O Mere Dil Ke Chain English Lyrics
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
Chain aaye mere dil ko dua ki jiye
Please pray that my heart may find peace
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
Chain aaye mere dil ko dua ki jiye
Please pray that my heart may find peace
Apna hi saaya dekhke tum jaan-e-jahan sharma gaye
You felt shy just looking at your own shadow, my love
Abhi toh yeh pehli manzil hai tum toh abhi se ghabra gaye
This is only the first step, yet you’ve already become nervous
Mera kya hoga socho toh zara
Just think about what will become of me
Haaye aise na aahein bhara ki jiye
Oh, please don’t sigh like that
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
Chain aaye mere dil ko dua ki jiye
Please pray that my heart may find peace
Aapka armaan aapka naam mera tarana aur nahi
Your desires and your name are the only song I sing
In jhukti palako ke sivah dil ka thikana aur nahi
Other than these downcast eyes, my heart has nowhere else to belong
Jachta hi nahi aankhon mein koi
No one else catches my eye
Dil tumko hi chahe toh kya ki jiye
What can I do when my heart desires only you?
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
Chain aaye mere dil ko dua ki jiye
Please pray that my heart may find peace
Yoon toh akela bhi aksar girke sambhal sakta hoon main
I can usually pick myself up even when I fall
Tum joh pakad lo haath mera duniya badal sakta hoon main
But if you hold my hand, I can change the world
Maanga hai tumhe duniya ke liye
I have asked for you to be my companion in this world
Ab khud hi sanam faisla ki jiye
Now, my love, you must make the decision yourself
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
Chain aaye mere dil ko dua ki jiye
Please pray that my heart may find peace
O mere dil ke chain
O peace of my heart
O mere
O my love
