Jeene Laga Hoon lyrics English translation
Jeene laga hoon pehle se zyada
I’ve started to live more than before
Pehle se zyada tumpe marne laga hoon
I’ve started to love you more than before
Main mera dil aur tum ho yahan
Me, my heart and you’re right here
Phir kyun ho palkein jhukaye wahan
So why are you standing there looking down
Tumsa haseen pehle dekha nahi
I haven’t seen anyone as beautiful as you
Tum isse pehle the jaane kahan
Where were you until now
Jeene laga hoon pehle se zyada
I’ve started to live more than before
Pehle se zyada tumpe marne laga
I’ve started to love you more than before
Rehte ho aake joh tum paas mere
When you come near me
Tham jaaye pal yeh wahin bas main yeh sochun
I start to think that time should stop right there
Sochun main tham jaaye pal yeh paas mere jab ho tum
I think that time should stop when you come near me
Sochun main tham jaaye pal yeh paas mere jab ho tum
I think that time should stop when you come near me
Chalti hai saansein pehle se zyada
My breaths are flowing more than before
Pehle se zyada dil theharne laga
My heart pauses more than before
Tanhaiyon mein tujhe dhoondhe mera dil
My heart searches for you in the loneliness
Har pal yeh tujhko hi soche bhala kyun
Why does it think about you all the time
Tanhai mein dhoondhe tujhe dil har pal tujhko soche
My heart searches for you in the loneliness and thinks about you all the time
Tanhai mein dhoondhe tujhe dil har pal tujhko soche
My heart searches for you in the loneliness and thinks about you all the time
Milne lage dil pehle se zyada
Our hearts have started to connect more than before
Pehle se zyada ishq hone laga
Our love is more deeper than before
