Story context of song
Deepika Padukone (Tara) meets Ranbir Kapoor (Ved) in Croatia. They were never supposed to meet again. She comes back home & breaks off her engagement. Four years of trying to forget Ved make Tara realise it is indeed true love. She doesn't even dance with any other man. In four years. She finally finds Ved, who is so miserable in his corporate life, he sees no joy or fulfillment in anything.

Deepika Padukone/Alka Yagnik Tara Female Lyrics
Pal Bhar Thahar Jao,
Just stay for a moment
❤️Dil ye Sambhal jaye
so that my heart is calmed down (gets pacified/healed)
Detail English Explanation:
The pain of separation is so much at this point that she's nearly begging him to stay, even if for just a moment. Deepika Padukone (Tara) has found Ranbir Kapoor (Ved) after so long.
Thahar ठहर means to halt in English. Halt for just a moment, won't you? It's a poetic way of asking, urging to halt just for a moment, so that my heart is pacified..gets some time to get stable, gets some solace from you staying, just a little longer. The kind of unnerving restlessness from a separation, a break-up, that needs some time. Just some time to heal, some time to just be able to stand up on the feet again. That's the true meaning of Sambhal.
Kaise tumhe roka karu
How do I stop you
Meri taraph aata har gam phisal jaye
Every pain (grief, sorrow) coming my way, may it slip away
Ankhon me tumko bharun
I'd fill you in my eyes...(It's more wishful...)
'गर तुम साथ हो...
Bin bole baatein tum se karu..Agar tum sath ho...
I'd talk to you without talking..(talk with the eyes, without even saying anything out loud)
If you're there with me..(2)
Detail Interpretation & Explanation:
Tara wants to stop him. But he won't listen to her. He's cynical. He's miserable.
How do I keep stopping you? Stay for a moment, all my pain heading my way, will slip away. I'd fill you in my eyes (meaning: I'd keep looking at you fondly, and talk to you, with eyes) without actually moving lips or creating sound.
This stanza also ends with a tragic longing while sitting literally next to each other in that library.
"If you are there with me..."
नहर नदिया सी, तेरी दुनिया में
मेरी दुनिया है तेरी चाहतों में
Behti Rehti...Nahar Nadiya si teri duniya mein, Meri duniya hai teri chahaton mein,
Keeps flowing, like a river, in your world, is my world, in your desire (love desire, not lust)
main dhal jaati hoon teri aadaton mein..
I keep moulding into your habits
अगर तुम साथ हो (2)
Detail Interpretation & Explanation:
Tara beautifully words how her life has been. She keeps flowing like a canal or river in his world, and that has become her world. The world of desire, of longing, of loving him and wanting him.
Chahat is very pure. Although a direct translation can be desire but this implies pure love desire, to love, to care. This can also mean, in his desires. As in Deepika Padukone (Tara) is all about supporting Ranbir Kapoor (Ved's) crazy dreams of leaving it all & starting theatre. Her world is in what he wants. Tara keeps moulding into his habits, changing as per his habits.
Dhalna essentially brings the imagery of pottery. How you shape wet clay into a mould. Tara says she moulds easily into his ways, his habits when he's around, if he's around, if he's with her.
Ranbir Kapoor/Arijit Singh/Ved Male Lyrics
Teri nazron mein hain tere sapne
In your eyes are your dreams
Tere sapno mein hai, Main raazi
In your dreams, I am willing
I hate how other sites like Bolly meaning, lyricsraag etc, don't even listen to the song & erroneously write Naraazi. Naraazi is not even a word! The word is Naraazgi. नाराज़गी
Naraazi is not a word. At all. Ved is singing for the first time. The male side of this song shows the pathos in Ved's character. He has become so monotonous, he has no life left in him. He is a dead body walking to work every day.
He says, your eyes are filled with my dreams and in your dreams I am willing.(Hinting: For you, in your own world, in your illusion, it is all working fine, BUT THAT is NOT reality. Reality is cruel. It's miserable. We can never be happy.
होती लफ़्ज़ों की धोकेबाज़ी
Mujhe lagta hai ki baatein dil ki
hoti Laphzon ki dhokebaazi
I feel matters of the heart 💖 are just deception of wordplay
Tum saath ho ya na ho kya farq hai?
How does it matter if you're there with me or not?
अगर तुम साथ हो
अगर तुम साथ हो
Bedard thi, Zindagi bedard hai,agar tum saath ho...agar tum saath ho
Life was cruel (miserable, merciless) and life is still cruel if you're there with me, if you're there with me
Detail Interpretation & Explanation:
Ved is the living example of cynicism at this point in his life. He is depressed. He sees no joy in anything.
Nazron means eyes. Your eyes have my dreams. In your dreams (you think), I am willing. But I feel it's all a deception. Although a direct translation of baatein means talk, that's not meant here at all. When Ved sings, baatein Dil ki he means matters of the heart are all deception of word play.
What does laphzon ki dhokebaazi mean in English?
laphzon ki means of words. Dhokebaazi means deception, cheating, a trick.
Ved is like a void. He doesn't believe love can heal anything. He doesn't believe anything can cure him or heal him. He feels he's doomed, he's miserable. So, all these lovey dovey words, the emotions of love are just illusion to him. He wants to believe it's delusional to believe in anything healing, especially love & everything happy is not even real to him at this point.
What does Bedard mean in English?
Bedard बेदर्द means निर्दय, ज़लिम cruel, heartless.
dard means pain. Bedard means lacking any generosity. Nirdaya निर्दय is lack of daya or generosity. What Ved means is his life will stay miserable as it was. Tara being there, doesn't make any difference.
English Meaning
So how does it make a difference if she's there with him? he asks. (kya farq means what difference). Life was miserable before she came into his life and life is STILL miserable when she's with him. So this if you're there with me means nothing to him. His heart is as vacant as it was before her and when she's with him. He feels as if his soul is sucked out. He's not capable to feel anything. Agar tum saath ho song from Ved's point of view is brooding of dystopia.
Deepika Padukone/Alka Yagnik Tara Female Lyrics
बैठी बैठी भागी फिरूं..
Palkein jhapakte hi, din ye nikal jaye, baithi baithi bhaagi phirun
May the day pass the moment the eyes blink, I keep running while sitting (symbolises the restlessness she feels. Even when she's sitting, restlessness is making her run. So, she wishes the day should pass in the blink of an eye, so her torementing pain is lessened).
Meri taraph aata har gam phisal jaye
Every pain coming my way, may it slip away
Ankhon me tumko bharu
I'd fill you in my eyes...(It's more wishful...)
'गर तुम साथ हो...
Bin bole baatein tum se karu..Agar tum sath ho...
I'd talk to you without talking..(talk with the eyes, without even saying anything out loud)
If you're there with me..(2)
Ranbir Kapoor/Arijit Singh/Ved Male Lyrics
तेरी नज़रों में है तेरे सपने
Teri nazron mein hain tere sapne
In your eyes are your dreams
Tere sapno mein hai, Main raazi
In your dreams, I am willing
Detail Interpretation & Explanation:
He says, your eyes are filled with my dreams and in your dreams I am willing.(Hinting: For you, in your own world, in your illusion, it is all working fine, BUT THAT is NOT reality. Reality is cruel. It's miserable. We can never be happy.
होती लफ़्ज़ों की धोकेबाज़ी
Mujhe lagta hai ki baatein dil ki
hoti Laphzon ki dhokebaazi
I feel matters of the heart 💖 are just deception of wordplay
Tum saath ho ya na ho kya farq hai?
How does it matter if you're there with me or not?
अगर तुम साथ हो
अगर तुम साथ हो
Bedard thi, Zindagi bedard hai,agar tum saath ho...agar tum saath ho
Life was cruel (miserable) and life is still cruel if you're there with me, if you're there with me
दिल ये संभल जाए
हर ग़म फिसल जाए
(अगर तुम साथ हो)
Agar tum sath ho, dil ye sambhal jaye, har gham phisal jaye
If you're there with me, the heart would be stable (would be consoled), may every pain slip
(अगर तुम साथ हो)
हर ग़म फिसल जाए
Din ye nikal jaye, (agar tum Saath ho), har gham phisal jaye
May the day pass (happily..), if you are there with me, may every pain slip
Detail Interpretation & Explanation:
It's important to note here the meaning of the same line, din ye nikal jaye changes.
What is the meaning of din ye nikal jaye in agar tum saath ho
It's important to note the meaning of din ye nikal jaye completely changes in the last line. The first time, Ved's miserable attitude gets the better of Tara. Now she's also miserable. She wishes the day to just pass. Because it's hard to take it anymore.
What does Palkein mean?
Palkein means eyelashes.
What does Jhapakte mean?
Jhapakte means the moment it blinks.
It's the best poetic way to explain the fragility of time. How soon it can pass. A blink of an eye is the easiest to imagine how quickly it passes.
At first, she wishes the time pass so quickly because the of the pain. Then, it changes to mean, my days would pass if you're there with me. The last stanza constantly speaks of wishful thinking. Every line is "May this time pass by"..."May the pain slip away".
Agar Tum Saath Ho | SPECIAL ANALYSIS
Agar Tum Sath Ho is a song of misery, longing, very beautifully expressing the uncontrollable restlessness within. The matters of the heart cannot always be explained. While Ved has absolutely given up on life, love, and everything else, Tara longs for him, longs for the happy him to be happy again.
Story Background - Agar Tum Saath Ho
Tara had left Ved after he just wasn't who she thought he was on the trip. He maintained he was acting and this was his real self. But Tara did know somewhere that he had completely become a robot and the carefree Ved was the real him, who was so forced to never take the arts field as his profession that he had given up on ever smiling. While Tara constantly kept longing for him and came back to insist, to explain that he try, he was not willing.
Ved maintains the dystopia to her brooding longing, that it really does not make any difference if she is with him or not. A partner cannot make any difference when the depressed person has completely given up on joy, or even the possibilty of ever being happy.
Agar Tum Saath Ho Song
There is a thehraw (graceful pause) along with the bitter meh feeling and the restlessness, all at the same time in Agar Tum Saath Ho.
