This is one of my favourite folk-songs…Have uploaded it earlier in 2009 too, re-uploading it today to wish everyone A Very Happy Teej….From left to right are My Bhabhi, Mataji, Mummy and me…all of us always sing these songs every year at home to celebrate Saawan and Teej…This time I decided to record and upload the team-effort 🙂 Also posting the lyrics below which I have tried to translate in English to the best of my ability…….

Galin galin Manra phirey-2
….The Bangle-seller wanders from street to street
Ari Bibi, Manra ko leyna bulwaaye
….O sister, please call the bangle-seller
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Kaun disa se Manra aayee hai?-2
…. From which direction the bangle-seller has come?
Aur kaun disa ko Manra jaaye?
…..And to which direction does the bangle-seller go?
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Poorab disa se Manra aayee hai-2
….The bangle-seller comes from the East direction
Aur Paschchim disa ko Manra jaaye
…..And the bangle-seller goes in the West direction
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Hari re Jingali re Manra naa pehrun-2
….O bangle-seller, I will not wear green Jingali (A special collection of bangles)
Are manra, hare mere Rajaji ke baag, Maharajaji ke baag
….O bangle-seller, because my King of King’s( loved one’s) gardens are green
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Kaali re Jingali re Manra naa pehrun-2
….O bangle-seller, I will not wear black Jingali (A special collection of bangles)
Are Manra, kale mere Rajaji ke baal Maharajaji ke baal
….O bangle-seller, black are my King of King’s(Loved one’s) hair
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Laal re Jingali re Manra naa pehrun- 2
….O bangle-seller, I will not wear red Jingali (A special collection of bangles)
Are Manra, Laal mere Rajaji ke honth , Maharajaji ke honth
….O bangle-seller, red are my King of King’s(loved one’s) lips
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Peeli re Jingali re Manra naa pehrun-2
….O bangle-seller, I will not wear yellow Jingali ( A special collection of bangles)
Are Manra, peele mere Rajaji ke mehel, Maharajaji ke mehel
….O bangle-seller, yellow are my King of King’s palaces
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Neeli re Jingali re Manra naa pehrun-2
…..O bangle-seller, I will not wear blue Jingali ( A special collection of bangles)
Are Manra, neele mere Rajaji ke Gudhal, Maharajaji ke gudhal
…..O bangle-seller, blue are my King of King’s (Loved one’s) horses
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Shwet re Jingali re Manra naa pehrun-2
….O bangle-seller, I will not wear white Jingali ( A special collection of bangles)
Are Manra, shwet mere Rajaji ke vastra, Maharajaji ke vastra
….O bangle-seller, white are my King of King’s(loved one’s) clothes
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life
Aisi Jingali re Manra tu pehraa-2
….O bangle-seller, give me such a Jingali ( A special collection of bangles) to wear
Jisse jag saara jag-mag hoye
….Which makes the whole world shine
Choora to meri jaan, Choora to haathi-daant ka
….Choora( A large-sized broad bangle) made from ivory is my life

The Lyrics and their English Translation are…..

Madhuban khushboo detaa hai,

… Sweet forest gives fragrance

Saagar saawan detaa hai

… Sea gives rain

Jeenaa uskaa jeenaa hai,

… One is said to have lived a life

Jo auron ko jeewan detaa hai

… If he gives Life to others

Madhuban khushboo detaa hai

… Sweet forest gives fragrance

Sooraj na ban paaye to,

…. If you can’t be Sun

Ban ke deepak jaltaa chal

…. Light yourself like a lamp

Sooraj na ban paaye to,

…. If you can’t be Sun

Ban ke deepak jaltaa chal

…. Light yourself like a lamp

Phool milen yaa angaare,

…. Whether  you get flowers or burning coals

Sach ki raahon pe chaltaa chal

…. Walk on the path of Truth

Sach ki raahon pe chaltaa chal

…. Walk on the path of Truth

Pyaar dilon ko detaa hai,

… He gives love to hearts

Ashqon ko daaman detaa hai

… Extends sympathy for tears

Jeenaa uskaa jeenaa hai,

… One is said to have lived a life

Jo auron ko jeewan detaa hai

… If he gives Life to others

Madhuban khushboo detaa hai,

… Sweet forest gives fragrance

Saagar saawan detaa hai

… Sea gives rain

Madhuban khushboo detaa hai

… Sweet forest gives fragrance

 

Chalti hai lehraa ke pawan,

…. As the swaying breeze blows

Ke saans sabhie ki chalti rahe

…. May everyone keep on breathing

Chalti hai lehraa ke pawan,

…. As the swaying breeze blows

ke saans sabhie ki chalti rahe

…. May everyone keep on breathing

Logon ne tyaag diye jeewan,

…. People have sacrificed their lives

Ke preet dilon mein palti rahe

…. So that love keeps on growing in hearts

Ke preet dilon mein palti rahe

…. So that love keeps on growing in hearts

Dil wo dil hai jo auron ko,

…. A heart is truly a heart only if

Apni dhadkan detaa hai

…. It gives its heart-beat to others

Jeenaa uskaa jeenaa hai,

… One is said to have lived a life

Jo auron ko jeewan detaa hai

… If he gives Life to others

Madhuban khushboo detaa hai,

… Sweet forest gives fragrance

Saagar saawan detaa hai

… Sea gives rain

Madhuban khushboo detaa hai

… Sweet forest gives fragrance

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqEMPNoVpc4

This is a Lori/Lullaby, I love to sing, I translated the words to English as best as I could…..posting the lyrics and the English translation below…..

 

Nanhi Kali Sone Chali

….The little flower-bud is going to sleep
Hawa Dheere Aana

….Breeze! Please blow gently

Neend Bhare, Pankh Liye, Jhoolaa Jhula Jaana

….In your sleep-laden wings, rock her as in a cradle
Nanhi Kali Sone Chali

….The little flower-bud is going to sleep

Hawa Dheere Aana

….Breeze! Please blow gently

Neend Bhare, Pankh Liye, Jhoola Jhula Jaana

….In your sleep-laden wings, rock her as in a cradle
Nanhi Kali Sone Chali

….The little flower-bud is going to sleep

Chaand Kiran Si Gudiya Naazon Ki Hai Pali  2

…..The Doll who is like a moon-ray has been brought up very delicately with care
Aaj Agar Chaandaniya Aana Meri Gali

…..Dear moonlight! If today you come my way
Gun Gun Gun Geet Koi Haule Haule Gaana

…..Hum a song to her gently
Neend Bhare Pankh Liye, Jhoola Jhula Jaana

….In your sleep-laden wings, rock her as in a cradle

Resham Ki Dor Agar Pairon Ko Uljhaaye  2

…..If a silk-chord entangle her feet
Ghungharu Ka Daana Koi Shor Machaa Jaaye

…..If musical grain from her anklet makes a noise
Raani Meri Jaage To Phir Nindiya Tu Behlaana

…..If my Queen wakes up, then Sleep! You amuse her
Neend Bhare, Pankh Liye, Jhoola Jhula Jaana

….In your sleep-laden wings, rock her as in a cradle
Nanhi Kali Sone Chali Hawa Dheere Aana

….The little flower-bud is going to sleep, Breeze! Please blow gently

(Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

Koi vastu nahin aisi jise sewa mein laaun mein) 2

…….There is nothing which I can use for this purpose

 

Karun kis taur aawahan ki tum sarvatra vyaapak ho 2

……How do I call upon you as you are Universal, present everywhere

Niraadar hai bulaane ko ,agar ghanti bajaaun mein

…….It is disrespectful if I ring a bell to call upon you

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

 

Tumhin ho moorti mein bhi, tumhi vyaapak ho phoolon mein

……You are present in statues as well as flowers

Bhala Bhagwaan par Bhagwaan ko kyun-kar chadhaaun mein

……How do I offer God himself to God

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

 

Lagaana bhog kuchh tumko, ye ek apmaan karna hai 2

……Trying to feed you is an insult

Khilaata hai jo sab jag ko, use kyun-kar khilaaun mein

…….You feed the whole world, how can I feed you

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

Tumhaari jyoti se roshan hain Suraj ,Chaand aur Taare 2

…..Your radiance lights up Sun, Moon and Stars

Mahaa andher hai kaise tumhein Deepak dikhaaun mein

…..It is very unfortunate if I show a lamp to you

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

 

 

Bhujaaein hain naa gardan hai naa seena hai naa peshaani 2

…..You don’t have arms, neck, chest or forehead

Tum ho nirlep Naarayan, kahaan chandan lagaaun mein

……Nothing can be applied to you God, where do I put the sandalwood paste

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

 

Bade naadaan hain we jan jo ghadte aapki moorat 2

….Ignorant are those who make your idols

Banaata hai jo sab jag ko use kyun-kar banaaun mein

…..You create the whole world, how can I create you

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein

…..I am strangely perplexed Dear God , How do I please you

Koi vastu nahin aisi jise sewa mein laaun mein

…….There is nothing which I can use for this purpose

Ajab hairaan hun Bhagwan,tumhein kyun-kar rijhaaun mein 2

Bulbule Si Ye…..Zindagi Pyaar Ka Geet Hai (Life is a Song of Love)

Posted in My poems and write-ups ( Dil Se...), my renditions, My Renditions with English Translations, tagged , , , , , , , , , , on June 13, 2013| 3 Comments »


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVdFu-nyAEM

‘Zindagi Pyaar Ka Geet Hai’ is a song originally rendered by Lataji for the movie ‘Souten’….I have combined the song with a few lines I wrote about Life….the lines and the English translation are given below……
Bulbule-si ye zindagi….
…..Life just like a bubble

Pal-pal kitne roop badalti-
…..Every moment, changing faces

Kabhie to saare rangon se chhalak uthati,
…..Sometimes spills over with all the colours

Kabhie sirf saleti-si reh jaati
……Sometimes is left coloured only in greys

Ek hi pal…phool mehek uthate,
……One moment,flowers spread their fragrance

Man gaa uthate, hanste-khelte, ithalaate
…..Hearts sing,dance and play with happiness

Dooje hi pal…muskaata chand pheeka-sa ho jaata
…..Next moment,the smiling moon fades away

Raat ke ghane andhkaar mein na jaane kahan gum ho jaata
…..And disappears in the deep darkness of night

Kabhie shaant nadi-si behti jaati
…..Sometimes, flows on like a peaceful river

Kabhie ek aandhi sab tehes-nehes kar jaati
…..At other times, a storm wreaks havoc

Kabhie saare jawaab de…hairaan kar jaati
….Surprises sometimes by giving answers to all the questions

To kabhie khud hi ek sawaal ban jaati
…..At other times, becomes a question itself

Bulbule-si ye zindagi…..
…. Life just like a bubble

Bas abhi thi aur abhi nahin
….Just now was there and next moment no more

Kabhie aansoo kabhie hansi bankar-
….Becomes a tear in a moment and laughter in another

Kathputli-sa sabko nachaati
….Makes everyone dance like a puppet

Bulbule-si ye zindagi…….
….Life just like a bubble Mani

Lyrics of the song and english translation are as follows……

(Zindagi Pyaar Ka Geet Hai
ise Har Dil Ko Gaana Padega) -2
….Life is a song of love That every heart will have to sing
zindagi Gham Ka Sagar Bhi Hai
….Life is also an ocean of sorrow

hanske Us Paar Jaana Padega
….which everyone has to cross smiling

jis Ka Jitna Ho Aanchal Yahaan Par
….Whatever one’s capacity

us Ko Saugaat Utni Milegi
….Gifts are bestowed on him accordingly

la La La, La La La, La La La La La La La~

jis Ka Jitna Ho Aanchal Yahaan Par
….Whatever one’s capacity

us Ko Saugaat Utni Milegi
….Gifts are bestowed on him accordingly

phool Jeevan Mein Gar Na Khile To
….If flowers do not bloom in life

kaanton Se Bhi Nibhaana Padega
….One may have to get on with thorns too

zindagi Pyaar Ka Geet Hai
ise Har Dil Ko Gaana Padega
….Life is a song of love That every heart will have to sing
hai Agar Door Manzil To Kya
….How does it matter if the destination is far-off

raasta Bhi Hain Mushkil To Kya
…..How does it matter if the path is difficult

la La La, La La La, La La La La La La La~

hai Agar Door Manzil To Kya
….How does it matter if the destination is far-off

raasta Bhi Hain Mushkil To Kya
…..How does it matter if the path is difficult
raat Taaron Bhari Na Mile To
….If one does not get a starlit sky

dil Ka Deepak Jalaana Padega
…..Then light a lamp in your heart

zindagi Pyaar Ka Geet Hai
ise Har Dil Ko Gaana Padega
….Life is a song of love That every heart will have to sing

zindagi Ek Paheli Bhi Hai
….Life is also a riddle

sukh Dukh Ki Saheli Bhi Hai
….is also a friend in happiness and sorrow

la La La, La La La, La La La La La La La~

zindagi Ek Paheli Bhi Hai
….Life is also a riddle

sukh Dukh Ki Saheli Bhi Hai
….is also a friend in happiness and sorrow
zindagi Ek Wachan Bhi To Hai
….Life is also a promise

jise Sab Ko Nibhaana Padega
…..That everyone will have to fulfill

zindagi Pyaar Ka Geet Hai
ise Har Dil Ko Gaana Padega
….Life is a song of love That every heart will have to sing
zindagi Gham Ka Sagar Bhi Hai
hanske Us Paar Jaana Padega
….Life is also an ocean of sorrow That everyone has to cross smiling

Ek Pyar Ka Nagma Hai

Posted in my renditions, My Renditions with English Translations, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , on March 20, 2013| Leave a Comment »


The lyrics and their English translation are given below….

Ek pyar ka nagma hai

It is a Song of Love

Maujon ki ravaani hai

It is a flow of ecstasy

Zindagi aur kuchh bhi nahin

Life is nothing else but

Teri meri kahaani hai

A story of you and me

Kuchh paakar khona hai

Have to lose something after gaining

Kuchh khokar paana hai

Have to gain something after losing

Jeevan ka matalab to

The meaning of Life is

Aana aur jaana hai

Coming and Going

Do pal ke jeevan se

From a few moments of life

Ek umr churaani hai

Have to steal a lifetime

Zindagi aur kuchh bhi nahin

Life is nothing else but

Teri meri kahaani hai

A story of you and me

Ek pyar ka nagma hai

It is a Song of Love

Tu dhaar hai nadiya ki

You are the current of river

Mein tera kinara hoon

I am your shore

Tu mera sahara hai

You are my refuge

Mein tera sahara hoon

I am your refuge

Aankhon mein samandar hai

There is an ocean in eyes

Aashaon ka paani hai

Which has waters of our hopes

Zindagi aur kuchh bhi nahi

Life is nothing else but

Teri meri kahaani hai

A story of you and me

Ek pyar ka nagma hai

It is a Song of love

Toofaan to aana hai

The storm has to come

Aakar chale jaana hai

It has to go after coming

Baadal hai ye kuchh pal ka

This cloud is only there for a few moments

Chhaakar dhal jaana hai

After clouding over, it will disappear

Parchhaainyaan reh jaatin

Only shadows are left

Reh jaati nishaani hai

Souvenirs are left

Zindagi aur kuchh bhi nahin

Life is nothing else but

Teri meri kahaani hai

A story of you and me

Ek pyar ka nagma hai

It is a Song of love

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkvV2BGpe9k

The lyrics and translation are taken from wikipedia…….

वैष्णव जन तो तेने कहिये जे पीड पराई जाणे रे,

पर दु:खे उपकार करे तोये मन अभिमान न आणे रे,

सकल लोकमां सहुने वंदे निंदा न करे केनी रे,

वाच काछ मन निश्चल राखे धन धन जननी तेनी रे,

समदृष्टि ने तृष्णा त्यागी, परस्त्री जेने मात रे,

जिह्वा थकी असत्य न बोले,परधन नव झाले हाथ रे,

मोह माया व्यापे नहि जेने,दृढ़ वैराग्य जेना मनमां रे,

रामनाम शुं ताली रे लागी,सकल तीरथ तेना तनमां रे,

वणलोभी ने कपटरहित छे,काम क्रोध निवार्या रे,

भणे नरसैयॊ तेनु दरसन करतां,कुल एकोतेर तार्या रे ॥

English Translation……

He who understands the pain of others is one of God’s own.

Helping others in sorrow does not reduce his humility.

This person respects all people in the world,

and does not condemn or criticize anyone.

He is pure in speech, deed and thought.

His mother is blessed indeed!

He is equanimous and has given up all desires.

To him, other women are [equivalent to] mothers.

He never speaks the untruth, not even if his tongue is tired.

He does not covet others’ wealth.

Delusion and attachment do not affect him,

his mind is firm in detachment.

He is ever engrossed in God’s name and meditation,

and he embodies all places of pilgrimage.

Such a person has no greed and deceit.

He has overcome lust and anger.

Narsi says: Such a person is worthy of worship,

and alone elevates his entire race.

Posting the English translation too…….

If they answer not to thy call walk alone,
If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,
O thou unlucky one,
open thy mind and speak out alone.
If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,
O thou unlucky one,
trample the thorns under thy tread,
and along the blood-lined track travel alone.
If they do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm,
O thou unlucky one,
with the thunder flame of pain ignite thy own heart
and let it burn alone.
