Tere Layi Lyrics English Translation – Nirvair Pannu

Tere Layi Main Jo Likheya Si
The words I wrote just for you,

Tu Parheya Nahi Navaan Apna
You never read them because you had found someone new.

Akkhan Ne Hor Koyi Takkeya Nahi
Since then, my eyes have never looked at anyone else.

Haye Jaccheya Nahi Sama Apna
Alas, perhaps we were never destined to spend our time together.

Main Sambheya Ae Rakkhan Kajj Ke
I’ve hidden and carefully preserved these memories.

Ve Kyon Tur Giyon ‘Kalliyan Chhad Ke
Why did you leave me all alone?

Naale Lai Giyon Ve Jind Kadd Ke
And you took my life with you as you left.

Ve Kyon Tur Giyon ‘Kalliyan Chhad Ke
Why did you leave me all alone?

Oh Aadat Si Teri Bhull Gaya
Was it your habit, or have you forgotten?

Hovegan Tu Bataan Kariyan
We used to talk for hours,

Odon ‘Kattheyan Ne Hath Farh Ke
While holding each other’s hands.

Akkhan Parhiyan Akkhan Parhiyan
I read your eyes—I truly read them.

Ve Kyon Suttdain Aape Chukk Ke
Why do you accept me only to throw me away yourself?

Je Tu Kehnde Main Mann Launga
If you say so, I’ll accept everything.

Eh Kufraan Nu Eh Duniyaan Hi Aan
This world is filled with beautiful lies.

Teri Khushbu Nu Chakkeya Si
I had embraced your sweet fragrance.

Tu Dasseya Si Eh Duniyaan I Aan
You were the one who told me this is how the world works.

Main Rona Aen Gale Lagg Ke
I want to hold you tightly and cry.

Ve Kyon Tur Giyon ‘Kalliyan Chhad Ke
Why did you leave me all alone?

Naale Lai Giyon Ve Jind Kadd Ke
And you took my life with you as you left.

It was my love for you, not hatred.

If the evil eye falls on us, let me be the one to fade away.
