Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
O naive Heart
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Arzoo Kya Hai?
What are you yearning for?
Justaju Kya Hai?
What are you searching for?
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Arzoo Kya Hai? 
Justaju Kya Hai?
hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmmmm
hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmmmm
hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmmmm
hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmmmm
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan




Hum Bhatakte Hai
I wander
Kyun Bhatakte Hai Dasht-o-Sahara Mein?
Why do I wander in the wild and desert?
Aaisa Lagta Hai Mauj Pyaasi Hai Apne Dariya Mein
It is as if (I'm a) wave (that) is thirsty in it's own river.
Kaisi Uljhan Hai, Kyun Yeh Uljhan Hai?
What is this entanglement, why is there this entanglement?
Ek Saaya Sa Rooh-ba-Rooh Kya Hai
There is a shadow upon me  (rooh-ba-rooh, literally soul to soul or face to face).
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Arzoo Kya Hai?
Justaju Kya Hai?


Kya Qayamat Hai, Kya Museebat Hai
What a crisis, what a hardship!
Keh Nahin Sagte Kis Ka Armaan Hai
 I can't say for whom I long.
Zindagi Jaise Khoyi Khoyi Hai, Hairaan Hairaan Hai
It's as if life itself is lost, bewildered


Yeh Zameen Chup Hai, Aasman Chup Hai
This land is silent, the sky is silent.


Phir Yeh Dhadkhan Si Charzoo Kya Hai
So why is this heartbeat (heard) everywhere (in all four directions)?
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan



Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Aaisi Raahon Mein, Kitne Kaante Hai?
On these paths/roads, how many thorns are there?
Arzooun Ne
Arzooun Ne Har Kisi Dil Ko Dard Bante Hai
Desires have meted out  pain to every person's heart
Kitne Ghayal Hai? Kitne Bismil Hai?
How many are wounded, how many are sacrificed?
Eis Khudai Mein, Ek Tu Kya Hai?
 In this existence (providence), what are you alone?
(What is your suffering compared to the suffering of the world?)
Ek Tu Kya Hai?
Ek Tu Kya Hai?
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
Aye Dil-e-Nadaan
