Jiyein Kyun
Papon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na phone pe bulaoge
Na shaam ki karaari chai, labbon se yun pilaoge
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na din dhale sataoge
Na raat ki nashili bye se neendh mein jagaoge
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, ye raat baaki hai
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, saath baaki hai
Gaye tum gaye hum tham gaye har baat baaki hai
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na dooriyaan dhikhaoge
Na thaam ke woh josh mein yun hosh se udaoge
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na jhooth se sunaoge
Na rooth ke sirhaane mein, remote ko chupaoge
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, ye raat baaki hai
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, saath baaki hai
Gaye tum gaye hum tham gaye har baat baaki hai
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
Aankh bhi tham gayi, na thaki
Raat bhi na baati, na kati
Raat bhi chedti marrti
Neendh bhi lutt gayi, chiin gayi
Raat bhi na sahi, na rahi
Raat bhi laazmi, zaalmi
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, ye raat baaki hai
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, saath baaki hai
Gaye tum gaye hum tham gaye har baat baaki hai
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na phone pe bulaoge
Na shaam ki karaari chai, labbon se yun churaoge

Line by Line Meaning
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na phone pe bulaoge
You won't come, you won't invite, nor will you call
Na shaam ki karaari chai, labbon se yun pilaoge
You won't share the bitter evening tea by feeding from your lips
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na din dhale sataoge
You won't come, you won't invite, nor will you torment at the end of day
Na raat ki nashili bye se neendh mein jagaoge
You won't wake up from the drunken sleep of night
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, ye raat baaki hai
You left, but why did the night stay?
Gaye tum gaye ho kyun, saath baaki hai
You left, but why did the companionship stay?
Gaye tum gaye hum tham gaye har baat baaki hai
You left, and we stopped, but there are still many things left
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
If you left, then why do we live?
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na dooriyaan dikhao ge
You won't come, you won't invite, nor will you show the distance
Na thaam ke woh josh mein yun hosh se udaoge
You won't control that enthusiasm and lose your senses
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na jhooth se sunaoge
You won't come, you won't invite, nor will you hear lies
Na rooth ke sirhaane mein, remote ko chupaoge
You won't sulk and hide the remote control under the pillow
Aankh bhi tham gayi, na thaki
Eyes stopped, but didn't tire
Raat bhi na baati, na kati
The night didn't pass or end
Raat bhi chedti marrti
The night keeps hurting and teasing
Neendh bhi lutt gayi, chhin gayi
Sleep was stolen, taken away
Raat bhi na sahi, na rahi
The night was neither right nor wrong
Raat bhi laazmi, zaalmi
The night was obligatory, cruel
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
If you left, then why do we live?
Gaye kyun toh jiyein kyun
If you left, then why do we live?
Na aaye ho, na aaoge, na shaam ki karaari chai, labbon se yun churaoge
You won't come, you won't invite, nor will you steal the bitter evening tea from your lips
