Chadhti lehrein laangh na paye kyun haapti si naav hai teri, naav hai teri
means: It's (the boat) unable to cross upward waves, why is your your boat moving sideways
tinka tinka jod ke saanse kyun haanpti si naav hai teri naav hai teri
adding little breaths like straws, why is your your boat moving sideways
Ulti behti dhaar hai bairi, dhaar hai bairi
Enemy stream is going in the opposite direction
Ke ab kuch kar ja re panthi
Do something o traveller
jigar juta kya baat baandh le hai baat thehri jaan pe teri jaan pe teri
be courageous, be confirmed that this thing is important as your life
Haiya Ho Ki Taan Saath Le Jo Baat Tehri Jaan Pe Teri Shaan Pe Teri
Keep singing Haiya ho (as in, be bold, fearless) as this thing is related to your life and pride
Chal Jeet Jeet Lehra ja Parcham tu laal Phehra Ja
Go wave with victory, hoist the red flag
Ab Kar Ja Tu Ya Mar Ja Karle Taiyari
Now do or die, and be prepared
Udja Banke Dhoop Ka Panchi chura ke gehri chhaon Andheri Chaao Andheri
Become the bird of sunshine and fly, stealing the black shadows
Rakh Dega JhakJhor ke tujhe Tufano Ka Ghor Hai Dera Ghor Hai Dera
It'll shake you to the core, it's a huge camping of storms
Bhanwar Se dar Jo Haar Maan Le Kaheka Phir Jor Hai Tera Jor Hai Tera
(but) if your fear goes into submission against whirlpool, what is your power
Hai Dil Mei Roshni Tere
There is light in your heart
Tu Cheer Daal Sab Ghere
Break all the Sieges
Lehron Ki Gardan Kas Ke Daal Phande Re
Tie the necks of waves tight
Ki Dariya Bole waaha Re Panthi Sar Ankhon Pe Naav Hai Teri Naav Hai Teri
such that the river says wow O traveller, your boat is on my head and on my eyes
(a proverb that would mean I respect your boat)
Chadti Lehren Laangh Na Paaye Kyun Hanpti Si Naav Hai Teri Naav Hai Teri..
hey...
ReplyDeleteliked the meaning of lyrics. very well written.
I was having difficulty in understanding a few lines.
I think the lyrics are great
Haapti means out of breath

ReplyDeleteTo me, out of breath is haanfna. Earlier I thought that was the word, but it sounds different.
This is a fantastic song, very well written and from the soul. I can imagine the struggle in life that the writer must have gone through. Very Inspirational. Just can't get my boat (mind) over this wave (song).....
