"This Is A Love Song..."


This is the title song from the 1960 Indian cinema classic Chaudhvin Ka Chand



Lyrics
 
Hindi

Chaudhvin ka chaand ho, yaa aafataab ho
Jo bhi ho tum khudaa ki kasam, laajavaab ho

Chaudhvin ka chaand ho, yaa aafataab ho
Jo bhi ho tum khudaa ki kasam, laajavaab ho
Chaudhvin ka chaand ho

Zulfe hai jaise kaandhe pe baadal jhuke hue
Aankhe hai jaise may ke payaale bhare hue
Masti hai jisame pyaar ki tum, woh sharaab ho
Chaudhvin ka chaand ho

Cheharaa hai jaise jhil me khilataa huaa kaval
Yaa zindagi ke saaj pe chhedi hui gazal
Jaane bahaar tum kisi shaayar kaa khwaab ho
Chaudhvin ka chaand ho

Hotho pe khelati hai tabassum ki bijaliyaan
Sajade tumhaari raah me karati hai kaikashaan
Duniyaa-e-husn-o-ishq kaa tum hi shabaab ho
Chaudhvin ka chaand ho, yaa aafataab ho.

  
Chaudhvin Ka Chand Ho
English

Are you the full moon, or the sun?
Whatever you are, I swear to God, you are beyond compare!
Your hair is like a soft cloud kissing your shoulders
Your eyes are like two goblets
And you are the wine that fills them with a zest for love.

Your face is like a beautiful lake on which your smile is a blooming lotus flower
Or, it is like an ode from the instrument of life
My dear, you are a poet's dream.

Your smile is lightning upon your lips
Upon your entrance, any group of people will fall to the ground, overwhelmed.
Of all the beauties in the world, you are the epitome.
Are you are a full moon, or the sun?

Whatever you are, my God you are incomparable!
