(nagarii-nagarii dvaare-dvaare Dhuun-Dhuun re saanvariyaa)2
I have been looking for you in every city, knocking on every door, oh my beloved
piiyaa-piiyaa ratate mai to ho gaii re baanvariyaa
I am going crazy calling out for you(piya= lover, husband)

nagarii-nagarii dvaare-dvaare Dhuun-Dhuun re saanvariyaa
I have been looking for you in every city, knocking on every door, oh my beloved

bedardii baalam ne mohe (phuunkaa Gam kii aag mein)2
my heartless beloved, threw me into the fires of agony
birahaa kii chingaarii bhar do (dukhiyaa ke suhaag mein)2
instead of vermillion you filled that part with pain of separation
pal-pal manavaa roe chhalake nainon kii gagariyaa
my heart cries every moment, tears are flowing from my eyes

nagarii-nagarii dvaare-dvaare Dhuun-Dhuun re saanvariyaa
I have been looking for you in every city, knocking on every door, oh my beloved

aaii thii ankhiyon mein lekar (sapane kyaa-kyaa pyaar ke)2
I had come with dreams of love in my eyes
jaatii huun do aansuu lekar (aashaaen sab haar ke)2
now I am leaving with tears in my eyes, and have lost everything
duniyaa ke mele mein lut gaii jiivan kii gathariyaa
in the fiesta of the world, I lost my reason for living

darshan ke do (pyaase/thirsty) nainaa (jiivan bhar na soenge)2
My eyes thirst for one look of you, will never sleep in this lifetime
bichha.De saajan tumare kaaraN (raato.n ko ham roenge)2
O sepereated beloved, for you, I will cry every night of my life
ab na jaane raamaa kaise biitegii umariyaa
Now I don't know how I will spend my life.

nagarii-nagarii dvaare-dvaare Dhuun-Dhuun re saanvariyaa
I have been looking for you in every city, knocking on every door, oh my beloved
piiyaa-piiyaa ratate mai to ho gaii re baanvariyaa

birahaa( a state when lovers are seperated and sad)
chingaari( a tiny spark of fire)
bhar do ( fill)
suhaag(married women fill their hair parting with sindoor to signify they are married)

quote:
Nagri nagri (Mother India), one of Lata's most heartfelt, most heartbreaking songs. Naushad's unfussy orchestration lets the pain of the situation filter across almost entirely through his singer. Whether her micro-pause (sigh?) between dhoondhoon re and saawariya is intentional or not, it's just one of the reasons this is one of the greatest sad songs ever.

(duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa )2
If life is like poison, one sometimes drink the poison

(gir gir ke musibat mein sambhalate hi rahenge
In tough times you fall, but one must get up and keep going
jal jaen magar aag pe chalate hi ragenge )2
Even though one is burning , one must keep walking on the fire
(Gam jisane diye)2 hain vahi Gam dur karega )2
The one who(GOD) has given sadness in life, will find a way to replace it with happiness.

(duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa )2
but life is like poison, so one sometimes drink the poison

(malik hai tere sath na Dar Gam se tu ye dil
Oh my heart, don't be afraid, because God is with you
mehanat kare insaan to kya kam hai mushkil)2
If a person is hardworking , any thing is possible
(jaisa jo kare)2ga yahaan vaisa hi bharega)2
Ones own actions will beget a response.

duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa
but life is like poison, so one sometimes drink the poison

aurat hai vahi aurat jise duniyaa ki sharm hai
A woman that observes propriety is an examplary woman
sansar mein bas aaj hi nari ka dharm hai
in this world, a woman keeps her integrety in adverse circumstances
[b](not doing anything shameful. )
zinda hai jo izzat se vahi izzat se marega
The woman that lives with integrety and dies with the same is looked upon as being pure.

duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa
but life is like poison, so one sometimes drink the poison

45) Chand Phir Nikla..............(Paying Guest 1957)
http://www.musicindiaonline.com/p/x/zVmmgZReat.As1NMvHdW/

(Chaand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
The moon came out yet again, but you never came
Jala phir mera dil karoon kya main haay)2
I can feel my heart burning(from the pain) ohh what should I do?
Chaand phir nikla
The moon came out yet again

(Yeh raat kehti hai woh din gaye tere
This night has come with the message that the good old days are gone
Yeh jaanta hai dil ke tum nahin mere)2
My heart finally knows that you do not belong to me
Khadi hoon main phir bhi nigahein bichaye
but still, I am standing here waiting for you, with my eyes on the road
Main kya karoon haay ke tum yaad aaye
Oh what should I do, I am remembering you yet again

Chaand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
The moon came out yet again, but you never came
Jala phir mera dil karoon kya main haay
I can feel my heart burning(from the pain)oh what should I do?
Chaand phir nikla
The moon came out yet again

(Sulagte seene se dhuaan sa uthtaa hain
Sulagte= slow burning fire- slow but burns for the long time
from my burning heart the smoke is rising
Lo ab chale aao ke dam ghuthta hain)2
Please, I can' t stand it any more,come back now, I feel as if I am choking
Jala gayi tan ko baharon ke saaye
The shade of the spring(your love) burnt (oxymoron) my body
Main kya karoon haay ke tum yaad aaye
oh what should I do, your memory came back again

Chaand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
The moon came out yet again, but you never came
Jala phir mera dil karoon kya main haay
I can feel my heart burning(from the pain) ohh what should I do?
Chaand phir nikla
The moon came out yet again

Trans:Ranjana

The meaning of the song literally, Chand Phir Nikla: but needs to be affixed correctly.

The Moon has just come out. Yet, you have not come to see me. My heart is burning. What can I do now?

This night is telling me that those good old days are gone. My heart is telling me that you are no longer mine. Even then, I am still waiting with my eyes wide open (with the hope that someday you will still come back to meet me). I do not know what to do since thoughts of you come to my mind.

The smoke is coming out of fire burning inside my heart. I feel choked now, please come back to me. The shadow from spring has burnt my whole body. I do not know what to do since thoughts of you come to my mind.

How similar this song is to Rasik Balama...........it is said that they are from the same Raaga Shudh Kalyan which is a very popular Raga with reference to classical music:

Both songs were composed independently by two music directors. Since both songs were composed on Raga Shudh Kalyan, both have the same bandishi or pakkad. And this is the reason why both songs sound so similar. There was no question of one being a copy of the other. In those golden years of 1950s, one could not even think of plagiarism, which unfortunately is rampant in some of the present day Hindi film music. Both songs were brilliantly sung by the great Lata Mangeshkar. The immortal Lata Mangeshkar has stated that these two songs are two of the best songs of her career among her other favorite songs such as Aaja re pardesi (Film: Madhumati), Ayega aanewala (Film: Mahal) and Ye zindagi usiki hai (Film: Anarkali).
............................................................................................
quote:
Yes both the songs, Rasik Balma and the song above are based on the same raga and both the compositions are beautiful. The beauty of the lyrics is evident in both the songs as well. The mood is the same but the expression of the mood is different.
Well, the song has to fit in the movie and needs to be in context. Well in the good old day of Bollywood, the theme was usually the same.
Both the songs are indeed beautifully sung. Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention.

Ai malik tere bande ham, Aise hoon hamare kadam
Oh Lord, we are Your people (devotees/believers), Let our deeds be such
Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Taki hanste huye nikale dam, Ai malik tere bande ham
So that the final breath can be taken with a smile, Oh Lord we are your people

Bada kamzor hai adami, Ab bhi lakhon hain ismen kamin
Mankind is extremely weak, Still having numerous deficiencies
Par tu jo khada, Hai dayalu bada
But You who stand by us, Always so compassionate and merciful
Teri kirpa se dharti thami
Sustaining the earth by Your grace
Diya tune hamen jab janam, Tu hi jhelega ham sabke gam
You are the Creator, Only You can help us endure our trials and tribulations

Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Ai malik tere bande ham,
Oh Lord, we are Your people

(Jab zulmon ka ho samana,)2 Tab tu hi hamen thamana
When confronted with atrocities, Then may we have Your support
Wo buraii karen, Ham bhalai bharen
While others may commit evil deeds, May we adhere to the righteous
Nahin badale ki ho kamana
With no desire for vengeance
Badh uthe pyar ka har kadam, Aur mite bair ka ye bharam
May love bloom, And may suspicion and hostilities be eliminated
Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Ai malik tere bande ham,
Oh Lord, we are Your people

Ye andhera ghana chha raha, Tera insan ghabara raha
Pitch darkness is setting in, Mankind is in turmoil and agitation
Ho raha bekhabar, Kuchh na ata nazar
In a diminishing state of consciousness, Nothing is visible
Sukh ka suraj chhipa ja raha
The sun of comfort is disappearing
Hai teri roshani men wo dam, Jo amavas ko kar de poonam
The energy of Your light can brighten up a moonless night
Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Ai malik tere bande ham,
Oh Lord, we are Your people

Oh my beloved, why did I give my heart to you.

Oh why did I start loving you? your love is killing me painfully
rasik balama.......

When I think about you and remember that face so dear to me
nehaa lagaa ke haaree, tadapoo main gam kee maaree
My eyes gets tired waiting for you, I am in pain with your sorrows

dhoondhe hain paagal nainaa, paaye naa yek pal chainaa
My eyes are going crazy looking for you, I am not able to relax even for a moment
dasatee hain ujalee rainaa, kaa se kahoo main bah naa
the brightness of the day time stings me like a serpant's bite, With whom should I share my pain?

NB. Actually, when this song was being picturized on actress Nargis, Nargis declared that she would not require any Glycerin on her eyes to emote for this song. After hearing the song, Nargis knew that there was no need to use Glycerin during the picturization of the song, since the great Lata Mangeshkar had already used her deep emotions while singing the song, and that was enough to create natural tears. Glycerin is normally used in the film industry to create tears artificially in the eyes of the actor or actress for sad scenes.

From reliable sources, it is known that the above song Rasik Balma was composed by Jaikisan of the famous Shankar-Jaikisan duo. Generally, the opening (sthaayi) of the song is set within a medium octave, but this song opens on a very high note. During recording, Lataji had pointed this out to Jaikisanji saying that people are going to blame her for singing this song at such a high pitch and people might say that they cannot even hum it! But the brilliant Jaikisan told Lata Mangeshkar that the beauty of this song lied entirely on singing it at a high pitch, and finally the song was sung at a high pitch and the rest is history.

The song and movie are both classics and bring the Mughal Empire to life. Lata was probably a teenager when she sang it. I saw the colorized version of the movie, it's a true masterpiece and comparable to Western classics.

Kis Ne Hai Ye Riit Banaa_Ii
who has made this strange tradition?
Aandhii Mein Ek Diip Jalaayaa
it is as absurd as to light a little lamp in the storm
Aur Paanii Mein Aag Lagaa_Ii
and light a fire in the water

67) MERA DIL AB TERE O SAJANA...........DIL APNA AUR PREET PARAYE
http://www.dishant.com/jukebox.php?songid=39417

meraa dil ab teraa o saajanaa
My heart is now yours, o dear.
kaisaa jaadu pheraa o saajanaa - 2
what magic you have done, o dear.
meraa dil...

nain hamaare tum sang laage
My eyes are involved/entangled with you.
tum sang prit hamaari
My love is with you.
man bhaaye tum jaano na jaano
My heart says whether you know it or not,
jaane hai duniyaa saari
the world knows it,
koyi aur na meraa, o saajanaa
nobody else is mine (you are the one ), o dear.
meraa dil...

morani ban ke raah takuun main
Becoming a peahen I will wait for you.
tum baadal ban jaao
You become the clowd.
mere pyaase rom rom pe, ras barasaate jaao
On my thirsty body, you keep showering.
teraa dil mein baseraa o saajanaa
You resides in my heart, o dear.
meraa dil...

pyaar kaa bandhan janam janam kaa
The bond of love which continues from life to life,
saans ke sang hi tuute
it would end with our breath.
saare hi rang phike pad jaaye
Although all the colors become light,
pyaar kaa rang na chhute
the color of love should never escape.
tuune tan man gheraa o saajanaa
You surrounded/grabbed my body and soul, o dear.
meraa dil...

http://www.channeldosti.com/oldies/Lata%20Hits/O%20Sajna%20Barkha.mp3

O Sajanaa
Oh my darling
(O sajanaa, barakhaa bahaar aai
O Beloved, the beautiful wet season is here
rasa kii phuhaara laai, ankhiyoon me pyaar laai)2
brought juicy droplets with it, eyes filled with love
o sajanaa.......
O darling

(tumako pukaare mere mana kaa papiharaa)2
Calling out to you are my heartbeats
Mithii mithii aganii mein, jale moraa jiyaraa
In sweet flaming passion is burning my body

O sajanaa, barakhaa bahaar aai
O Beloved, the beautiful wet season is here
rasa kii phuhaara laai, ankhiyoon me pyaar laai
brought juicy droplets with it, eyes filled with love
o sajanaa.......

(aisi rimajhima mein o saajan, pyaase pyaase mere nayana
In this rain, my darling, my hungry eyes
tere hii, khvaaba mein, kho gae)2
are lost in your dreams
saanvalii saloni ghataa, jab jab chhaai
Whenever the dark clouds have overcasted
ankhiyon mein rainaa gai, nindiyaa na aai
The darkness from eyes have gone, gone is my sleep

O sajanaa, barakhaa bahaar aai
O Beloved, the beautiful wet season is here
rasa kii phuhaara laai, ankhiyoon me pyaar laai
brought juicy droplets with it, eyes filled with love
o sajanaa.......

(ehsaan tera hoga mujh par
you will be doing me a great favour
dil chahta hai woh kehne do
if you let me say what the heart desires
mujhe tumse mohabbat ho gayi hai
I have fallen in love with you
mujhe palko ki chaav mein rehne do)2
let me stay in the shelter of your eyes

(tumne mujhko hasna sikhaaya ho)2
You have taught me to laugh
(rone kahoge ro lenge ab)2
If you ask me to cry, I will
aansoo ka hamaare gham na karo
Do not feel bad about my tears
woh behte hai to behne do
Let it flow if it wants to

Either make it or destroy it
(mar bhi gaye to denge duvaayen)2
Even if I die, I will sing your praises
udd udd ke kahegi khaak sanam
Flying around, the dust/ashes will say my love
yeh dard-e-mohabbat sehne do
Let me tolerate the sorrows of love
mujhe tumse mohabbat ho gayi hai
I have fallen in love with you
mujhe palko ki chaav mein rehne do
Let me stay in your eyes forever

ehsaan tera hoga mujh par
you will be doing me a great favour
dil chahta hai woh kehne do
if you let me say what the heart desires
mujhe tumse mohabbat ho gayi hai
I have fallen in love with you
mujhe palko ki chaav mein rehne do
let me stay in the shelter of your eyes
ehsaan tera hoga mujh par
You will be doing me a great favor

MUSHKIL HAI BAHUT HAI MUSHKIL:.........MAHAL 1949:
http://www.mastimag.com/songs/old-songs/old-indian-song...5D(MastiMag.com).mp3

mushkil hai
It is difficult
mushkil hai ai ai ai
It is difficult

mushkil hai bahut mushkil (chaahat ka bhula dena)2
It is really difficult to forget your love
aasaan nahin dil ki (yeh aag bujha dena)2
It is not easy to put out the fire of love in the heart

(yeh khel nahin lekin yeh khel hai ulfat ka)2
This is not a game, one should take it seriously
roton ko hansa dena (hanston ko rulaa dena)2
A crying person can be made happy, and a happy person can
be reduced to tears

mushkil hai bahut mushkil
It is really difficult

(dilwalon ki duniya mein hai rasm ke jab koi)2
In the land of love, the tradition is such that
aaye to qadam lena (jaaye to duaa dena)2
When one enters one must pace themselves,(take things
slowly) and when they leaves pray for them because they
will be leaving devastated

mushkil hai bahut mushkil
It is really difficult

(uljhan hai bahut phir bhi hum (tum ko na bhoolenge)2/2
It is a problem, but I would not be able to forget you
mumkin to nahin lekin (tum hum ko bhula dena 2)
I do not think it will be possible, but you should try to
forget about me

mushkil hai bahut mushkil (chaahat ka bhula dena)2
It is really difficult to forget your love
