Aaja Nindiya Lyrics English Translation by Ankur Tewari | Aria Nanji
Ankur Tewari opens with a simple request to ‘take me back there again’ (Aaja Nindiya), longing for a shared dream. He asks sleep to settle within his eyes instead of tormenting him. The poet describes being held in loving arms, completely lost in the peace of dreams.
ख्वाबों में थेWe were in our dreams,
हम कल जहांwhere we were yesterday.
ले चल मुझे फिर से वहांTake me back there again,
हम तुम मिलेwhere you and I met.
थे कल जहांWhere we were yesterday,
आ चल चलें फिर से वहांcome, let’s go back there again.
आजा निंदिया रेCome to me, oh sleep,
आंखों में समा रेand settle within my eyes.
हमें ना सता रेDon’t torment me anymore,
कहां तू लापताwhere have you disappeared?
आजा निंदिया रेCome to me, oh sleep,
आंखों में समा रेand settle within my eyes.
हमें ना सता रेDon’t torment me anymore,
कहां तू लापताwhere have you disappeared?
हम सो गएWe’ve fallen asleep,
तेरी बाहों मेंwrapped in your arms.
और खो गए इन ख्वाबों में यहांAnd we’re lost in these dreams here,
ख्वाबों में यहांlost in these dreams,
बाहों में यहांheld in these arms.
आजा निंदिया रेCome to me, oh sleep,
आंखों में समा रेSettle within my eyes,
हमें ना सता रेdon’t torment me anymore,
कहां तू लापताwhere have you disappeared?
आजा निंदिया रेCome to me, oh sleep,
आंखों में समा रेSettle within my eyes,
हमें ना सता रेdon’t torment me anymore,
कहां तू लापताwhere have you disappeared?
