Song 'Ishwar Allah' from movie '1947 Earth'.
ishwar allaah tere jahaan mein nafrat kyon hai jang hai kyon
God, why is there hatred in your world? Why is there war?
tera dil to itna bara hai insaan ka dil tang hai kyon
Your heart is so large; why is the heart of man so narrow?
ishwar allaah tere jahaan mein nafrat kyon hai jang hai kyon
God, why is there hatred in your world? Why is there war?
tera dil to itna baRa hai insaan ka dil tang hai kyon
Your heart is so large; why is the heart of man so narrow?
qadam qadam par sarhad kyon hai
Why are there boundaries at every step
saari zamin jo teri hai
when all the land is yours?
suraj ke phere karti hai phir kyon itni andheri hai
It revolves around the sun; why then is there so much darkness?
is duniya ke daaman par insaan ka lahu ka rang hai kyon
Why are the skirts of the world stained by the color of human blood?
ishwar allaah tere jahaan mein nafrat kyon hai jang hai kyon
God, why is there hatred in your world? Why is there war?
tera dil to itna baRa hai insaan ka dil tang hai kyon
Your heart is so large; why is the heart of man so narrow?
gunj rahi hai kitni chikhein pyaar ki baatein kaun sune
So many screams ring out; who will hear the words of love?
tuut rahe hain kitne sapne inke tukre kaun chune
So many dreams are shattering; who will gather up the pieces?
dil ke darvaazon par taale
Locks on the doors of our hearts;
taalon par yeh zang hai kyon
why have these locks rusted?
ishwar allaah tere jahaan mein nafrat kyon hai jang hai kyon
God, why is there hatred in your world? Why is there war?
tera dil to itna baRa hai insaan ka dil tang hai kyon
Your heart is so large; why is the heart of man so narrow?

Dheemi Dheemi
Song 'Dheemi Dheemi' from movie '1947 Earth'.
dheemi dheemi bheeni bheeni khushbu hai tera badan
Your body is a soft, subtle fragrance
sulage mahake pighale dahake
Once lit, it scents the air, melts, is consumed.
kyon na bahake mera man
Why should my heart not be staggered?
sulage mahake pighale dahake
Once lit, it scents the air, melts, is consumed.
kyon na bahake mera man
Why should my heart not be staggered?
voh chali havaa ki nasha ghulaa
A wind blows; magic spreads, dissolves;
hai samaan bhi jaise dhuaan dhuaan
this moment seems veiled by smoke.
tera ruup hai ki yeh dhuup hai
Your beauty is like sunlight;
khule baal hai ki hain badaliyaan
is this your unbound hair, or the clouds?
tu jo paas hai mujhe pyaas hai
Thirst strikes me when you're near:
tere jism ka ahasaas hai
I'm aware of your body.
tu jo paas hai mujhe pyaas hai
Thirst strikes me when you're near:
tere jism ka ahasaas hai
I'm aware of your body.
tu jo paas hai mujhe pyaas hai
Thirst strikes me when you're near:
dheemi dheemi bheeni bheeni khushbu hai tera badan
Your body is a soft, subtle fragrance
sulage mahake pighale dahake
Once lit, it scents the air, melts, is consumed.
kyon na bahake mera man
Why should my heart not be staggered?
sulage mahake pighale dahake
Once lit, it scents the air, melts, is consumed.
kyon na bahake mera mann
Why should my heart not be staggered?
saans bhi jaise ruk si jaati hai
It's as if my breath draws to a halt;
tu jo paas aa'e to aanch aati hai
heat strikes me when you come near.
dil ki dharkan bhi mere sine mein larkharaati hai
Even my heartbeat stumbles in my breast.
yeh tera tan badan kaisi hai yeh agan
This body of yours, what sort of fire is it?
thandhak hai jism tu voh aag hai
Your body is a cool flame,
balkhaati hai jo tu laharaati hai jo tu
you who twist, you who undulate.
lagta hai yeh badan ek raag hai
It seems your body is a melody.
voh chali havaa ki nasha ghulaa
A wind blows; magic spreads, dissolves;
hai samaan bhi jaise dhuaan dhuaan
this moment seems veiled by smoke.
tera ruup hai ki yeh dhuup hai
Your beauty is like sunlight;
khule baal hai ki hain badaliyaan
is this your unbound hair, or the clouds?
tu jo paas hai mujhe pyaas hai
Thirst strikes me when you're near:
tere jism ka ahasaas hai
I'm aware of your body.
tu jo paas hai mujhe pyaas hai
Thirst strikes me when you're near:
tere jism ka ahasaas hai
I'm aware of your body.
tu jo paas hai mujhe pyaas hai
Thirst strikes me when you're near:
dheemi dheemi bheeni bheeni khushbu hai tera badan
Your body is a soft, subtle fragrance
sulage mahake pighale dahake
Once lit, it scents the air, melts, is consumed.
kyon na bahake mera man
Why should my heart not be staggered?
sulage mahake pighale dahake
Once lit, it scents the air, melts, is consumed.
kyon na bahake mera man
Why should my heart not be staggered?

Yeh Jo Jindagi Hai
Song 'Yeh Jo Jindagi Hai' from movie '1947 Earth'.
jo afsaane dil ne bune unko koi dil hi sune
What stories the heart has woven, only another heart should hear them.
ham haule haule pyaar ki dhundhali fizaayon mein aaye
Slowly, slowly, we enter the misty atmospheres of love.
gahare gahare hain khwaab ki nili ghataayon ke saaye
The shadows of the blue clouds of dream are deep indeed.
ham tum donon khoye khoye
You and I are both lost,
sapne dekhe jaage soye
beholding dreams, sleeping or waking
gumsum hairaan
hushed and amazed.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
bahati hai chingaariyaan jaise
It's as if sparks flow
sar se paanvon tak nas nas mein
through my veins, from my head to the feet.
halka halka hosh hai lekin
My wits are light, refreshed ,
kuchh bhi nahin ab mere bas mein
but it's as if nothing is under my control now.
mere ang ang mein bechaini
Restlessness in my every limb;
bijali banke laharaayi
becoming lightning, it snakes through me.
ek meethe meethe dard ka baadal tan man par chhaaye
A cloud of sweet, sweet pain overshadows my body.
saanse.n uljhe dharke hai dil
My breath is tangled; my heart pounds;
jaane kaise meri mushkil hogi aasaan
who knows how my trouble will be eased?
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
PART TWO

This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
are kaash meri in aankhon ki ab roshani bujh jaaye
Oh, would that this light in my eyes were extinguished!
main ne dekha tha jo khwaab
The dream which I saw,
voh mujhko na kabhi yaad aaye
may I never think on it again!
aise barse gam ke teeshe toote dil ke saare sheeshe
Such was the rain of my sorrows that it shattered all the glass of my heart.
dil hai viraan
My heart is ruined.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi daastaan hai
This life is a story;
kab hoga kya yeh khabar kahaan hai
what will happen, there's no way to know.
yeh jo zindagi hai koi kaaravaan hai
This life is a caravan;
kahaan jaayegi yeh khabar kahaan hai
where it will go, there's no way to know.

Song 'Banno Rani' from movie '1947 Earth'.
banno raani tumhein siyaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
Oh queenly bride, you were destined to bloom.
ek raaja ki tumko raani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
You were destined to find your king.
banno raani ik din tumko banne raaja ke ghar Doli mein jaake
One day you would become a bride, going to your king's house in the bridal palanquin.
ham sakhiyon se yuun anjaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
You were destined to become a stranger to us, your friends.
banno raani tumhein siyaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
Oh queenly bride, you were destined to bloom.
nainon mein kaajal ke Dore
Around your eyes, the threads of kohl;
mehndi se rache haath gore
your fair hands are stained with henna.
jhumar tera dam dam damke
The pendant on your forehead shines;
jhumka tera jham jham jhamke
your earrings glitter;
haar gale mein jagmagaaye
the necklace round your throat sparkles.
aanchal tera resham resham
Your veil is silken;
haule haule maddham maddham
slowly, hesitantly,
tu man hi man muskaaye...
you smile to yourself.
sukh sapnon mein yuun mastaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
You were destined to grow drunk on happy dreams like this.
banno raani tumhein siyaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
Oh queenly bride, you were destined to bloom.
banne raaja jo paas aaye
When your lordly groom approches,
chaahe ki yeh ghunghta uthaaye
he'll want you to lift your veil.
dekho banno maan na jaana
Look here, o bride, don't heed him.
mukhra unko na dikhlaana
Don't show him your face.
pahale sau baatein manvaana
First get him to agree to a hundred things;
kahana bolo karke salaami
Tell him, "Bow down to me and say,
banno karunga teri gulaami
my bride, I will be your slave.
main to huun tera deewaana...
I'm mad for you."
tumhein deewaana tumhein deewaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
It was destined that he be mad for you, that she be mad for you!
banno raani tumhein siyaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
Oh queenly bride, you were destined to bloom.
ek raaja ki tumko raani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
You were destined to find your king.
banno raani ik din tumko banne raaja ke ghar doli mein jaake
One day you would become a bride, going to your king's house in the bridal palanquin.
ham sakhiyon se yuun anjaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
You were destined to become a stranger to us, your friends.
banno raani tumhein siyaani hona hi tha hona hi tha hona hi tha
Oh queenly bride, you were destined to bloom.

Raat Ki Daldal Hai
Song 'Raat Ki Daldal Hai' from movie '1947 Earth'.
raat ki daldal hai gaarhi re gaarhi re
The quicksand of night is thick and viscous;
dharkan ki chale kaise gaari re gaari re
how can the vehicle of my heartbeats proceed?
raat ki daldal hai gaarhi re gaarhi re
The quicksand of night is thick and viscous;
dharkan ki chale kaise gaari re gaari re
how can the vehicle of my heartbeats proceed?
sahami sahami hain dishaayein
All the directions quake with fear,
jaise kuchh khone ko hai
as though something is about to be lost.
saans roki hain hawaayein
The very winds have stopped breathing;
jaane kya hone ko hai
who knows what must happen now?
sahami sahami hain dishaayein
All the directions quake with fear,
jaise kuchh khone ko hai
as though something is about to be lost.
saans roki hain hawaayein
The very winds have stopped breathing;
jaane kya hone ko hai
who knows what must happen now?
maut chupi jhaari jhaari re jhaari re
Death lurks behind every bush.
raat ki daldal hai gaarhi re gaarhi re
The quicksand of night is thick and viscous;
dharkan ki chale kaise gaari re gaari re
how can the vehicle of my heartbeats proceed?
dil ke aangan mein hai phaile saaye kaise khauf ke
In the heart's courtyard stretch the shadows of fear.
ro rahe hain yuun andhere kaamp jaa'e jo sune
The darkness is sobbing so that anyone who hears it must shiver.
dil ke aangan mein hai phaile saaye kaise khauf ke
In the heart's courtyard stretch the shadows of fear.
ro rahe hain yuun andhere kaamp jaaye jo sune
The darkness is sobbing so that anyone who hears it must shiver.
dubi samay ki hai naari re naari re
The pulse, the pulse of time has drowned.
raat ki daldal hai gaarhi re gaarhi re
The quicksand of night is thick and viscous;
dharkan ki chale kaise gaari re gaari re
how can the vehicle of my heartbeats proceed?
