Tere Vaaste – English Translation of Filmfare Award Winning Song


Meta Description:  Tere Vaaste is the title song from the Hindi movie Zara Hatke Zara Bachke. It won the 2024 Filmfare Awards for the Best Lyrics. Superimpose my English lyrics on the music of Tere Vaaste and you will get a better fit than any other translation on the Internet.

The Poetic English Translation of the Lyrics of Tere Vaaste

 

The moon from the sky my love I’ll pluck for you 

If you want some stars I will bring along a few

 


But these moon and stars will have to wait awhile

I’ll go fetch them when our love making is through

 

 I’ll go fetch them when our love making is through

The moon from the sky my love I’ll pluck for you 

If you want some stars I will bring along a few


You are in love with me

My exalted friend


Take this advice for free

My exalted friend


I’m not like others, see

My exalted friend


So, be a bit wary

My exalted friend

 

Darling, please listen to me

We have more than ‘nough money

On earth we can build our paradise


I see the moon in your face

Your eyes are stars in their grace

Why waste time travelling to the skies


But if you will insist on the moon and the stars

Do not worry I will make your dreams come true

 

Do not worry I will make your dreams come true

The moon from the sky my love I’ll pluck for you 

If you want some stars I will bring along a few

 

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Tere Vaaste from Zara Hatke Zara Bachke

 

Tere vaaste falak se main chaand laaunga
Solah satrah sitaare sang baandh laaunga


Chaand taaron se kaho
Abhi thehrein zara

Pehle ishq lada lun uske baad laaunga

Pehle ishq lada lun uske baad laaunga

Tere vaaste falak se main chaand laaunga
Solah satrah sitaare sang baandh laaunga


Hum se mohabbat hai
Janaab-e-ali
Toh ik hidaayat hai
Janaab-e-ali
Hum hain zara hat ke
Janaab-e-ali
Rehna zara bach ke
Janaab-e-ali

Dekha jaye toh vaise
Apne toh saare paise
Rehke zameen pe hi vasool hain

Chehra hai tera chanda
Naina tere sitaare
Ambar tak jaana hi fizool hai


Iske baad bhi agar tujhe chain na mile
Poori karke main teri ye muraad aaunga

Poori karke main teri ye muraad aaunga
Tere vaaste falak se main chaand laaunga
Solah satra sitaare sang baandh laaunga

 

Meanings of some key words

 

Falak = sky

janaab-e-ali = salutation to a respected person

hidaayat = advice

Filmfare Awards for Best Lyrics  

 

For me the most important element of a Bollywood song is the lyrics and this comes from my love of poetry. Somewhere at the back of my mind is a project of translating iconic Hindi poems into English. And the only Hindi film awards that I respect are the Filmfare Awards. The rest are commercial tamashas. I will translate Filmfare Best Lyrics award winners from time to time at Bollywood Translations. If you have any suggestions please enter your choice in the Comments.

 

Tere vaaste, written by Amitabh Bhattacharya, won the Best Lyrics Award at Filmfare 2004. The reels and shorts of Tere vaaste have been trending for over six months. His Khairiyat has been translated by me in this Hindi movie blog.
