Mohammad Faiz’s Matt Jaao Lyrics English (with Translation) • Mat Jao
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
Ke Main Aur Gham Akele Ham Mar Jayenge Sanam
Because this sorrow and I will be left all alone, and I will die, my love.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Please don’t leave, I’m begging you, don’t go.
Mujhe Samjho Ya Samjhao Ki Tumko Meri Hai Kasam
Whether you understand me or make me understand, know that you are bound by my vow.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
Judai Seh Sakein Itna Dam Nahi
I don’t have enough strength to endure this separation.
Tum Jaoge Toh Rahenge Ham Nahi
If you leave, I will not survive.
Bada Royenge, Na Soyenge Aur Fir Tod Denge Dum
I will weep endlessly, I will not sleep, and then I will finally break.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
Ke Main Aur Gham Akele Ham Mar Jayenge Sanam
Because this sorrow and I will be left all alone, and I will die, my love.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Please don’t leave, I’m begging you, don’t go.
Koi Gham Hai Toh Baat Lo
If you are carrying some sorrow, then please share it.
Khafa Ho Gar Toh Daat Lo
If you are upset with me, then go ahead and scold me.
Magar Ye Na Kaho Hamse Akele Umar Kaat Lo
But do not tell me to spend the rest of my life by myself.
Meri Aankhon Mein Toh Dekho
Please, just look into my eyes.
Kitna Ro Rahe Hain Ham
See how much I am weeping.
Uthke Ja Rahe Ho Tum
You are getting up to leave,
Ke Pagal Ho Rahe Hain Ham
and I am losing my mind because of it.
Mere Ho Jo Mera Socho Ik Baari Kam Se Kam
If you are truly mine, then think about me, at least for a moment.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
Ke Main Aur Gham Akele Ham Mar Jayenge Sanam
Because this sorrow and I will be left all alone, and I will die, my love.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Please don’t leave, I’m begging you, don’t go.
Tumko Mil Jayenge Hazaar O Sagar
You will find thousands of others, O ‘Sagar’ ‘a name that means ocean, often used as a poet’s signature’.
Ham Na Kar Payenge Ab Pyaar O Sagar
But I will never be able to love again, O ‘Sagar’.
Buri Hai Ye Bahot Duniya
This world is a very cruel place.
Tu Mujhpe Kyu Taras Na Khaye
Why don’t you take some pity on me?
Tum Hi Badal Jaoge Toh Fir Ham Kahan Jayein
If you yourself change, then where will I possibly go?
Na Ghar Todo Na Yun Chhodo
Don’t shatter our home, don’t just leave like this.
Karo Thodi Si Sharam
Have a little shame.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
Ke Main Aur Gham Akele Ham Mar Jayenge Sanam
Because this sorrow and I will be left all alone, and I will die, my love.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
Mujhe Samjho Ya Samjhao Ki Tumko Meri Hai Kasam
Whether you understand me or make me understand, know that you are bound by my vow.
Mat Jao, Mat Jao
Don’t go, please don’t go.
