Abhi Na Jaao Chhod Kar (English Translation)

Abhi na jaao chhod kar
Please don’t leave yet.

Ke dil abhi bhara nahi
My heart still hasn’t had enough.

Abhi na jaao chhod kar
Please don’t leave yet.

Ke dil abhi bhara nahi
My heart still hasn’t had enough.


Abhi abhi to aayi ho
You have only just arrived.

Abhi abhi to
Just now, only just.

Abhi abhi to aayi ho
You have only just arrived.

Bahaar ban ke chhayi ho
You have spread all around like spring.

Hawa zara mehak to le
Let the breeze absorb your fragrance.

Nazar zara behak to le
Let my eyes lose themselves in your beauty.

Yeh shaam dhal to le zara
Let this evening fade a little.

Yeh shaam dhal to le zara
Let this evening fade a little.

Yeh dil sambhal to le zara
Let this heart compose itself for a while.

Main thodi der jee to loon
Let me live a little longer.

Nashe ke ghoont pee to loon
Let me take a few sips of this intoxication.

Nashe ke ghoont pee to loon
Let me take a few sips of this intoxication.

Abhi to kuch kaha nahi
We haven’t said anything yet.

Abhi to kuch suna nahi
I haven’t heard anything from you yet.

Abhi na jaao chhod kar
Please don’t leave yet.

Ke dil abhi bhara nahi
My heart still hasn’t had enough.


Abhi nahi, abhi nahi
Not yet, not yet.

Nahi nahi nahi nahi
No, no, no, no.

Abhi na jaao chhod kar
Please don’t leave yet.

Ke dil abhi bhara nahi
My heart still hasn’t had enough.


Adhoori aas…
Unfulfilled hope…

Adhoori aas chhod ke
Leaving an unfulfilled hope behind,

Adhoori pyaas chhod ke
Leaving an unquenched thirst behind,

Jo roz yunhi jaaogi
If you leave like this every day,

To kis tarah nibhaaogi
Then how will you sustain this love?

Ki zindagi ki raah mein
For on the path of life,

Jawaan dilon ki chaah mein
In the desires of young hearts,

Kai makaam aayenge
Many stages will come,

Jo humko aazmaayenge
That will put us to the test.

Bura na maano baat ka
Please don’t take what I say the wrong way.

Yeh pyaar hai, gila nahi
This is love, not a complaint.

Haan dil abhi bhara nahi
Yes, my heart still hasn’t had enough.
