Raina Lyrics English Translation by Arijit Singh
The narrator describes a woman who is ‘a little awake, a little lost,’ her silence echoing the night’s emptiness. Saraiya mentions her dark kohl and bindi, comparing her to the moon hidden in clouds. The singer captures her laughter, soft as silk, yet her words are sharp and unspoken.
Raina, uske jaisi hi tu baawriO night, you are as restless as she is,
Raina, raina, kitni khamoshiyon se bharinight, O night, you are filled with so much silence.
Thodi jaagi si, khoyi khoyi siA little awake, a little lost,
Sard si, farsh pe soyi sicold, and sleeping on the floor,
Gum ho jaise chainaas if all peace has vanished.
Raina, uske jaisi hi tu baawriO night, you are as restless as she is.
Raina, rainaNight, O night.
Naino mein kajal kaara daar ke wohWearing dark kohl in her eyes,
Chhoti si bindiya sajaayeadorned with a small bindi,
Chupke jaise kaheen baadalon meinshe hides like the moon in the clouds,
Chaand tera naina churaayestealing your gaze away.
Hansti resham si, khurduri baateinLaughing like silk, yet speaking rough words,
Hansti resham si, khurduri baateinlaughing like silk, yet speaking rough words.
Subah ho jaaye phir bhiEven when the morning arrives,
Na kehti woh jo hai kehnashe still doesn’t say what she needs to say.
Raina, uske jaisi hi tu baawriO night, you are as restless as she is,
Raina, raina, kitni khamoshiyon se bharinight, O night, you are filled with so much silence.
Thodi jaagi si, khoyi khoyi siA little awake, a little lost,
Sard si, farsh pe soyi si, gum ho jaise chainacold, sleeping on the floor, as if all peace has vanished.
Raina, uske jaisi hi tu baawriO night, you are as restless as she is.
Raina, rainaNight, O night.
