MAIN AGAR KAHOON
Lyrics – Javed Akhtar
Singer – Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal
Arranged by – Jackie V.
Guitar – Chintu Singh
Tum ko paaya hai toh jaise khoya hoon
Having found you, I feel I’ve lost myself
Kehna chahoon bhi toh tumse kya kahoon
Even if I could, I wouldn’t know what to say
Kisi zabaan mein bhi woh lavz hi nahin
There are no words in any language
Ke jinme tum ho kya tumhein bata sakoon
That I can use to describe you
Main agar kahoon tumsa haseen
If I were to say that a beauty like you
Qayanat mein nahin hai kahin
Cannot be found in the whole world
Tareef yeh bhi toh sach hai kuch bhi nahin
This compliment, in truth, would be nothing
Tum ko paaya hai toh jaise khoya hoon….
Shokiyon mein doobi yeh adayein
Your michievious style and grace
Chehre se jhalki hui hai
Spills out from your face
Zulf ki ghani ghani ghataein
Your thick cloud of hair
Shaan se dhalki hui hai
Rests on your shoulders with pride
Lehrata aanchal hai jaise badal
Your scarf floats in the wind like a cloud
Bahon mein bhari hai jaise chandni
Your arms are filled with moonlight
Roop ki chandni…..
moonlight of beauty
Main agar kahoon yeh dilkashi
If I were to say this splendour
Hai nahin kahin na hogi kabhi
Cannot be found anywhere and never will be
Tareef yeh bhi toh sach hai kuch bhi nahin
This compliment, in truth, would be nothing
Tum ko paaya hai toh jaise khoya hoon….
Tum hue meherbaan
It’s your generosity
Toh hai yeh dastaan
That’s led to this story
Ab tumhara mera ek hai caravan
Now our paths are the same
Tum jahan main wahaan
Where you are, there I’ll be
Main agar kahoon humsafar meri
If I were to say, my soulmate
Apsara ho tum ya koi pari
That you’re a nymph from heaven, a fairy
Tareef yeh bhi toh sach hai kuch bhi nahin
This compliment, in truth, would be nothing
Tum ko paaya hai toh jaise khoya hoon
Having found you, I feel I’ve lost myself
Kehna chahoon bhi toh tumse kya kahoon
Even if I could, I wouldn’t know what to say
Kisi zabaan mein bhi woh lavz hi nahin
There are no words in any language
Ke jinme tum ho kya tumhein bata sakoon
That I can use to describe you
Main agar kahoon tumsa haseen
If I were to say that a beauty like you
Qayanat mein nahin hai kahin
Cannot be found in the whole world
Tareef yeh bhi toh sach hai kuch bhi nahin
This compliment, in truth, would be nothing
