Once, around the age of five when Lucky's mother came with him to receive Mehmood at the airport, Lucky didn't recognize his father and on seeing him said, "He's the film comedian Mehmood!" Lucky Ali lived away from his family in a boarding school up in the foothills of the Himalayas in Mussoorie. Lucky's tryst with marijuana led Mehmood to write the script of the movie Dushman Duniya Ka (Enemy of the World).[3] The movie stars Ali's youngest brother,Manzoor. It is the story of the drug abuse of a young man called Lucky. In the end the young man kills his mother, destroys everything around him and is then killed by his father.

Lucky Ali Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kyon Jhume Hai Gagan
Kyon Machalta Hai Mann
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Kyon Aati Hai Bahaar
Kyon Lutta Hai Karaar
Kyon Hota Hai Pyaar
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Ye Madhoshiyaan Ye Tanhaiyaan
Tasabur Mein Hai Kiski Parchhaiyaan
Ye Bhiga Samaan Umangein Jawaan
Mujhe Ishq Le Ja Raha Hai Kahaan
Kyon Gum Hai Har Disha
Kyon Hota Hai Nasha
Kyon Aata Hai Mazaa
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Dhadakta Bhi Hai Tadapta Bhi Hai
Ye Dil Kyon Achanak Bahakta Bhi Hai
Mahakta Bhi Hai
Chahakta Bhi Hai
Ye Dil Kya Vafa Ko Samajhta Bhi Hai
Kyon Milti Hain Nazar
Kyon Hota Hai Asar
Kyon Hoti Hai Sahar
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Kyon Chalti Hai Pavan
Kyon Jhume Hai Gagan
Kyon Machalta Hai Mann
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Kyon Aati Hai Bahaar
Kyon Lutta Hai Karaar
Kyon Hota Hai Pyaar
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
Na Tum Jano Na Hum
The song "Na Tum Jano Na Hum" by Lucky Ali is a beautiful and soulful expression of the emotions and questions that arise when one falls in love. The lyrics delve into the mystery and uncertainty of love, with the repeated refrain "Na Tum Jano Na Hum" (neither you know, nor I), expressing the idea that even though we experience love, we cannot fully understand it.
The verses begin with questions about the natural world – "Kyon Chalti Hai Pavan" (why does the wind blow), "Kyon Jhume Hai Gagan" (why does the sky dance), and "Kyon Machalta Hai Mann" (why does the heart race) – as if to say that love is as natural and inevitable as the movement of the wind and the sky. The questions then turn to the emotional realm – "Kyon Hota Hai Pyaar" (why does love happen), "Kyon Gum Hai Har Disha" (why is every direction lost), and "Kyon Hota Hai Nasha" (why is there intoxication) – expressing the confusion and mystery that surrounds love.
The bridge of the song is particularly poignant, with the singer questioning the source of the feelings that arise within him – "Ye Madhoshiyaan Ye Tanhaiyaan, Tasabur Mein Hai Kiski Parchhaiyaan" (these crazinesses, these solitudes, whose shadows are in my thoughts), and expressing the intense, almost overwhelming quality of the emotions that love brings – "Mujhe Ishq Le Ja Raha Hai Kahaan" (where is this love taking me).
Overall, "Na Tum Jano Na Hum" is a masterful exploration of the complexities of romantic love, and Lucky Ali's rich, expressive voice and evocative lyrics make it a classic of Indian popular music.
