جِیت
Touch on each word to display its meaning
بہکی سبھی زُبان ہے ،
ہَم ہَیں ہزاروں میں ۔
اب کی کمی ذرا ہے ،
ہر چِیز خاص ہے ۔
All language is misleading,
we are in the thousands.
The shortcomings of now are but a few,
every thing is special.
اب ہے جو ہے وہ سَما ہے ،
تُم رَہ سکے تو ربّا ہے ۔
اب ہے جو ہے وہ سَما ہے ،
تُم رَہ سکے …
The "now" is what it is, it's the time,
if you can stay (in it), you are God
The "now" is what it is, it's the time,
if you can stay …
ایسی جِیت ،
اب چاہے زِنْدَگی ۔
[ both lines x2 ]
ہائے …
ہائے …
Such a victory,
life wants the "now".
[both lines x2]
Ah! …
Ah! …
سَہْنی ہَمِیں سَجا ہے ،
ہَم ہَیں بازاروں میں ۔
سب کی نظر یہاں ہے ،
ہر چِیز راز ہے ۔
We must endure punishment,
we are among the common folk.
The sight of all is here,
every think is a mystery.
اب ہے جو وہ سَما ہے ،
تُم رَہ سکے تو ربّا ہے ۔
اب ہے جو ہے وہ سَما ہے ،
تُم رَہ سکے …
The "now" is what it is, it's the time,
if you can stay (in it), you are God
The "now" is what it is, it's the time,
if you can stay …
ایسی جِیت ،
اب چاہے زِنْدَگی ۔
[ both lines x2 ]
ہائے …
Such a victory,
life wants the "now".
[both lines x2]
Ah! …
ایسی زِنْدَگی ہَم [ chip ] چِھپائیں ،
ہَم نَہ آئے آئے آئے ، ہَم نَہ آئے ۔
ایسی جِیت [ chip ] چِھپائیں ،
ایسی جِیت ہَم نَہ پائے ۔
[ all stanza x2 ]
We conceal/keep back such a life,
we don't get it, we don't get it.
We conceal/keep back such a victory,
we don't achieve such a victory.
[all stanza x2]
ایسی جِیت ،
نَہ [ chip ] چِھپائیں [ x3 ]
ایسی جِیت ،
نَہ [ chip ] چِھپائیں [ x3 ]
ہائے …
Such a victory,
let's not keep it back/conceal it [x3]
Such a victory,
let's not keep it back/conceal it [x3]
Ah! …
About this song
- Music
- Ritviz
jiit (Hindi:जीत, Urdu: جِیت) "Victory", is a song and video clip released in 2018, written and composed by the Indian techno musician Ritviz.
The song's lyrics speak about the importance of seizing the present moment, of enjoying the "now".
The meaning and grammar of the lyrics are a little unclear, the words mostly contribute to provide an ambiance.
In the video clip, three young women who perform very humble jobs (a street seamstress, a fruit seller, and an auto-rickshaw driver), make a pause in their tasks and go together in an evening outing, enjoying their friendship and the simple pleasures of life.
At the end of the video, they resume their work, and the rickshaw driver picks up Ritviz himself.
The three women are played by the actresses Rytasha Rathore, Dimple Paul, and Veronica Vanij.
