O Chand Jahan Woh Jaye
Asha Bhosle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tu bhi saath chale jaana...
Kaise hain, kahan hain wo,
Har raat khabar laana...
O chand jahan wo jaaye,
O chand...
Wo raah agar bhoole,
Tu raah dikha dena...
Parades mein raahi ko,
Manzil ka pata dena...
Hai pehla safar unka,
Aur desh hai anjaana...
Har raat khabar laana ...
O chand jahan wo jaaye,
O chand...
Kehna mere hothon par...
Kehna mere hothon par,
Rukti hui aahen hain...
Ya raasta unka hai,
Ya meri nigaahen hain...
Betaab mohabbat ka
Betaab hai afsaana...
O chand jahan wo jaaye,
O chand...
Hai chand kasam meri,
Kuch aur na tu kehna...
Hai chand kasam meri,
Kuch aur na tu kehna...
Kehna ke mera tum bin,
Mushkil hai yahan rehna...
Kehna ke mera tum bin,
Mushkil hai yahan rehna...
Ek dard ke maare ko
Achcha nahin tadpaana...
Har raat khabar laana ...
O chand jahan wo jaaye,
O chand...
The song "O Chand Jahan Woh Jaye" by Asha Bhosle is a plaintive and emotional plea from a lover to the moon.

They are worried about their lover's whereabouts and want to know where they are every night. In the second verse, the lover asks the moon to guide them if they get lost on their way.
The third verse reveals that the lover's journey is through a foreign land, and they are asking the moon to help them find their way to their beloved. The fourth verse expresses the intensity of the lover's feelings for their beloved. They are asking whether their beloved is on the same path as them or if they have lost interest.
The fifth verse expresses the lover's desperation to be reunited with their beloved. The lover is saying that it is difficult to stay in this world without their beloved. Finally, the song ends with the request to the moon to bring news of their beloved every night.

ओ चाँद जहाँ वो जाएँ
तू भी साथ चले जाना
कैसे है, कहाँ है वो
हर रात खबर लाना
वो राह अगर भूलें, तू राह दिखा देना
परदेस में राही को मंज़िल का पता देना
है पहला सफर उनका और देस है अंजाना
हर रात खबर लाना...
कहना मेरे होंठो पर, रूकती हुई आहें हैं
या रास्ता उनका है, या मेरी निगाहें हैं
बेताब मोहब्बत का, बेताब है अफसाना
ओ चाँद जहाँ वो...
ऐ चाँद कसम मेरी, कुछ और न तू कहना
कहना की मेरा तुम बिन, मुश्किल है यहाँ रहना
इक दर्द के मारे को अच्छा नहीं तड़पाना
हर रात खबर लाना...
ओ चाँद जहाँ वो...

Very sweet and evergreen song sung by great Lata ji.
@ganapremi8034
Both the sisters were the best in the world. For pure love of a wife, Lata's voice was more suited, whereas for the slightly impure love of a lover, Asha's voice was more suited.
