I don't understand the sentences "Yeh bhi koi jeena hai" and "Yeh bhi koi marna."
These two sentences I found in the lyrics to the song Yaara Seeli Seeli. I understand the meaning of the individual words, but I don't understand these words when they are put together like this (yeh - this; bhi - also, too; koi - anything, anyone; jeena - to live; hai - is; marna - to die).

Mr Basil has answered this correctly. Context set by previous sentence is important to understand the meaning of "Yeh bhi koi jeena hai" and "Yeh bhi koi marna".
Great song btw, if you ask me!

Although my Hindi is totally lousy:---
Yaara seeli seeli birha ki raat ka jalna
Friend, slowly slowly the night of separation burns
Yeh bhi koi jeena hai, yeh bhi koi jeena hai
Is this called living, is this called living?
Yeh bhi koi marna
Is this called dying?
Ref:-

I'd take it to mean "Some people have to live (through this night), some have to die" but that's just me. In this context I see (koi = koi log = some people)
