Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tan bhi hai mann bhi hai pighla huaan
Chhayi hai ranginiya phir bhi hai betaabiyan
Kyun dhadakta hai dil
Kyun yeh kehta hai dil
Deewanon ko ab tak nahi hai yeh pata
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
Khona hai kya
Khona hai kya
Do ghadi mein yahaan jaane kya ho gaya
Jo hamesha tha mera dil mera ho gaya
Kaun kiske dil mein hai faisala hoga
Faisala hai yahi jeet hogi meri
Deewaanon ab tak nahi hai yeh pata
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
Khona hai kya
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
Khona hai kya
Aaon main tumse kahu baat chupke se
Rang badlegi pal mein raat chupke se
Tumko le jaaunga phir saath chhupke se
Jaaoge tum kahaan dekho main yahaan
Deewaanon ab tak nahi hai yeh pata
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
Khona hai kya
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
Khona hai kya
The song "Aaj Ki Raat" by A.R. Rahman feat. Sonu Nigam, Mahalakshmi Iyer, and Alisha Chinai is a song that talks about the feeling of being lost in the moment. The opening lines suggest that it's an evening filled with wine and intoxication, which is causing their bodies and minds to melt away into each other. There is a deep sense of restlessness and yearning for something more, despite being surrounded by vibrant colors.
The chorus of the song repeats the line "khona hai kya, paana hai kya" which can roughly be translated to "what do we have to lose, what do we stand to gain" which reflects the indecisiveness of the lovers. They're caught in the moment but at the same time, they're trying to question and understand it.
The second verse introduces a sense of conflict and doubt. There is a realization that something significant is happening between two people, but they are not sure how to handle it. The singers wonder who will make the first move and where their hearts lie, leading up to the final lines of the song. The ending verse is a confession of love, where one of the players admits their feelings and promises to maintain the secrecy of the relationship.
Overall, the song captures the feeling of fluidity and vulnerability that can come with being in love, particularly in a moment of uncertainty.

Shaam hai jaam hai aur hai nasha
It is evening and there is wine and intoxication
Tan bhi hai mann bhi hai pighla huaan
Both body and mind are melted
Chhayi hai ranginiya phir bhi hai betaabiyan
There is colorfulness all around, yet there is restlessness
Kyun dhadakta hai dil
Why does the heart beat fast
Kyun yeh kehta hai dil
Why does the heart say this
Deewanon ko ab tak nahi hai yeh pata
The crazy ones still don't know
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
What is there to lose or gain tonight
Do ghadi mein yahaan jaane kya ho gaya
In two moments, what has happened here
Jo hamesha tha mera dil mera ho gaya
What was always mine, became mine
Kaun kiske dil mein hai faisala hoga
Who will make a decision in whose heart
Faisala hai yahi jeet hogi meri
The decision will be mine and I will win
Aaon main tumse kahu baat chupke se
Let me tell you something secretly
Rang badlegi pal mein raat chupke se
Colors will change in a moment, quietly at night
Tumko le jaaunga phir saath chhupke se
I will take you away with me, secretly
Jaaoge tum kahaan dekho main yahaan
Where will you go, look I'm here
Deewaanon ab tak nahi hai yeh pata
The crazy ones still don't know
Aaj ki raat khona hai kya paana hai kya
What is there to lose or gain tonight
