قربان ہوا
Touch on each word to display its meaning
قربان ہوا تیرے تِشْنَگی میں یوں
قربان ہوا تیری عاشِقی میں یوں
بے قَدی میں ، بے خُودی میں ، بے کسی میں ہوا
تُجھ کو ہر دُعا دی ، اَور دوا بھی ، اَور فنا ہوا
Sacrificed in (my) thirst for you, just like this,
Sacrificed in (my) love for you, just like this,
It was in boundlessness, in ecstasy, in helplessness
I gave you every prayer, and every cure, and I was annihilated
قربان ہوا ، قربان ہوا
ادا پہ ، وفا پہ ، جَفا پہ
قربان ہوا ، قربان ہوا ، ہو
Sacrificed, sacrificed
for your charm, for your loyalty, for your cruelty
Sacrificed, sacrificed, oh!
رُو بَرُو تُو ، مگر تَنْہا ہے یہ جہاں
جَل اُٹھے میرے کُفْر سے سانسوں کا یہ سماں
کْیا ہوا ، پَل میں جانے کھو گیا کیوں
تُو مِلا اَور جُدا اِیمان ہوا یوں
بے خُودی میں ، بے قَدی میں ، بے کسی میں ہوا
تُجھ کو ہر دُعا دی ، اَور دوا بھی ، اَور فنا ہوا
You face-to-face, yet this world is lonely
This atmosphere of breaths was burned by my disbelief
Who knows what happened? In a moment, I lost myself, why?
I met you, and my faith grew apart, like this
In ecstasy, in boundlessness, in helplessness, it happened)
I gave you every prayer, and every cure, and I was annihilated
قربان ہوا ، قربان ہوا
ادا پہ ، وفا پہ ، جَفا پہ
قربان ہوا ، قربان ہوا ، ہو
Sacrificed, sacrificed
for your charm, for your loyalty, for your cruelty
Sacrificed, sacrificed, oh!
مرنے کا صَواب مانگتا رہا دربدر
مِٹنے کو تو دِل پَل میں راضی ہوا
پُوری ہوئی ہر آرزو ، ہر داستان میری
کِہ تُم شُروع ہوئے جہاں ، مَیں خَتَم ہوا
I kept begging door to door, for the reward of dying
in a moment, my heart was willing to be erased
Every one of my desires, of my stories, was fulfilled:
that where you began, I ended
قربان ہوا ، قربان ہوا
ادا پہ ، وفا پہ ، جَفا پہ
قربان ہوا ، قربان ہوا ، ہو
Sacrificed, sacrificed
for your charm, for your loyalty, for your cruelty
Sacrificed, sacrificed, oh!

qurbaan huaa (Hindi: क़ुर्बान हुआ, Urdu: قربان ہوا) "Sacrificed" is a song released as part of the soundtrack of the 2009 Bollywood movie "Kurbaan". Notice that in both the names of the film and the song, the spelling of the word qurbaan (sacrifice) is done with a "k", a very usual simplification in Hindi and its Latin transcriptions.
The movie is about Avantika, a university professor (Kareena Kapoor) who falls in love with her colleague Ehsaan (Saif Ali Khan), only to discover later that he is an undercover terrorist. The song describes how she is torn between this realization and the love she still feels for him.
The song's lyrics were written by Niranjan Iyengar, and the music was composed by the duo Salim-Sulaiman. In the movie, the singer is Vishal Dadlani.
Sony Music India also released a video clip starring Saif Ali Khan to promote the song independently. In more recent times the singer Melissa Srivastava released her own, soulful interpretation in social networks, which in my opinion is better than the original (putting aside her lacking Urdu pronunciation).
