Dokhi Na Lyrics English Translation by Anumita Nadesan | Oaff

Anumita mentions dark clouds and rain to describe how memories return uninvited. She sings, ‘Don’t hurt me, please don’t hurt me,’ a plea that repeats like a breath held too long. The shadows and short nights become physical signs of her restless wait.

Dokhi Na Dokhi NaDon’t hurt me, please don’t hurt me.
Yaad Aana NaDon’t let these memories return.
Yaad Laaye BadraThe dark clouds bring back the memory,
Yaad Laaye Barkhaand the rain brings back the longing.
Roke Se Roke NaI can’t stop them, no matter how hard I try.
Dokhi Na Dokhi NaDon’t hurt me, please don’t hurt me.
Shekh Hobe Le Hobe LeIt’ll all come to an end, it’ll surely end.
Ki Kab Aayi HainI wonder when he’ll finally arrive,
Ab Piya Hamarmy beloved who I wait for.
Ki Kab Aayi HainI wonder when he’ll finally arrive.
Shekh Hobe Le Shekh Hobe LeEverything will end, it’ll all reach its end.
Bujhi Baat O Bhoole Ge LeThe flame of our love went out, and he’s forgotten us.
Savere KeThe shadows of the morning,
Yeh Saaye Reseem to keep playing tricks on me.
Chhal JayeinThey deceive my weary eyes.
Tu Yahan Tu Wahan Tu KahanAre you here? Are you there? Where are you?
Ratiyan BhiEven these short nights,
Sadiyan Sifeel like they last for centuries.
Laagein HaayeIt’s an unbearable weight to carry.
Tu KahanWhere could you be?
Dokhi Na Dokhi NaDon’t hurt me, please don’t hurt me.
Sek Hobe LeIt’s all going to reach its end soon.
Bujhi Baat Au Bhoole Ge LeThe spark has faded, and he’s forgotten our story.
Ab Piya HamarI wonder when my beloved,
Ki Kab Aayi Hainwill finally arrive.
