o mere dil ke chain (oh my heart's ease)
from the movie, “mere jeevan saathi”, written by majrooh sultanpuri, sung by kishore kumar and composed by r. d. burman
o mere dil ke chain
oh my heart's ease
chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye
please pray that my heart eases
o mere dil ke chain
oh my heart's ease
chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye
please pray that my heart eases
apna hi saya dekh ke tum jaan-e-jahaan sharma gaye
you glanced at your own reflection and blushed, my love in the entire world
abhi to ye pehli manzil hai, tum to abhi se ghabra gaye
this is only the first destination, and you are already so scared
mera kya hoga, socho to zara!
what will become of me, think of that a little!
haaye, aise na aahein bhara kijiye
oh my, please don't sigh and gasp like that
o mere dil ke chain
oh my heart's ease
chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye
please pray that my heart eases
aapka armaañ, aapka naam, mera taraana aur nahi
except yearning for you and your name, my ballad consists of nothing else
inn jhukti palkoñ ke siva, dil ka thikaana aur nahi
except those lowering eyelashes, my heart does not rest anywhere else
jachta hi nahi aankhon mein koyi!
nobody suits my eyes except you, what to do!
dil tum ko hi chaahe to kya kijiye?
if the heart only has a liking to you, what to do?
o mere dil ke chain
oh my heart's ease
chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye
please pray that my heart eases
yuñ to akela bhi aksar, gir ke sambhal sakta hu main
if i am alone, i can stumble and get up all on my own
tum jo pakad lo haath mera, duniya badal sakta hu main
if you put your hand in mine, i can change the whole world
manga hai tumhe duniya ke liye
i want you for the sake of the world
ab khud hi sanam, faisla kijiye
now my beloved, decide for yourself
o mere dil ke chain
oh my heart's ease
chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye
please pray that my heart eases
o mere dil ke chain
oh my heart's ease
o, mere…
oh, my…
