Race 2’s Lat Lag Gayee (jhankar) Lyrics Translation
The verses introduce a bet between the self and the heart to see which one will win control. This conflict grows when any attempt to suppress the feeling only makes it stronger. This resistance transforms a simple want into a desperate need for the other person.
Beimaan, Dil Bada BeimaanTreacherous, my heart is so treacherous
Hota Nahin Aasaan, Ise Hai SamjhaanaIt’s not easy to make it understand
Beimaan, Dil Bada BeimaanTreacherous, my heart is so treacherous
Tere Liye Shaitan, Meri Na Ik MaanaFor you, it’s a devil; it doesn’t listen to a word I say
Dil Jeete Ya Main Jeetun, Dekhungi, Dekhega TuWe’ll see who wins, my heart or me
Lo, Dil Se Shart Lag GayiAnd so, the bet against my heart is on
Mujhe To Teri Lat Lag Gayi, Lag GayiI’m completely hooked on you, hooked on you
Zamaana Kahe, Lat Ye Galat Lag GayiThe world says this is the wrong kind of addiction
Mujhe To Teri Lat Lag Gayi, Lag GayiI’m completely hooked on you, hooked on you

Rokun Jitna Utni Bagawat HoThe more I try to stop it, the more it rebels
Lagta Hai Aisa, Haal-E-Dil Ki Tum Zaroorat HoIt feels like my heart desperately needs you now
Rokun Jitna Utni Bagawat HoThe more I resist, the stronger the rebellion gets
Lagta Hai Aisa, Haal-E-Dil Ki Tum Zaroorat HoIt feels like my heart desperately needs you now
Mujhko Bhi Tu Zaroori, Doobi Nashe Mein PooriYou’re essential to me too, I’m completely lost in this high
To Kaisi Ye Talab Lag Gayi?So what kind of craving is this that’s taken hold?
Mujhe To Teri Lat Lag Gayi, Lag GayiI’m completely hooked on you, hooked on you
Zamaana Kahe, Lat Ye Galat Lag GayiThe world says this is the wrong kind of addiction
Mujhe To Teri Lat Lag Gayi, Lag GayiI’m completely hooked on you, hooked on you
Zamaana Kahe, Lat Ye Galat Lag GayiThe world says this is the wrong kind of addiction
Mujhe To Teri, La Ah Ah Ah YeahIt’s you I’m, La Ah Ah Ah Yeah

Mujhe To Teri, La Ah Ah Ah YeahIt’s you I’m, La Ah Ah Ah Yeah
La Ah Ah Ah Yeah, La Ah Ah Lat Lag GayiLa Ah Ah Ah Yeah, completely hooked on you
Mujhe To TeriIt’s you I’m…
Ik Tu, Ik Main, Ik Baat Hui ApniOne you, one me, and our own story began
Hairaan Hai Kyun Saara Jahaan Jo Raat Hui Apni?Why is the whole world so shocked that the night became ours?
Ik Tu, Ik Main, Ik Baat Hui ApniJust you and me, that’s when our own thing started
Hairaan Hai Kyun Saara Jahaan Jo Raat Hui Apni?Why is the whole world so shocked that the night became ours?
Mujhse Tu Aa Ke Mila, To Ye Hua Hai SilaYou came and met me, and this was the reward
Ki Sau Tohmat Lag GayiThat a hundred accusations were thrown my way
Mujhe To Teri Lat Lag Gayi, Lag GayiI’m completely hooked on you, hooked on you
Zamaana Kahe, Lat Ye Galat Lag GayiThe world says this is the wrong kind of addiction
Mujhe To Teri Lat Lag Gayi, Lag GayiI’m completely hooked on you, hooked on you
Zamaana Kahe, Lat Ye Galat Lag GayiThe world says this is the wrong kind of addiction
Mujhe To Teri, La Ah Ah Ah YeahIt’s you I’m, La Ah Ah Ah Yeah
La Ah Ah Ah Yeah, La Ah Ah Lat Lag GayiLa Ah Ah Ah Yeah, completely hooked on you
Mujhe To Teri, La Ah Ah Ah YeahIt’s you I’m, La Ah Ah Ah Yeah
La Ah Ah Ah Yeah, La Ah Ah Lat Lag GayiLa Ah Ah Ah Yeah, completely hooked on you
