Ghoongte Mein Chanda English Lyrics
Ghoongte mein chanda hai, phir bhi hai phaila chaaron aur ujaala
The moon is hidden behind a veil, yet its light shines all around
Ghoongte mein chanda hai, phir bhi hai phaila chaaron aur ujaala
The moon is hidden behind a veil, yet its light shines all around
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Ghoongte mein chanda hai, phir bhi hai phaila chaaron aur ujaala
The moon is hidden behind a veil, yet its light shines all around
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Aaj sundarta dulhan bani hai
Today, beauty itself has become a bride
Koi kismat ka kitna dhani hai
Someone is truly blessed with good fortune
Aaj sundarta dulhan bani hai
Today, beauty itself has become a bride
Koi kismat ka kitna dhani hai
Someone is truly blessed with good fortune
Muh-dikhayi ki khaatir
Just to catch a glimpse of the bride’s face
Dil kya, jaan bhi hai haazir
I’d offer not just my heart, but my life as well
Muh-dikhayi ki khaatir
Just to catch a glimpse of the bride’s face
Dil kya, jaan bhi hai haazir
I’d offer not just my heart, but my life as well
Baadalon ko mor dekhe, chaand ko chakor dekhe, tujhko naseebon waala
The peacock gazes at the clouds, the chakor bird gazes at the moon, and the truly fortunate one gazes at you
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Ghoongte mein chanda hai, phir bhi hai phaila chaaron aur ujaala
The moon is hidden behind a veil, yet its light shines all around
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Paas tu, door tak hain nazaare
You’re close to me, with beautiful scenery stretching far into the distance
Mil rahe hain dilon ko sahaare
Our hearts are finding comfort in each other
Paas tu, door tak hain nazaare
You’re close to me, with beautiful scenery stretching far into the distance
Mil rahe hain dilon ko sahaare
Our hearts are finding comfort in each other
Leke bahaarein tu aayi
You’ve brought the joys of spring with you
Door hui hai tanhaai
My loneliness has finally faded away
Leke bahaarein tu aayi
You’ve brought the joys of spring with you
Door hui hai tanhaai
My loneliness has finally faded away
Ghar ko sanwaar dega, dil ko qaraar dega, roop yeh tera niraala
Your extraordinary beauty will adorn my home and bring peace to my heart
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
Ghunghte mein chanda hai, phir bhi hai phaila chaaron aur ujaala

Hosh na kho de kahin, josh mein dekhne waala
May the one who gazes in excitement not lose his senses
