Ras birha birhaThe essence of ‘birha’ longing
Har rang birha birha birhaEvery color is ‘birha’ longing
Sab jag birha birha birha birhaThe entire world is ‘birha’ longing
Mora ang-ang birhaEvery part of my being is ‘birha’ longing
Kaisi udaasi saansein ruaan-siWhat deep sadness, my breaths are like wisps of smoke,
Khaara-khaara saavan dhoop hai dhuaan-siThe monsoon feels salty, and the sunlight’s like a haze
Kis se kahein tere bin na hai chainaWho should I tell that I’ve no peace without you,
Nindiya ye bairi roothi hui rainaSleep is my enemy and the night’s turned away
Yaad sajan ki aaye haayThe memory of my beloved haunts me, oh
Yaad sajan ki aayeThe memory of my beloved returns
Yaad sajan ki aaye haayMemories of my love pierce my heart, oh
Yaad sajan ki aayeThe thought of my dear one washes over me
Kaisi udaasi saansein ruaan-siSuch heavy sorrow, my breath’s fragile like mist,
Khaara-khaara saavan dhoop hai dhuaan-siThe rains taste of salt, and the sun’s just a blur
Kis se kahein tere bin na hai chainaWho can I confess to that I haven’t found rest,
Nindiya ye bairi roothi hui rainaWhile sleep’s my foe and the night’s grown cold
Yaad sajan ki aaye haayThe ache of my beloved’s memory returns, oh
Yaad sajan ki aayeMy beloved’s memory comes flooding back
Ras birha birhaThe flavor of ‘birha’ longing
Har rang birha birha birhaEvery hue is ‘birha’ separation
Sab jag birha birha birha birhaThe whole universe is ‘birha’ separation
Mora ang-ang birhaMy entire soul is consumed by ‘birha’ separation
Roothi hui purva ab ke jo aayeIf the resentful eastern wind returns this time,
De doon main usko tooti-si duaayeinI’ll offer it my shattered prayers
Ja ke sajan ko haal mera kehnaGo and tell my beloved how I’m faring,
Dukh hua bairi chaar guna kehnaTell him the pain’s multiplied four times over
Paas hai woh phir bhi dooriyan hain kaisiHe’s close, yet why’s there such a distance,
Aankhein baras ke sookh gayi aisiMy eyes have rained until they’ve run dry
Yaad sajan ki aaye haayI’m haunted by thoughts of my beloved, oh
Yaad sajan ki aayeMy dear one’s memory returns
Ras birha birhaThe deep taste of ‘birha’ longing
Har rang birha birha birhaEvery shade is ‘birha’ longing
Sab jag birha birha birha birhaThe entire world is ‘birha’ longing
Mora ang-ang birhaEvery fiber of my being is ‘birha’ longing
Ras birha birhaThe essence of ‘birha’ longing
Har rang birha birha birhaEvery color is ‘birha’ longing
Sab jag birha birha birha birhaThe entire world is ‘birha’ longing
Mora ang-ang birhaEvery part of my body is ‘birha’ longing
The meaning of ‘Yaad Sajan Ki Aaye’ is the unbearable ache of missing a loved one. The lyrics show how every color, every breath, and every moment is consumed by this yearning.
