مار   ڈالا
It Has Killed Me
یہ   کس کی   ہے   آہٹ ،  یہ   کِس   کا   ہے   سایہ
ہوئی   دِل   میں   دستک ،  یہاں   کون   آیا
Whose sound/footsteps are those, whose shadow is this
There was a knock on (my) heart's door, who came here?
ہَم   پہ   یہ   کِس   نے   ہرا   رنگ   ڈالا ؟  [ x2 ]
خُوشی   نے   ہَماری   ہَمِیں
مار   ڈالا  …  [ x4 ]
ہَم   پہ   یہ   کِس   نے   ہرا   رنگ   ڈالا ؟

نَہ   چاند   ہتھیلی   پَر   سجایا

ہر   غم   کو   ہَم   نے   چھپایا
ہر   سِتَم   کو   ہنس   کے   اٹھایا
I neither decorate the palm of my hand with the moon
Nor did I create any relation with the stars
I not even complained to God about anything
I concealed every sadness
I smiled and bore every outrage
کانٹوں   کو   بھی   گلے   سے   لگایا
اَور   پُھولوں   سے   زخم   کھایا
ہاں   مگر   دُعا   میں   جَب   یہ   ہاتھ   اٹھایا
ہو   ہاں   مگر   دُعا   میں   جَب   یہ   ہاتھ   اٹھایا
خُدا   سے   دُعا   میں   تُمْہیں  …

I even embraced the thorns
and sustained injury by the flowers,
yes, but when I raised these hands in prayer,
oh, yes, but when I raised these hands in prayer
from God,
I besought for you …
I besought for you … God [x2]
I besought for you …
خُوشی   نے   ہَماری   ہَمِیں   مار   ڈالا   [ x2 ]

My happiness killed me [x2]
It killed me

Killed me … God [x3]
killed me [x3]
مار   ڈالا  ؍  یہ   کیسی   ہے   آہٹ
مار   ڈالا  ؍  یہ   کِس   کا   ہے   سایہ
مار   ڈالا  ؍  ہوئی   دِل   میں   دستک
مار   ڈالا  ؍  یہاں   کون   آیا
Killed me / whose sound/footsteps are those?
Killed me / whose shadow is this?
Killed me / there was a knock on (my) heart's door
Killed me / who came here?

About this song

Singer
Kavita Krishnamurti
On screen
Shah Rukh Khan, Madhuri Dixit

maar Daalaa (Hindi: मार डाला, Urdu: مار ڈالا) "(He/It) Killed (Me)" is a song from the 2002 Indian period drama film "Devdas".

The movie is based on the namesake novel by the Bengali writer Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyay.

It tells the story of a star-crossed couple formed by Devdas (in the movie, played by the Indian actor Shah Rukh Khan) and Parvati or "Paro" (played by the Indian actress Aishwarya Rai).

In both the movie and the novel, Devdas, unable to make good his love for Paro, moves into a brothel and becomes an alcoholic, where a courtesan called Chandramukhi (played by the Indian dancer and actress Madhuri Dixit) falls in love with him.

In the movie scene accompanying this song, Chandramukhi is shown dancing and singing in for Devdas and Kalibabu (an evil character played by the Indian actor Milind Gunaji) who is also a brothel customer.

While Chandramukhi tries to continue with her dancing she shows increasing concern for Devdas, who is heartbroken and in the process of drinking himself to death. In the end, Devdas passes out and Chandramukhi stops dancing.

The actual singer is the Indian playback singer Kavita Krishnamurti. Remarkably, Madhuri Dixit was pregnant while performing the dance scene.

The lyrics were written by the prolific Bollywood writer Nusrat Badr, and the music was composed by the Indian musician and composer Ismail Darbar.
