[Parallel_Worlds]

Tere Bina

Dum dara dum dara mast mast dara - 2
Dum dara dum dum
Oh hum dum bin tere kya jeena
Oh lover what's life without you?

Tere bina beswaadi
beswaadi ratiyaan, Oh sajna
without you the nights are colorless, flavorless (beswaad - without any flavor, tasteless)
Rookhi re oh rookhi re,
and sickly, like a malady
Kaatore kaate katena
try as I might, it won't pass

Na jaa chaakri ka mare na ja
don't go Don't go for the sake of duty
Souten pukaare
your lover is calling out to you My rival calls out to you
Saawan aayega toh poochega
when the rains come they'll ask where you are
Na ja re
please don't go

Pheeki pheeki beswaadhi
colorless, flavorless
Yeh Ratiyaan
are these nights
Kaatore kate na kate na
and they won't pass quickly
Ab tere bina sajna sajna
without you my lover
Kaate Kate na
Katena Katena tere bina
Tere bina beswaadi beswaadi
ratiyaan, Oh Sajna Oh

Tere bina chand ka sona khota re
without you the moonlight appears fake
Peeli peeli dhool udaawe jhoota re
everything is false, like dust in my eyes (im not sure if I'm right)Even the twirling dust in the morning rays appears fake
Tere bina sona peetal
without you gold is just brass
Tere sang keethar peepal
when you're there everything is wonderful (I don't now what keethar and peepal stand for here, so I've given the general meaning)
Aaja katena ratiyaan

Dum dara dum dara mast mast dara - 2
Dum dara dm dum oh hum dum
Bin tere kya jeena

PW I didn't add about the rival coz I don't think there is a souten in the movie.

Thanx for that other part.

Maybe it's symbolic, apparently Guru has to leave for "duty", which is considered the other woman keeping him away from his wife.

Ah! That could very well be it.  Thanx.

I noticed Mayya isn't translated...after just seeing a video on the song i found out that 'Mayya Mayya' means water according to Rahman.  In fact he had never even heard the word till someone was handing out water screaming 'mayya mayya' - so hope that might help with the translation....

[Prem Rogue]

Is "peepal" referring to the peepal tree?

What dialect is this song in? And can ANYONE translate it? I LOVE this song....

[Naina-Liza]

Hope this translation is correct 

[James]

It seems to be fairly standard Hindi to me, Jennifer.

[humsurfer]

It seems to be fairly standard Hindi to me, Jennifer.

Jennifer, they're singing in an Arab fashion, but the language itself is standard Hindi.

[James]

Jennifer, they're singing in an Arab fashion, but the language itself is standard Hindi.

I should mention I haven't heard the song and I was judging by the lyrics here.

[sulymon]

Yeah, the song definately has a middle-eastern flavor to it... she sounds like she has some sort of an accent- and some parts sound arabic-

but James, how could you tell without having heard the song? thats amazing...

[James]

but James, how could you tell without having heard the song? thats amazing...

Not really!    Just like you can tell if someone is speaking in a dialect in English by word choice and sentence structure, you can do the same with Hindi (it's actually easier to do in Hindi since different dialects pronounce words differently and that gets reflected in the spelling when it often doesn't in English).  And with Hindi, the different dialects often add endings to words that don't exist in the standard spelling, that indicate it's a dialect.  None of that was present here, so it seemed safe to say that the sections that are Hindi according to what I read here are standard Hindi.

[zippy]

There is some Arabic in the song. Sounds like it to me anyway. ARR also said there is some Gujrati. But most of it is in Hindi.

[zippy]

Feel free to correct. I did the best I could. Glad to finally know what it means! Listened to it so many times.

Mayya
Water

Thoo Neel Samundar Hai (X2)
you are the blue sea
Main Reth Ka Saahil Hoon (X2)
i am the sandy shore
Aaghosh Mein Le Le
take me in your arms
Main Der Se Pyaasi Hoon
i've been thirsty for a long time
Ek Sauda Raat Ka, Ek Kaudi Chaand Ki
a business of the night, a piece of the moon
Chaahe Toh Choom Le, Tu Todi Chaand Ki
if you want to, kiss a part of the moon
Ek Sauda Raat Ka, Ek Kaudi Chaand Ki
Chaahe Toh Choom Le, Tu Todi Chaand Ki
Ek Chaand Ki Kashthi Mein
in a ship to the moon
Chal Paar Utarna Hai
we need to get across
Tu Halke Halke Khenaa Daariya Na Chalke
take it easy, that the sea doesn't take us
Mayya Mayya Gulaabi Taaren Chun Le, Saare Chun
water .. water, if you touch a rosy star, choose them all
Mayya Mayya Ki Jism Ke Pardon Mein Dardon Ke Maarey Chun Le
water .. water, and choose the veiled body where the pain has killed
Mayya Mayya Gulaabi Taaren Chun Le, Saare Chun
Mayya Mayya Ki Jism Ke Pardon Mein Dardon Ke Maarey Chun Le
Jab Neel Samundar Jaage
when the sea awakens
Aaghosh Me Lekar Saahil
it embraces the shore
Lehraathaa Hai Aur Masti Mein
it waves, and in lust
Mehtaab Ke Chehra Choomthaa Hai
it kisses the face
Mayya ...
Main Seene Mein
my chest
Teri saasen Bhar Leti Hoon
i fill it with your breaths
Karwat Karwat Main Tujh Se Lipatkar
when i turn at night, i cling to you
Raat Basarkar Lethi Hoon
i pass the night
Mayya Mayya Mayya Mayya
water ...
Seene Se Mere Utthaa Hai Dhuwaan
smoke rises from my chest
Mayya Mayya Mayya Mayy
Deewar Pe Kya Likhthaa Hai Dhuwaan
what does the smoke write on the wall
Dheemaa Dheemaa Dheemaa Dhuwaan
slowly, slowly, slowly the smoke
Har Baar Yeh Kya Kehtaa Hai Dhuwaan
what does the smoke say all the time
Mayya Mayya Ale Le Le (X2)
Ek Sauda Raat Ka, Ek Kaudi Chaand Ki
a business of the night, a piece of the moon
Chaahe Toh Choom Le, Tu Todi Chaand Ki
if you want to, kiss a part of the moon
Ek Megh Ki Kashthi Mein
in a ship of clouds
Chal Paar Utarna Hai, Tu Halke Halke Khenaa
we need to sail across, take it easy
Dariyaa Na Chalke
that the sea doesn't take us
Mayya Mayya .... Ale Le Aaya Le Le Aaya Le
Mayya Mayya ....Ye Liliyaya Liliyaya Ye El Li He
Mayya Mayya Ale Le Le (X2)
Walidaaaaa....
Ishta
Are Walida Walida
Maara Walida Walida Maara
Charpar Barse Charpar Barse Mehulo, Yevelo Yevelo
Charpar Barse Charpar Barse Mehulo, Hey Ji Re E Hey Ji Re E Ji Re E
Charpar Barse Charpar Barse Mehulo
Walidaa....Mayya Mayya, Ale Le He Habibi

The last parts are in Gujrati and Arabic. I can't do it. Hope this is ok.

[sonalstar]

Can someone please write the lyrics (hindi and english) for "Shauq hai" in GURU?  There were two parts of it, one where Vidya Balan was dying and the other at her funeral.  It's so beautifully sung, and I would really appreciate knowing what was being said.

Thanks

[vank]

Raat Ka Shauq Hai,
Raat Ki Saundhi Si,
Khamoshi Ka Shauq Hai.. Shauq Hai.. Shauq Hai.

Subah Ki Roshni,
Bezubaan Subah Ki Gungunaati,
Roshni Ka Shauq Hai.. Shauq Hai.. Shauq Hai

—

Sansani Navalon Ka,
Ishq Ki Bavalon Ka,
Sansani Navalon.. Ishq Ki Bavalon..
Barf Se.. Khelte..
Badalon Ka Shauq Hai.

[vank]

can someone translate shauq hai?? 

[Marija2000]

I tried translating “Mayya Mayya” but the song literally fought back! I finally managed.
By the way, “Mayya Mayya” is somewhat similar to “Rasiya” from “The Rising” (“Mangal Pandey”). If you listen to both songs back to back, it becomes quite obvious. A.R. Rahman becoming repetitive?

Mayya Mayya

Can someone translate the first part of Tere Bina before the song starts with "Dum dara dum dara mast mast" Here is the link to a video that has the the 1st part of the song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqNhu7Sbmf8 
It starts at 00:00 and ends at 00:30.

[Priya Sheikh]

doesn't this mean?

ghar mein ek bibiyonki jodi hoti to
so what happens if you get a pair (twins) from one wife?
so what happens if you have a pair of wives at home?

Hi my name is Priya and I would like to try answerin' the important questions.
When Abhishek in the movie Guru got to know that he becomes Daddy of Twins, he danced and sang this song.
And this sentences "ghar mein ek bibiyonki jodi hoti to" means something like "if you hav two women at home"
