Arijit Singh, Diljit Dosanjh, Sonu Nigam, Vishal Mishra – Ghar Kab Aaoge (from Border 2) Lyrics in English (Translation)

Sandese Aate Hai Humein Tadpate Hai
Messages arrive and make me restless.
Jo Chitthi Aati Hai Woh Pooche Jaati Hai
Every letter that comes keeps asking me.
Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge
When will you come home, when will you come home?
Likho Kab Aaoge
Write back and tell us when you will return.
Ki Tum Bin Ye Ghar Soona Soona Hai
Because without you, this house feels empty.

Sandese Aate Hai Humein Tadpate Hai
Messages arrive and make me restless.
Jo Chitthi Aati Hai Woh Pooche Jaati Hai
Every letter that comes keeps asking me.
Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge
When will you come home, when will you come home?
Likho Kab Aaoge
Write back and tell us when you will return.
Ki Tum Bin Ye Dil Soona Soona Hai
Because without you, this heart feels empty.

Ye Dil Jo Barson Se Tha Khaali Khaali Sa
This heart, which had been empty for years,
Kisi Ke Aane Se Saja Diwali Sa
now feels bright and festive because someone has come.
Jage Hai Darwaaze Kisi Ki Aahat Se
The doors feel awake with the sound of someone’s footsteps.
Savera Hota Hai Kisi Ki Karwat Se
Morning seems to arrive with someone turning in their sleep.

Main Sochta Karta Hoon Yahi Tanhaai Mein
I keep thinking about this in my loneliness,
Ke Chanda Utrega Meri Angnaai Mein
that one day the moon will come down into my courtyard.
Naseebon Wali Ne Kaan Ki Baali Ne
The lucky one, the earring in her ear,
Chauth Ki Thaali Ne
the ritual plate of the fourth day,
Aur Puchha Hai Mehndi Ki Laali Ne
and even the red color of henna has asked,
Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge
when will you come home, when will you come home?
Likho Kab Aaoge
Write and tell us when you will return.
Ki Tum Bin Ye Dil Soona Soona Hai
Because without you, this heart feels empty.

Sandese Aate Hai Hume Tadpate Hai
Messages arrive and make us restless.
Jo Chitthi Aati Hai Vo Puche Jaati Hai
Every letter that comes keeps asking the same thing.
Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge
When will you come home, when will you come home?
Likho Kab Aaoge
Write back and tell us when you will return.
Ki Tum Bin Ye Ghar Soona Soona Hai
Because without you, this house feels empty.

Ye Pucho Aankhon Ke Jhalkte Paani Se
Ask the tears that spill from the eyes,
Bichadte Hai Koi Kahan Aasani Se
does anyone really part so easily?
Main Pichhe Chhod Aaya Duaen Karti Maa
I left behind a mother who keeps praying for me.
Ki Usse Bhi Pyari Mujhe Ye Dharti Maa
This motherland is just as dear to me as she is.

Kisi Ne Dheere Se Kaha Tha Laut Aana
Someone softly told me to come back,
Main Raasta Dekhungi Mujhe Na Tadpana
“I will wait for you, don’t make me suffer.”
Jaagti Raaton Ne Ankahi Baaton Ne
Sleepless nights and unspoken words,
Adhoore Vaadon Ne Aur Poocha Hai Uski Yaadon Ne
unfinished promises and her memories keep asking me,
Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge
when will you come home, when will you come home?
Likho Kab Aaoge
Write and tell us when you will return.
Ki Tum Bin Ye Dil Soona Soona Hai
Because without you, this heart feels empty.
Badi Yaad Aati Hai Kisi Ki Raaton Mein
I miss someone deeply during the nights.
Kalai Resham Si Abhi Hai Haathon Mein
The softness of their wrist still feels like silk in my hands.
Shayari Jaisi Voh Labon Pe Rehti Hai
Poetry seems to live on their lips.
Mohabbat Jaisi Voh Ragon Mein Behti Hai
Love flows through their veins.

Jo Gudiyon Se Khele Vo Gudiyaan Yaad Aayein
The dolls she used to play with come to mind.
Ki Baaton Baaton Mein Usi Ki Baat Aaye
In every conversation, it somehow turns to her.
Mere Dildaaron Ne Gali Bazaaron Ne Ki Chitthi Taaron Ne
My loved ones, the streets and markets, even letters and telegrams,
Aur Poocha Hai Mere Yaaron Ne
and my friends have all asked me,
Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge Ki Ghar Kab Aaoge
when will you come home, when will you come home?
Likho Kab Aaoge
Write and tell us when you will return.
Ki Tum Bin Ye Dil Soona Soona Hai
Because without you, this heart feels empty.

Ae Guzarne Wali Hawa Bata
O passing wind, tell me,
Mera Itna Kaam Karegi Kya
will you do this small favor for me?
Mujhe Chhod Ke Jo Chala Gaya
The one who left me behind,
Usse Dhoondh Lau
can you help me find them?

Koi Rehguzar Ya Koi Gali
No road and no street,
Mujhe Aaj Tak Tau Nahi Mili
I have found none till today,
Jo Mita Sake Ye Faasla
that can erase this distance,
Jo Mita Sake Ye Faasla
that can truly bring us closer again.
Meri Sari Jawani Le Gaya
They took away all of my youth,
Aur Aankh Mein Paani De Gaya
and left tears in my eyes.
Jise Dohraunga Umr Bhar
A story I will repeat my whole life,
Voh Aisi Kahani De Gaya
that is the kind of story they gave me.

Ae Guzarne Wali Hawa Tujhe
O passing wind, I beg you,
Hai Kasam Na Rula Aise Mujhe
please do not make me cry like this.
Main Kahan Se Laun Vo Dil Bata
Tell me, where can I find a heart
Jisse Ho Qubool Ye Alvida
that can accept this goodbye?
Main Vapas Aaunga Main Vapas Aaunga
I will come back, I will come back.
Fir Apne Gaon Mein Pyar Ki Chhaon Mein
Back to my village, under the shade of love.

Tarasti Aankhon Se Kisi Ki Baahon Se
From longing eyes, from someone’s arms,
Ke Ghar Ke Raahon Se Kiya Jo Wada Tha Vo Nibhaunga
I will fulfill the promise I made on the paths leading home.

Main Wapas Aaunga
I will come back.
Main Wapas Aaunga
I will come back.
Main Wapas Aaunga
I will come back.
Main Wapas Aaunga
I will come back.
