kyuuN
Why?
kyuuN , na ham tum
chale TeRhe meRhe se raastoN pe naNge paaNv re
chal , bhaTak le na baavre
Why not, you and I?
Walking barefoot on zigzagging roads,
come, wander away, crazy one, won't you?
kyuuN , na ham tum
phire jaa ke almast pɛhchaanii raahoN ke pare
chal , bhaTak le na baavre
Why not, you and I?
Going roaming, intoxicated, beyond knowm routes,
come, wander away, crazy one, won't you?
in TimTimaatii nigaahoN meN
in chamachmaatii adaaoN meN
luke hue , chhupe hue
haiN kyaa xayaal
[ movie scenes follow ]
In these glimmering looks,
in these sparkling gestures,
concealed, hidden,
what thoughts are there?
[movie scenes follow]
milte hai yuuN
har ek Dagar jaane kyuuN
kaisii ye dhun hai
achchhaa hai buraa kyaa shagun hai
bataa kahaaN hai teraa gaaNv re
chalaa jaa sang baavre
It is meeting (me) like this
every single path, who knows why
What perseverance is this?
The omen is bad or good?
Oh, tell where your village is!
Go with me, crazy one!
sun khanakhnaatii hai zindagii
le , hameN bulaatii hai zindagii
jo karnaa hai vo aaj kar
na is ko Taal baavre
Listen, life is jingling
Do, as life is calling out for us
whatever must be done today,
don't postpone it, crazy one!
kyuuN , na ham tum
chale zindagii ke nashe meN hii dhut sarphire
chal , bhaTak le na baavre
Why not, you and I?
Walking intoxicated with life, just mad-drunk,
come, wander away, crazy one, won't you?
kyuuN , na ham tum
talaasheN baGiichoN meN fursat bharii chhaaoN meN
chal bhaTak le na baavre
Why not, you and I?
Let's search in the the gardens, the rest in my shade.
Come, wander away, crazy one, won't you?
in gungunaatii fizaaoN meN
in sarasraatii havaaoN meN
Tukur-Tukur yuuN dekhe kyaa
kyaa teraa Haal baavre
In these murmuring airs
In these hissing breezes
Why/what are you staring in such way?
What is your condition (how are you), crazy one?
