Badan pe Sitare Lapete Hue Lyrics Translation | Fanney Khan / Sonu Nigam

Movie: Fanney Khan
Music: Shankar-Jaikishan / Amit Trivedi's recreation
Lyrics: Hasrat Jaipuri
Singer: Sonu Nigam (Original song sung by Mohd Rafi)
Label: Saregama

badan pe sitaare lapeTe hue
o jaan-e-tamanna kidhar ja rahi ho
zara paas aao to chain aa jaaye

With your body clad in stars,
where are you going, O wish of my life?
If you come close, I'll get some peace.



hai ban-ne sanwarne ka jab hi mazaa
koi dekhne wala fanney to ho
nahin to ye jalwe hain bujhte diye
koi miTne waala ik fanney to ho

the fun of making up and dressing up is only there
when there is someone like Fanney (me) to see you.
otherwise this style is like extinguishing lamps,
there must be some Fanney ready to sacrifice himself.

[This is with reference to the classic 'shamaa-parvaana' theory.]

badan pe sitaare lapete hue
o jaan-e-tamanna kidhar ja rahi ho
zara paas aao to chain aa jaaye
