Lyrics of Shehar Ke Dukandaron - शहर के दुकानदारों, कारोबार ए उल्फ़त में

shehar ke dukandaro, karobaar e ulfat mein
shehar ke dukandaro, karobaar e ulfat mein
sud kya, diya kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro

dil ke daam kitne hain
khwab kitne mehnge hain
aur naqdejaa kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro

koi kaise milta hai, phool kaise khilta hai
aankh kaise jhukti hai, saans kaise rukti hai
koi kaise milta hai, phool kaise khilta hai
aankh kaise jhukti hai, saans kaise rukti hai
kaise reh nikalti hai, kaise baate chalti hai
kaise reh nikalti hai, kaise baate chalti hai
shouq ki zaba kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro

wasl ka suku kya hai, hijr ka junu kya hai
husn ka fusu kya hai, ishq ke daru kya hai
wasl ka suku kya hai, hijr ka junu kya hai
husn ka fusu kya hai, ishq ke daru kya hai
tum marije daanai, maslhat ke saidayi
tum marije daanai, maslhat ke saidayi
raahe gumrahan kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro

zakhm kaise phalte hain, daag kaise jalte hain
dard kaise hota hain, koi kaise rota hain
zakhm kaise phalte hain, daag kaise jalte hain
dard kaise hota hain, koi kaise rota hain
ashq kya hai, nalae kya
dasht kya hai, chhale kya
ashq kya hai, nalae kya
dasht kya hai, chhale kya
aah ka fuga kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro

jaanta hu main tumko, zaak e shaiyri bhi hai
shakhsiyat sajane mein, ik ye maahiri bhi hai
jaanta hu main tumko, zaak e shaiyri bhi hai
shakhsiyat sajane mein, ik ye maahiri bhi hai
phir bhi harf chunte ho, sirf lafz sunte ho
phir bhi harf chunte ho, sirf lafz sunte ho
inke darmiyaan kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro

shehar ke dukandaro, karobaar e ulfat mein
sud kya, diya kya hai
tum na jaan paaoge
shehar ke dukandaro, shehar ke dukandaro


lyrics of song Shehar Ke Dukandaron

Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Shehar Ke Dukandaron
Merchants of the city, in the trade of love,
Merchants of the city, in the trade of love,
What is profit, what is sacrifice?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.

What is the price of a heart?
How expensive are dreams?
And what is the soul's coin?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.

How does one meet, how does a flower bloom?
How do eyes lower, how does breath cease?
How does one meet, how does a flower bloom?
How do eyes lower, how does breath cease?
How do paths emerge, how do words flow?
How do paths emerge, how do words flow?
What is the language of desire?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.

What is the peace of union, the madness of separation?
What is the enchantment of beauty, the essence of love?
What is the peace of union, the madness of separation?
What is the enchantment of beauty, the essence of love?
You are patients of wisdom, devotees of prudence,
You are patients of wisdom, devotees of prudence,
What are the paths of the lost?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.

How do wounds fester, how do scars burn?
How does pain exist, how does one weep?
How do wounds fester, how do scars burn?
How does pain exist, how does one weep?
What are tears, what are laments?
What is the desert, what are blisters?
What are tears, what are laments?
What is the desert, what are blisters?
What is the echo of a sigh?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.

I know you, you are connoisseurs of poetry too,
In adorning personality, you possess this mastery.
I know you, you are connoisseurs of poetry too,
In adorning personality, you possess this mastery.
Yet you choose letters, you only listen to words,
Yet you choose letters, you only listen to words,
What lies between them?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.

Merchants of the city, in the trade of love,
What is profit, what is sacrifice?
You will never know.
Merchants of the city, merchants of the city.
