[in Turkish]
On the way to Uskudar, rain started to pour [x2]
My clerk's coat was long, and its hem became muddied [x2]
इश्क़ किनारा तू था यारा
इश्क़ किनारा तू
[ both lines x2 ]
देख के तुझ को ज़िन्दा थी मैं
नैन नज़ारा तू
मेरी सारी तन्हाई में प्यार सहारा तू
You were my love shore, beloved
my love shore
[both lines x2]
By seeing you, I was alive
You, the sight of my eyes
In my whole loneliness, love, you were a relief
इश्क़ किनारा तू था यारा
इश्क़ किनारा तू
[ both lines x2 ]
You were my love shore, beloved
my love shore
[both lines x2]
मैं तेरी बातों में खो जाती थी
फिर तेरे जैसे ही हो जाती थी
सपने तेरे ओढ़े सो जाती थी
जाने खोने से मैं क्या पाती थी
I got lost in your words,
then, I became just like you
I fell asleep covered in a dream of you
Who knows what I am gaining, by losing myself
इश्क़ किनारा तू था यारा
इश्क़ किनारा तू
[ both lines x2 ]
You were my love shore, beloved
my love shore
[both lines x2]
कच्चे धागों जैसे ये नाते हैं
पर लगते ही पंछी उड़ जाते हैं
जीवन में ये लम्हे क्यूँ आते हैं
क्या यह सोचा जीता या हारा तू
These relationships are like weak strings
Just as pinions show, birds fly away
Why do these moments come to the life?
Therefore, did you think you won, or lost?
इश्क़ किनारा तू था यारा
इश्क़ किनारा तू
[ both lines x2 ]
देख के तुझ को ज़िन्दा थी मैं
नैन नज़ारा तू
मेरी सारी तन्हाई में प्यार सहारा तू
You were my love shore, beloved
my love shore
[both lines x2]
By seeing you, I was alive
You, the sight of my eyes
In my whole loneliness, love, you were a relief
कितना जागी सोई इश्क़ अंदर में
हँसते हँसते रोई इश्क़ अंदर में
अब आ के खोई हूँ इश्क़ अंदर में
How often I lay down awake, within (your) love
Smiling, I cried, within (your) love
Now, I have came to be lost, , within (your) love

About this song
- Singers
- Zoe Viccaji, Sumru Ağıryürüyen
- Show
- Coke Studio (2013)
ishq kinaaraa (Hindi: इश्क़ किनारा, Urdu: عِشْق کِنارہ) is a song featured in 2013 at session 2 of the popular Pakistani musical TV show Coke Studio.
The song is inspired in a traditional Turkish folk song called Kâtibim.
The song is very famous. it is said that every Turkish-speaking person knows it.
It is also typically accompanied by a traditional string instrument called "oud". And an oud player accompanies the singers in the video clip.
In the song's lyrics, a woman describes how the rain muddies the neat clothes of her clerk (the word "kaatip" means "clerk, scribe'), while they are travelling to the town of Üsküdar near modern-day Istanbul.
Later lines of the original Turkish song also reveal the clerk as her love interest, probably defying social conventions of the time.
A Turkish singer called Sumru Ağıryürüyen sings some opening and closing lines in that language.
The rest of the song is in Hindustani language, where the words ishq kinaaraaa ("Love Shore" or "Shore of Love") are used, probably just for alliteration with Üs-küdar'a.
The Urdu singer was Zoe Viccaji.
