English Translation
|
| Sada chidiyan da chamba ve |
We are a flock of sparrows |
| Babul asan udh jana |
Dear father, we'll fly away |
| Sadi lambi udari ve |
Our flight is very long |
| Babul kede des jana |
Dear father, where should I go |
|
|
| Surkh jode ki yeh jagmagahat |
The shine of this red dress |
| Shokh bindiya ki yeh jhilmilahat |
The twinkling of this pert bindi |
| Chhudiyon ka yeh rangeen tarana |
The sound from these colourful bangles |
| Dhadkano ka yeh sapna suhana |
The beautiful dream of my heartbeats |
| Jaga jaga sa kajre ka jadoo |
The magic of kohl lined eyes has awakened |
| Bheeni bheeni si gajre ki kushuboo |
The slight fragrance of flowers |
| Naram hothon ka yeh kapkapana |
The shivering of these soft lips |
| Garam chehre ka yeh tamtamana |
The glow of this warm face |
| Jism ka mehka mehka paseena |
The aroma from the sweat of the body |
| Husn ka dehka dehka nageena |
This diamond like body |
| Jhanjharon ka yeh tham thamke bajna |
The jingling of these anklets |
| Yeh sawarna, nikharna, yeh sajna |
This getting ready, this adornment |
| Kiski khatir hai kiske liye hai |
Is for whom and why |
| Kiski khatir hai kiske liye hai |
Is for whom and why |
|
|
| Tere mehlan de vich vich ve |
Through your mansion's door |
| Babul dola nayyo langda |
Dear father, this palanquin won't pass |
| Tere mehlan de vich vich ve |
Through your mansion's door |
| Babul dola nayyo langda |
Dear father, this palanquin won't pass |
| Ik it puta devan |
I'll have a tree uprooted |
| Dhiye ghar ja apne |
O daughter, go to your home |
| Ik it puta devan |
I'll have a tree uprooted |
| Dhiye ghar ja apne |
O daughter, go to your home |
