Jany wo kesy log they jinky
Piyar ko piyar mila
Jany wo kesy log they jinky
Piyar ko piyar mila
Ham ny to jab kaliyan maangi
Kanton ka haar mila
Jany wo kesy log they jinky
Piyar ko piyar mila
Khushiyon ki manzil dhondi to
Gham ki gard mili
Khushiyon ki manzil dhondi to
Gham ki gard mili
Chahat ky nagmy chahy to
Aahein sard mili
Dil ky bojh dugna kar gaya
Jo gham khar mila
Jany wo kesy log they jinky
Piyar ko piyar mila
Bichar gaya bichar gaya
Bichar gaya har saathi dekar
Pal do pal ka saath
Kis ko fursat hai jo thamy
Deewano ka hath
Ham ko apna saaya tak aksar bezar mila
Ham ny to jab kaliyan maangi
Kanton ka haar mila
Jany wo kesy log they jinky
Piyar ko piyar mila...!!!

Overall Meaning:
The lyrics of "Mitter Pyare Nu" by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan are about the pain of losing someone you love and the search for that kind of deep love once again. The first stanza talks about those rare people who have experienced love and were fortunate enough to find someone who loved them back. The singer marvels at these people who were blessed enough to receive love and keep it. He also talks about his own experience of searching for love and only finding heartbreak and thorns instead of roses.
The second stanza is about searching for happiness but only finding sorrow. The singer laments that his search for love songs has only yielded sighs instead of joy. The lines "Dil ky bojh dugna kar gaya, Jo gham khar mila" translate to "The burden on my heart doubled when I found sorrow." The third and final stanza talks about how everyone we love will eventually leave us, making the journey of life a lonely one. The singer admits that he has become numb to even his own shadow, which used to be a comforting presence.
