Tumhe Dillagi lyrics English translation
Tumhe dillagi bhool jaani padegi
You’ll have to forget this playful flirtation.
Tumhe dillagi bhool jaani padegi
You’ll have to let go of this habit of playful love.
Kabhi dil kisi se laga kar to dekho
Try giving your heart to someone truly—just once.
Tumhe dillagi bhool jaani padegi
You’ll have to forget this flirtation.
Kabhi dil kisi se laga kar to dekho
Try falling in love with someone for real.
————————
Tumhaare khayalon ki duniya yahi hai
Your world is limited only to your thoughts…
Zara meri baahon mein aa kar to dekho
Step into my arms—see what real love feels like.
————————
Dekh ke mujhe kyun tum dekhte nahi
Why do you avoid looking at me when I’m right before you?
Yaara, aisi berukhi haan sahi to nahi
My beloved, this kind of coldness isn’t right.
Raat–din jise maanga tha duaaon mein
The one you prayed for day and night…
Dekho gaur se, kahin main wahi to nahi
Look carefully—could it be that I am that very person?
Main woh rang hoon jo chadh ke kabhi chhoote na
I am a color that, once it stains, never fades away.
Main woh rang hoon jo chadh ke kabhi chhoote na daaman se
I am the color that sticks to your soul—never leaving your being.
Tumhe pyaar se pyaar hone lagega
You’ll learn to love… love itself.
Mere saath shaamein bita kar to dekho
Spend a few evenings with me—see what happens.
Tumhe dillagi bhool jaani padegi
You’ll have to forget your flirtatious ways.
Mohabbat ki raah mein aa kar to dekho
Step onto the path of love—experience it once.
Tere liye main jiyoon
I live only for you.
Tujh pe hi main jaan doon
I would give my life for you.
Dil ki kahoon, dil ki sunoon
I speak from my heart… and listen only to my heart.
Ishq hai, dillagi nahi, dillagi
This is love— not a mere pastime, not simple flirtation.
Tumhe dillagi bhool jaani padegi
You’ll have to forget this playful flirtation.
Mohabbat ki raahon mein aa kar to dekho
Come into the realm of love—feel what it truly is.
