Dil KI GIRAH KHOL DO ... A SONG ON LOVE SUNG BY LATA MANJESHKAR AND LATE MANNADAY FOR THE FILM "RAAT AUR DIN"(NIGHT OR DAY ) SCREENED IN 1967
MUSIC-SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN
CAST OF THE FILM-LATE NARGIS,PRADEEP KUMAR AND FEROZ KHAN
TRANSLATION OF THE SONG
Open the knots of your heart,
And all the layers that keep us apart.
Don’t stay quiet, come along.
For God’s sake let’s sing a song.
We are not strangers anymore, you see.
Oh! Come, come close to me.
Let the hearts meet this instance.
Let all constraints pass.
Let all chasms and distance
Drown in this glass.
I will smile into your eyes happily
If you promise to smile back at me.
We are no more ‘you and me’ it seems.
We have become something else.
Lost in the sparkling realm of dreams
We dance to these enchanting bells.
We need not ask anyone for direction
And may not tell them our destination.
Tomorrow someone may ask us
What happened to you yesterday?
Our hearts instruct us to move on thus.
Let us not look back today.
Let’s not call or try to find
people who are left far behind.
But do open the knots of your heart
And all the layers that keep us apart.
We are not strangers anymore, you see.
Oh come, come close to me…
