Sunnewalon, suno aisa bhi hota hai
Listen, all you people, it happens this way too

Dil deta hai jo woh jaan bhi khota hai
Those who love, lose their lives too

Pyar aisa jo karta hai, kya marke bhi marta hai
Ones who love like this, do they really die when they die?

Aao tum bhi aaj sunlo
Come and listen

Dastaan hai yeh ke ek tha naujawan jo dil hi dil mein ek haseena ka tha deewana
The story goes that there was once a young lad who was crazy for a beautiful girl

Woh haseena thi ke jiski khubsoorti ka duniya bhar mein tha mashhoor afsana
She was famous throughout the world for her beauty

Donon ki yeh kahani hai jis ko sabhi kehte hain Om Shanti Om
Their story is what everyone calls Om Shanti Om

Naujawan ki thi aarzoo, uski thi yahi justuju
The young lad wished and desired

Us haseena mein usko mile ishq ke saare rang –o-hoor
That he would find in her, love in all its splendour

Usne na jaana yeh naadani hai
He didn’t realize how foolish he was

Woh reth ko samjha ke paani hai
He thought the sand was water

Kyun aisa tha kisliye tha yeh kahani hai…..
Why and how this happened is the story

Dastaan hai yeh ke us dilkash haseena ke nigahon dil mein koi doosra hi tha
The story goes that this beauty’s eyes and heart belonged to someone else

Bekhabar is baat se us naujawan ke khwabon ka anjaam toh hona bura hi tha
The ignorant lad’s dreams were bound to have a bad ending

Toote khwabon ki is dastaan ko sabhi kehte hain Om Shanti Om
This story of shattered dreams is what everyone calls Om Shanti Om

Sunnewalon, suno aisa bhi hota hai
Listen all you people, it happens this way too

Koi jitna hanse utna hi rota hai
One who laughs a lot weeps a lot tooDeewani hoke haseena khayi kya dhoke haseena
Madly in love, the beauty was betrayed

Aao tum bhi aaj sunlo
Come and listen

Dastaan hai yeh ke us masoom haseena ne jise chaha woh tha andar se harjaai
The story goes that the innocent beauty was in love with a treacherous man

Sangdil se dil lagake bewafa ke haath aake usne ek din maut hi paayi
By giving her heart to a merciless man, betrayed by him, she met her end one day

Ek sitam ka fasana hai jis ko sabhi kehte hain Om Shanti Om
The story of this injustice is what everyone calls Om Shanti Om

Kyun koi qaatil samajhta nahin
Why doesn’t a murderer understand?

Yeh jurm woh hai jo chhupta nahin
A crime cannot be hidden

Yeh daag woh hai jo mit ta nahin
The stain cannot be erased

Rehte hain khooni ke raath par
It remains on his hands

Khoon us haseena ka jab tha hua
When that beautiful girl was murdered

Koi wahan tha pahunch toh gaya
Someone was there to help her

Lekin use toh bacha na saka
But he couldn’t save her

Roye tha pyar uski maath par
He cried on her body

Dastaan hai yeh ke jo pehchaanta hai khooni ko woh naujawan hai lautke aaya
The story goes that the one who recognizes the murderer, that lad came back

Keh rahi hai zindagi qaatil samajh le uske sar pe chha chuka hai maut ka saaya
It’s life’s way of telling the murderer that the shadow of death surrounds him

Janmon ki karmon ki hai kahani jise kehte hain Om Shanti Om
This story of rebirth and destiny is what’s called Om Shanti Om

kehte hain Om Shanti Om, kehte hain Om Shanti Om
What’s called Om Shanti Om
