Lautungi Main Tere Liye: Lyrics Translation (Ek Thi Daayan)

Movie: Ek Thi Daayan
Music: Vishal Bhardwaj
Lyrics: Gulzar
Singer: Rekha Bharadwaj

Sehmi sehmi raaton mein
Sehemi sehemi chalti hoon..
Lautoongi main tere liye
Tere liye
jaaneya ve..

In fearful nights,
I walk fearfully..
I'll return back for you,
For you, my love..

Kaali amaavas ke peechhe khadi hoon main
Saalon ke jaalon mein kab se padi hoon main
Bechain hoon tere liye
Ho jaaneya..

I am standing behind the dark moonless night,
I am stuck in the webs of years since long..
I am restless to get you.. O my love..

Jab doobega din, deeyaa jalaana tum
Aavaaz de ke phir mujh ko bulaana tum
Lautoongi main tere liye.. Jaaneya ve..
Tere liye saathi mere janeya ve..

When the days ends, you light a lamp,
and then call out and invite me..
I'll come back, for you.. O my love..
For you, O my companion, my life..

Veeraan peDon ke saaye jab chalte hain
Maasoom roohon ko andhere daste hain
Darti hoon main tere liye,
O ho jaaneya..

When the shadows of deserted trees walk,
Darkness bites innocent souls..
I'm afraid for you..
O my love..

Jab raatein pighlein, hook lagana tum
Aakaash ka koi konaa uthaana tum
Lautoongi main tere liye jaaneya ve..
Tere liye saathi mere jaaneya ve

When nights melt, call out for me..
lift some corner of sky (with your voice; make yourself heard)..
I'll come back, for you.. O my love..
For you, O my companion, O my life..
