O Dariya, Mujhe Nahi Jaana Uss Paar
O river, I don’t want to (cross You and) go to the opposite shore/bank
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha (lover/beloved) is coming (right here)
(The above couple of lines are referring to Heer-Ranjha, a famous romantic couple in Indian History,
similar to Romeo-Juliet)
O Dariya, Zara Rokan Do Majhdhaar
O river, stop the currents/waves for a bit
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming
O Dariya, Mujhe Nahi Jaana Uss Paar
O river, I don’t want to go to the opposite shore
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming
O Dariya, Zara Rokan Do Majhdhaar
O river, stop the currents for a bit
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming

O Ho… Woo… O Ho… Woo…

Tair Ke Aaya Nadiya Ve
He swam across the river and came
Pal Pal Jaise Sadiyaan Ve
Every moment passed as if it was a decade
Ishq Bada Hai Imtehaan Tera
Love is such a tough test/exam
Chhaan Li Teri Galiyaan Ve
I’ve searched all Your lanes
Dil Mera Na Mileya Ve
I couldn’t find my heart
Mujhko Bana Le Nigehbaan Tera
Please become my watchful protector

O Dariya, Hai Tujhsa Hi Dildaar
O river, he is big-hearted just as You are
O Ranjha Mera, O Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is indeed
O Dariya, Hai Wohi Mera Ghar Baar
O river, my home is where
Jahaan Ranjha Mera, Jahaan Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha lives/resides

Haath Na Chhoote Ranjha Ve
May our hands not get separated, O Ranjha
Saath Na Toote Ranjha Ve
May we never part each other’s company, O Ranjha
Mainu To Bas Deedaar Tera
I am just yearning a sighting of Yours
Laakh Kaha Na Maana Ve
Even upon insisting a million times it didn’t heed/listen to me
Dil Kaisa Deewana Ve
The heart is such a crazy being
Kabse Kare Hai Intezaar Tera
It’s waiting for You since such a long time

O Dariya, Zara Tham Toh Ja Ek Baar
O river, please stop flowing just once
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming
O Dariya, Mera Peer Mera Haqdaar
O river, he is my Lord, he is the one I belong to
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming

O Dariya, Mujhe Nahi Jaana Uss Paar
O river, I don’t want to go to the opposite shore
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming
O Dariya, Zara Rokan Do Majhdhaar
O river, stop the currents for a bit
Aaya Ranjha Mera, Aaya Ranjha Mera
My Ranjha is coming

O Ho… Woo… O Ho… Woo…
