Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam — Hindi Lyrics with English Translation
Kab maine yeh socha tha
I never imagined this would happen
Kab maine yeh jaana tha
I never knew this would be so
Kab maine yeh socha tha
I never imagined this would happen
Kab maine yeh jaana tha
I never knew this would be so
Tum itne badal jaoge
That you would change so much
Tum itna mujhe chahoge
That you would care for me so deeply
Tum itna pyar karoge
That you would love me so much
Tum yoon ikraar karoge
That you would confess your love like this
Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Kab maine yeh socha tha
I never imagined this would happen
Kab maine yeh jaana tha
I never knew this would be so
Tum itne badal jaoge
That you would change so much
Tum itna mujhe chahoge
That you would care for me so deeply
Tum itna pyar karoge

Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Aankhon mein joh narmi hai
The tenderness in your eyes
Pehle toh nahi thi
Wasn’t there before
Saanson mein joh garmi hai
The warmth in your breath
Pehle toh nahi thi
Wasn’t there before
Pehle toh na yoon chaayi thi zulfon ki ghatayein
Your tresses never used to fall like dark clouds before
Pehle toh na yoon chaayi thi zulfon ki ghatayein
Your tresses never used to fall like dark clouds before
Pehle toh na yoon mehki thi aanchal hi hawayein
The breeze around your veil never used to smell so sweet before
Pehle toh nahi aati thi tumko yeh adayein
You never used to have these charming ways before
Aaj kitne haseen hai sitam
How beautiful your sweet torment feels today
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Tum par mere pyar ka jaadu
The magic of my love upon you
Pehle toh nahi tha
Wasn’t there before
Dil jaisa hai beqaabu
My heart has become so uncontrollable
Pehle toh nahi tha
It wasn’t like this before
Pehle toh nahi hoti thi yoon pyar ki baatein
We never used to talk about love like this before
Pehle toh nahi hoti thi yoon pyar ki baatein
We never used to talk about love like this before
Hairaan hoon main sunke sarkar ki baatein
I’m amazed to hear the things you’re saying, my love
Ikraar ki baatein ho ya inkaar ki baatein
Whether you’re speaking of acceptance or rejection
Baat chhedi toh hai kam se kam
At least you’ve started the conversation
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Kab maine yeh socha tha
I never imagined this would happen
Kab maine yeh jaana tha
I never knew this would be so
Tum itne badal jaoge
That you would change so much
Tum itna mujhe chahoge
That you would care for me so deeply
Tum itna pyar karoge
That you would love me so much
Tum yoon ikraar karoge
That you would confess your love like this
Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
Mere mehboob mere sanam
My beloved, my darling
Shukriya meherbani karam
Thank you for your kindness and love
