Subject: Sajda: Tujhse Milne Ki Saza Denge ...

Hi folks

The 11th in the Sajda series, sung by Jagjit Singh. Enjoy! 4 more to go.

Poet : Danish Aligarhi

1. tujhse milne ki saza denge tere shaher ke log
yeh wafaaon ka sila denge tere shaher ke log

[The people of your city will punish me for meeting you
The people of your city will give me an outcome/result for my loyal feelings]

2. kya khabar thi tere milne pe qayamat hogi
mujhko deewana bana denge tere shaher ke log

[I did not know that it would be "qayaamat"/day of judgement on meeting you
The people of your city will make me a madman]

3. tujhse milne na diya shaher mein rahne na diya
aur kya jaan-e-wafa denge tere shaher ke log

[I was not allowed to meet you, I was not allowed to stay in the city
What else, my love / my beloved, will the people of your city give me]

4. tere nazron se girane ke liye jaan-e-hayaat
mujhko mujrim bhi bana denge tere shaher ke log

[To make me fall from your grace (to make me embarassed in front of your eyes), my beloved
The people of your city will also make me a criminal]

Dictionary : sila - result; jaan-e-hayaat - beloved

regards

Ramesh
