Lyrics: Main Tenu Samjhawan (Rahat Fateh Ali Khan)

Some good songs have come out since the last time I posted anything here. Best among them are songs from Blood Money. And Ali Zafar's London, Paris, New Yorkalso has some nice songs. But I didn't find enough time to post them here. Been busy playing with my new toy - Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
Anyways, I'm here today to post - not any new - but a little older song. This one is from a punjabi movie named "Virsa" starring Arya Babbar. The song is titled "Main Tenu Samjhawan Ki", sung beautifully by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. I had listened to it long time back. But it resurfaced and been ruling my mind after I watched this unplugged version of the song -



Anyway, just listen to the original songs below from the movie. There are three versions. Original, Unplugged and one version sung by Sabir Ali Bagga. Let me know how you like it. English translation of the song are indented towards the right after each verse/para.

Nai jeena tere baajhon, nai jeena! nai jeena!
Nai jeena tere baajhon, nai jeena! nai jeena!

Won’t live without you! Won’t live! Won’t live!
Won’t live without you! Won’t live! Won’t live!

Main tenu samjhawan ki, 
Na tere baajhon lagda jee!
Main tenu samjhawan ki, 
Na tere baajhon lagda jee! 
Tu ki jaane pyar mera, 
Main karaan intezar tera! 
Tu dil, tunhion jaan meri! 
Main tenu samjhawan ki, 
Na tere baajhon lagda jee!
Haye tu ki jaane pyar mera, 
Main karaan intezar tera! 
Tu dil, tunhion jaan meri!
Main tenu samjhawan ki,
Na tere baajhon lagda jee!

( How do I explain to you?
Without you, my heart is anxious!
How do I explain to you?
Without you, my heart is anxious!
What would you know about my love!
I keep on waiting for you.
You are my heart, you are my life! ) x2
How do I explain to you?
Without you, my heart is anxious!

Mere dil vich reh ke
mere dil da haal na jaane! 
Tere baajhon kalleyan beh ke 
ronde nain ni maane! 
Jeena mera haye marna mera, 
Naale tere si.
Kar aitbar mera, 
Main karaan intezar tera! 
Tu dil, tunhion jaan meri! 
Main tenu samjhawan ki, 
Na tere baajhon lagda jee! 

Even though you stay in my heart,
you don’t know the condition of my heart!
My humble eyes cry sitting alone
in your absence!
Me being alive, me being dead,
In both, I wanna be with you!
Trust me.
I keep on waiting for you!
You are my heart, you are my life!
How do I explain to you?
Without you, my heart is anxious!

-Female voice starts-
Ooo Ve changa nahion keeta beeba, 
Ve changa nahion keeta beeba, 
Dil mera tod ke! 
Ve bada pachtaaiyaan akhaan, 
Ve bada pachtaaiyaan akhaan, 
Tere naavain jod ke!

You didn’t do this right oh decent, pretty girl,
You didn’t do this right oh decent, pretty girl!
breaking my heart into pieces!
These eyes regretted so much,
These eyes regretted so much,
That they bonded with you!

-Female voice ends-

Sunjhiyaan sunjhiyaan dil dian galiyaan, 
Sunjhiyaan meriyan baawan! 
Aaja terian khashbowan nu, 
Labhdiyaan merian saahanvaan! 
Tere bina haaye, 
Kiven karaan door udasi, 
Dil bekarar mera! 
Main karan intezar tera! 
Tu dil, tunhion jaan meri! 

Pathways of heart are deserted,
Deserted are these arms of mine!
Come, I'll embed your frgrance
in my breath!
Without you oh baby,
How do I overcome sadness?
My heart is restless,
I keep on waiting for you.
You are my heart, you are my life!

Main tenu samjhawan ki, 
Na tere baajhon lagda jee! 
Haye tu ki jaane pyar mera, 
Main karaan intezar tera! 
Tu dil, tunhion jaan meri! 
Main tenu samjhawan ki, 
Na tere baajhon lagda jee! 

How do I explain to you?
Without you, my heart is anxious!
Oh what would you know about my love!
I keep on waiting for you.
You are my heart, you are my life!
How do I explain to you?
Without you, my heart is anxious!
