Jodaa
Afsana Khan
Pehlay Apna Bana Kar Tum Khudh Hi Loot Gaye
You reeled me into your world only to strip me of everything.
Khulli Aankhon, Ke Samne Sab Sapne toot Gaye
My dreams came crashing down right before my wide-open eyes.
Pehlay Khudh Phir Khudha Se Juda Kar Gaye
First you tore me away from yourself, then you distanced me from the Divine.
Eh Jodaa Chandi Wala Jodaa Tera Dita Jodaa
This silver-threaded finery—the gift you draped me in.
Dass Kidaan Moddan
Tell me, how do I even begin to return this?
Sada Kita Na Lihaaz Ve Tu Thodda
You didn't have the decency to show even a shred of respect for what we had.
Oye Aashiq Banon Waliya
You, who parade around playing the tragic lover.
O Mitti Ch Ralon Waliya
You, who grind everything precious down to grit and dust.
Jehde Ik De Nahin Oho Tik De Nahin
A drifter who belongs to no one will never find a home anywhere.
Sanu Ki Samjh Dein Asi Bikk De Nahin
Don't misjudge our worth; we aren't some cheap commodity on sale.
Saath Na Chodheingi Teri Badnamiyaan
Your legacy of shame will haunt you like a shadow.
O Tera Naam Si Mein Iko Bass Ratteya
My lips knew only the rhythm of your name.
Badnami Toh Siwa Na Kujh Khatteya
All I harvested from this devotion was public scandal.
Kalle Din Hi Nahin Si Raataan Vi Saanjhiyaan
We didn't just share the daylight; we bared our souls in the dead of night.
Galatiyaan Soch Ke Bethi Pachtoniyaan
I'm left brooding, drowning in the bitter taste of my own errors.
Peed Hanjunaa Di Vi Hun Dil Na Sune
My heart has gone numb; it no longer heeds the sting of my own tears.
Koka Nak Wala Wanga Te Rumaal Oye
The trinkets you gave—my nose ring, these bangles, the silk scarf.
Sutte Khooh Ch Jo Rakhe Si Sambhaal Oye
I’m tossing them all into the depths of a well, though I cherished them once.
Sine Ag Lon Waliya Mitti Ch Ralon Waliya
You arsonist of my heart, you wrecker of all things beautiful.
Mere Mahsoom Dil Se Tum Mehram Zara Aur Dil Behla Lete
My naive heart was yours; you could have played the charade a little longer, my love.
Chodd Jane Wale Gunahe Ishq Mein Mujhe Kuch Aur Kuch Aur Sazaa Detee
Since you're leaving, you could have exacted a harsher penance for the sin of loving you.
