living a life will be a frenzy, my dying will be an intense passion )

ab iske siva nahi koi suku
(now there is no other relief except this)

mera jeena junu mera marna junu
tu hi tu tu hi tu satrangi re
tu hi tu tu hi tu manrangi re
ishq par zor nahi hai ye wo aatish ghalib
jo lagaye na lage aur bujhaye na bane
jo lagaye na lage aur bujhaye na bane
ishq par zor nahi hai ye wo aatish ghalib

mujhe maut ki god mein sone de
(let me sleep in the lap of death)

teri rooh mein jism dabone de
(let me drown my body in your soul)

satrangi re manrangi re
