Aa Dil Main Tujhe Rakh Loun Naat Lyrics
Bay Khud Kiye Detay Hain, Andaaz E Hijabana
Aa Dil Mein Tujhay Rakh Loon, Aie Jalwa E Janana
Kyun Aankh Milayi Thi, Kyun Aag Lagayi Thi
Ab Rukh Ko Chupa Baithay, Ker Kay Mujhay Deewana.
Jee Chahata Hai Touhfay Mein Behjoun Main Unhein Aakhein
Kay Darshan Ka To Darshan Ho, Nazranay Ka Nazrana.
Kyun Aankh Milayee Thi, Kyoon Aag Lagayee Thi
Ab Rukh Ko Chupa Baitha Kar Key Mujhay Dewana.
Peenay Ko To Pee Loun Ga Per Arz Zara Si Hai
Kay Ajmer Ka Saaqi Ho, Baghdad Ka Maikhana.
Bedam Meri Kismat Mein Sajday Hain Usi Ghar Kay
Chota Hai Na Choutay Ga Sang E Dar E Janana.

O beloved manifestation of beauty, let me keep you in my heart.
Kyun Aankh Milayi Thi, Kyun Aag Lagayi Thi
Ab Rukh Ko Chupa Baithay, Ker Kay Mujhay Deewana.
Translation: Why did I gaze into your eyes, why did I ignite a flame,
Now I hide my face, having become mad at you.
Jee Chahata Hai Touhfay Mein Behjoun Main Unhein Aakhein
Kay Darshan Ka To Darshan Ho, Nazranay Ka Nazrana.
Translation: My heart desires to send them my eyes as a gift,
So that they may have the vision and beauty of your sight.

Translation: Why did I gaze into your eyes, why did I ignite a flame,
Now I hide my face, having become mad at you.

Translation: I am ready to drink but with a request,
That the cupbearer is from Ajmer, and the tavern is from Baghdad.
Bedam Meri Kismat Mein Sajday Hain Usi Ghar Kay
Chota Hai Na Choutay Ga Sang E Dar E Janana.
Translation: Helpless I am, my destiny is to prostrate at their doorstep,
Even though the doorpost may be small, I will not pass it by, O beloved.

O, the spectacle of my beloved, let me keep you in my heart
Why did I lock eyes, why did I ignite the fire
Now I hide my face, becoming a crazy person for you
I want to send you a gift of eyes
So that you can see me, and give me your gaze in return
Why did I lock eyes, why did I ignite the fire
Now I hide my face, becoming a crazy person for you

That the cupbearer be from Ajmer and the tavern from Baghdad
My destiny is helpless, my prostration is at that house
I am small, but I will not be left out from the doorstep of my beloved”

બે ખુદ કિએ દેતે હૈં, અંદાજે હિજાબાના
આ દિલ મેં તુઝકો રખ લૂં, ઐ જલવા એ જનાના
ક્યું આંખ મિલાયી થી, ક્યું આગ લગાયી થી
અબ રૂખ કો છુપા બેઠે, કર કે મુઝકો દીવાના
જી ચાહતા હૈ તૌહ્ફે મેં બેઝૌં મૈં ઉન્હેં આંખેં
કે દર્શન કા તો દર્શન હો, નજરાને કા નજ્રાના
ક્યું આંખ મિલાયી થી, ક્યું આગ લગાયી થી
અબ રૂખ કો છુપા બેઠા કર કે મુઝકો દેવાના
પીને કો તો પી લૂં ગા પર અરજ ઝરા સી હૈ
કે અજમેર કા સાકી હો, બગદાદ કા મૈખાના
બેદમ મેરી કિસ્મત મેં સજદાય હૈ ઉસી ઘર કે
છોટા હૈ ના છોટાય ગા સંગ એ દર એ જનાના.
