Kaleje mein Jo Lag Jaati Lyrics Translation | Kya Dilli Kya Lahore

Movie: Kya Dilli Kya Lahore
Music: Sandesh Shandilya
Lyrics: Gulzar
Singer: Ustad Hamid Ali Khan

Kaleje mein jo lag jaati, to kya hota
Bina dushman, akela reh gaya hota

Had it (the bullet) hit (me) in the chest, What would have happened,
You would have remained alone, without an enemy..

Tujhe tanhayi kha jaati
Tu pagal ho gaya hota
Bina dushman, akela reh gaya hota

Loneliness would have eaten you,
You would have gone mad,
You would have remained alone, without an enemy..

Akela kya karega koi sarhad ka..
Bina dushman na matlab ka, na maqsad ka
Lakeerein kheench kar
tanha kabaddi khelta hota

What would one do with the border alone,
Without an enemy, there is no meaning, no motive,
You'd be drawing lines [talking of the border]
and playing kabaddi alone.
[Kabaddi is a team sport which is just not possible to play alone.]

Kaleje mein jo lag jaati, to kya hota
Bina dushman, akela reh gaya hota
