Ajib Dastan Hai Yeh English Lyrics

Ajeeb dastan hai yeh
What a strange story this is.

Kahan shuru, kahan khatam
Who knows where it began and where it will end?

Yeh manzilein hain kaun si
What kind of destinations are these?

Na woh samajh sake, na hum
Neither he nor I could understand it.

Ajeeb dastan hai yeh
What a strange story this is.

Kahan shuru, kahan khatam
Who knows where it began and where it will end?

Yeh manzilein hain kaun si
What kind of destinations are these?

Na woh samajh sake, na hum
Neither he nor I could understand it.

Yeh roshni ke saath kyun dhuan utha chirag se
Why does smoke rise from the lamp along with its light?

Yeh roshni ke saath kyun dhuan utha chirag se
Why does smoke rise from the lamp along with its light?

Yeh khwaab dekhti hoon main ke jag padi hoon khwaab se
Am I dreaming, or have I awakened from a dream?

Ajeeb dastan hai yeh
What a strange story this is.

Kahan shuru, kahan khatam
Who knows where it began and where it will end?

Yeh manzilein hain kaun si
What kind of destinations are these?

Na woh samajh sake, na hum
Neither he nor I could understand it.

Mubarake tumhe ke tum kisi ke noor ho gaye
Congratulations to you, for you have become someone’s light.

Mubarake tumhe ke tum kisi ke noor ho gaye
Congratulations to you, for you have become someone’s light.

Kisi ke itne paas ho ke sabse door ho gaye
You have grown so close to someone that you have become distant from everyone else.

Ajeeb dastan hai yeh
What a strange story this is.

Kahan shuru, kahan khatam
Who knows where it began and where it will end?

Yeh manzilein hain kaun si
What kind of destinations are these?

Na woh samajh sake, na hum
Neither he nor I could understand it.

Kisi ka pyaar leke tum naya jahaan basaoge
With someone’s love, you will build a new world of your own.

Kisi ka pyaar leke tum naya jahaan basaoge
With someone’s love, you will build a new world of your own.

Yeh shaam jab bhi aayegi, tum humko yaad aaoge
Whenever an evening like this comes, I will remember you.

Ajeeb dastan hai yeh
What a strange story this is.

Kahan shuru, kahan khatam
Who knows where it began and where it will end?

Yeh manzilein hain kaun si
What kind of destinations are these?

Na woh samajh sake, na hum
Neither he nor I could understand it.
