घूम ताना
Touch on each word to display its meaning
तनहा ऐसे क्यूँ बेचैन फिरे
जागेंगे ज़रूर ये भाग तैरे
कोई जाने न यह जोश तेरा
कोई जाने न जुनून तेरा
Why do you wander around so restless?
These fortunes of yours will improve
No one knows this zeal of yours
No one knows this zeal of yours
घूम ताना , ताना ना ना ना
घूम ताना , ताना ना
[ both lines x2 ]
Spin the weave!
Spin the weave!
[both lines x2]
तनहा ऐसे क्यूँ बेचैन फिरे
जागेंगे ज़रूर ये भाग तैरे
कोई जाने न यह जोश तेरा
कोई जाने न जुनून तेरा
Why do you wander around so restless?
These fortunes of yours will improve
No one knows this zeal of yours
No one knows this zeal of yours
घूम ताना , ताना ना ना ना
घूम ताना , ताना ना
[ both lines x2 ]
Spin!
Spin
[both lines x2]
दिल से दिलों को जीतना
मुश्किल से न डरना
रंग बरसेगा यहाँ
दिन हो या फिर रैना
Win hearts with your heart
Don’t be afraid of difficulties
Color will shower here
Be it day or night again
घूम ताना , ताना ना ना ना
घूम ताना , ताना ना
[ both lines x2 ]
Spin the weave!
Spin the weave!
[both lines x2]
बड़ी दूर है अभी जाना
मायूस न कभी होना
अंधेरे में भी
वीराने में भी
खिलेगी कोई कली
You still have a long way to go
Don’t ever lose hope
Even in darkness,
even in desolation,
some bud will blossom
तनहा ऐसे क्यूँ बेचैन फिरे
जागेंगे ज़रूर ये भाग तैरे
कोई जाने न यह जोश तेरा
कोई जाने न जुनून तेरा
Why do you wander around so restless?
These fortunes of yours will improve
No one knows this zeal of yours
No one knows this zeal of yours
तू ही मेरा प्यार है कैसे जानें लोग [ x2 ]
क्या कभी मुमकिन नहीं संजोग
You are my only love, how would people know?
Will it never be feasible (our) conjunction?
घूम ताना , ताना ना ना ना
घूम ताना , ताना ना
[ both lines x2 ]
Spin the weave!
Spin the weave!
[both lines x2]
जोगिया वे सुन मेरी बात ! [ x4 ]
Oh, saint,listen to my word [x4]

ghuum taanaa (Hindi:घूम ताना, Urdu: گھوم-تانا ) is a song featured in 2017 at season 10 of the Pakistani musical TV show Coke Studio.
The phrase ghuum taanaa can be roughly translated as "spin the warp", "spin the weave", etc. It has mystical connotations related to the spinning of the world, the thread of fate, the chakra wheel, or a general sense of wandering.
It is a very common phrase in South Asian compositions (especially those of Sufi inspiration) so it might evoke as well the whirling dance style of the Sufis'.
However, the phrase is most likely used as a generic musical beat, rather than for any specific meaning of its words.
The song was originally part of the 2004 album "Dewaar", by the Sufi-rock band Pakistani Junoon.
The song was written and composed by Salman Ahmad, Junoon's founder. He claims it to be a semi-autobiographical song, related to his family's migration from Patiala to Lahore (from modern-day India to Pakistan respectively). The lyrics were written in collaboration with Sabir Zafar.
In the Coke Studio feature presentation of this song, the singers were Momina Mustehsan along with the all-female, a capella group Irteassh, and Coke Studio's in-house vocalists).
