ja aa aa na na na
peer saha nahin jaaye
(pain has become unbearable)
jangal mein hain bole koyal ku ku ku ku ku ku
ku ku ku
(a cuckoo bird is cooing in the Jungle)
jangal mein hain bole koyal ku ku ku ku ku ku
ku ku ku
kahin aag lage lag jaave
(even if a fire burst out somewhere, let it burn, who cares)
koi naag danse dans jaave
(even if any venomous cobra bites, let it bite, who cares)
kabhi gagan gire gir jaave
(even if the sky falls anytime, let it fall, who cares)
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
(whatever happens, who cares)
is toote dil ki peed sahee na jaaye
(but, the pain of this broken heart is can't be withstood)
ku ku ku
kahin aag lage lag jaave
koi naag danse dans jaave
kabhi gagan gire gir jaave
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
is toote dil ki peed sahee na jaaye
ku ku ku
aavo saiyaan aavo saiyaan
aao saiyaan aao saiyaan aao saiyaan
hai hai haun hai hai haun hai hai hai hai haun hai hai haun
jaaye jaan na jaaye jiya
(even when some body dies and his soul leaves his body, his heart is
not gone and remains within the dead body)
jaaye jiya na jaaye jiya
(but, if the heart goes with the beloved one, it is not possible to
live)
har waqt gujar jaata hai
(however long a duration of time passes by)
par dard thahar jaata hai
(but pain stays for ever)
sab bhool bhi jaaye, koi kuchh yaad magar aata hai
(we may forget everything, but someone keeps on coming back in our
memories)
jis ped ko bel ye lipate
(whichever tree this creeper plant attaches itself to)
wo sookhe toote simte
(that tree will dry up, will break away, will get contracted)
phoolon ke baag ka wada
(love brings a promise of a garden-full of flowers)
par kante pale jyada
(but there are more thorns in any garden than there are flowers)
na dawa lage na dua lage ye prem rog hai hu hu hu
(no medicine heals, no blessing cures, what this illness of love is)
kahin aag lage lag jaave
kahin aag lage lag jaave
koi naag danse dans jaave
kabhi gagan gire gir jaave
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
is toote dil ki peed sahee na jaaye
ku ku ku
aavo saiyaan saiyaan aavo saiyaan
pyaar bada harjai hai
(love is very unfaithful)
par pyaar bina tanhai hai
(but there is only loneliness without love)
dil mat dena kehte hain
(don't give your heart to anyone, wise persons advise)
sab dil dete rahte hain
(still everybody keeps on falling in love)
jab neend chura lete hain
(when sleep gets stolen by lover)
ratjage maja dete hain
(those sleepless nights, like overnight celebrations, provide immense
pleasure)
khushiyan isi ke gam se
(the pain caused by him gives pleasure)
raunak isi ke dam se
(there is splendour due to him)
koi vachan nahin chalta hai
(no promise can be kept)
koi jatan nahin chalta hai
(no efforts succeed)
na ho ye rog to saare log le le ve jog ho hu hu hu
(if this illness of love had not been there, then every person would
have renounced the world and had become a sage)
ku ku ku ku ku ku ku ku ku ku ku ku
jangal mein hain bole koyal ku ku ku ku ku ku
jangal mein hain bole koyal ku ku ku ku ku ku
ku ku ku
kahin aag lage
koi naag danse
kabhi gagan gire
chaahe kuchh bhi ho jaaye
is soone dil ki peed sahee na jaaye
( the pain of this uninhabited heart can't be withstood)
is soone dil ki peed sahee na jaaye
ku ku ku
aao saiyaan aao saiyaan saiyaan aao saiyaan
