Thehre Rahen Translation of Song from Sikandar Ka Muqaddar

 

Thehre Rahen – Poetic Translation and Explanation of Lyrics

Meta Description:  Thehre Rahen is a song from the Netflix movie Sikandar Ka Muqaddar. Understand the contextual and philosophical meaning through this poetic translation.

The Background of Thehre Rahen

A man and a woman, both accused of a diamond theft, find themselves brought together by a web of orchestrated circumstances. This song plays in the background during this pivotal moment, subtly hinting at the presence of an unseen puppeteer pulling the strings behind the scenes. On a deeper level, the song reflects a philosophical truth: that we, as individuals, are often driven by forces beyond our control, pushing us into actions we may not fully understand.

 

The lyrics of the song feature long, flowing lines, with subtle internal and end rhymes. The poetic translation focuses on preserving the original rhythm, allowing the English words to align with the melody in a way that can be easily sung to the original soundtrack, much like a karaoke version.

 

The English Transcreation of the Lyrics of Thehre Rahen

 

I was not moving but it seemed to me that the ground beneath me was showing the way

The lane I did not want to take but it seemed that I was going that way

Please do not forsake me without any prop but do call out and ask me to stop

My aimlessness has taken me out where I dared to venture without knowing the way

My aimlessness has taken me out where I dared to venture without knowing the way

I was not moving but it seemed to me that the ground beneath me was showing the way

 

I do not much care for anyone else I have now gotten used to you

Someone is moving me around like a pawn there is some mischief in view

I see strangers peering out from mirrors I had never changed to this extent before

I am roaming around like a zombie and I just do not feel alive any more

Is this person me or is someone else

I cannot make out anything today

My aimlessness has taken me out where I dared to venture without knowing the way

I was not moving but it seemed to me that the ground beneath me was showing the way

 

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Thehre Rahen from Sikandar Ka Muqaddar

 

thehre rahen wahin hum magar pairon taley chal padi yeh zameen

jana nahi tha jis gali lagta hai hum ja rahe wahin

humare bharose na chhodo humein ke awaaz deke roko humein

awargi le chali hai wahan pe jahan hosh mein koi jaata nahi..

awargi le chali hai wahan pe jahan hosh mein koi jaata nahi..

thehre rahen wahin hum magar pairon taley chal padi yeh zameen

 

nigahon ko jachta nahi hai koi tumhari yun aadat hui

koi khel humse to khela gaya koi to shararat hui

aaine sabhi hue ajnabi hum itna to badle nahi the kabhi

bekhayali-an hain ghere hue hum aise to pehle nahin the kabhi

yeh hum hai ya fir koi aur hi hai

yeh bhi samajh ab to aata nahi

awargi le chali hai wahan pe jahan hosh mein koi jaata nahi..

thehre rahen wahin hum magar pairon taley chal padi yeh zameen 

 

awargi = vagrancy (literal)

shararat = mischief

bekhayali-an = the states of being without any thoughts

The Literal English Translation of the Lyrics of Thehre Rahen

 

thehre rahen wahin hum magar pairon taley chal padi yeh zameen

I was stationary at that place but the ground beneath my feet began to move

jana nahi tha jis gali lagta hai hum ja rahe wahin

I did not want to enter that lane but I seemed to be going there

 

humare bharose na chhodo humein ke awaaz deke roko humein

Do not leave me having faith in my abilities but call out and stop me

awargi le chali hai wahan pe jahan hosh mein koi jaata nahi..

Aimlessness has taken me there where no one in their senses goes

 

nigahon ko jachta nahi hai koi tumhari yun aadat hui

I find no one else suitable I have become habituated to you

 

koi khel humse to khela gaya koi to shararat hui

Some game has been played against me some mischief has been done

aaine sabhi hue ajnabi hum itna to badle nahi the kabhi

Allthe mirrors have become strangers though I have never changed so much

 

bekhayali-an hain ghere hue hum aise to pehle nahin the kabhi

I am surrounded with no thoughts I was never like this before

 

yeh hum hai ya fir koi aur hi hai

Am I this person or is it someone else

yeh bhi samajh ab to aata nahi

I cannot even figure out this now

The Karaoke English Translation of the Lyrics of Abhi Na Jaao Chhod Kar

Rafi:

Please do not leave me just yet

My desire is not satisfied

Please do not leave me just yet

My desire is not satisfied

 

You have just about arrived

You have just about

You have just about arrived

Freshness of spring amplified

Oh! Let your fragrance permeate

Allow my eyes your beauty sate

Let the evening move on a bit

Let the evening move on a bit

My heartbeat to settle permit

Let me be alive for a while

Revel in your heady smile

Revel in your heady smile

There is much that I must confide

And much to hear from you besides

Please do not leave me just yet

My desire is not satisfied

 

Asha:

The stars are twinkling in the night

The stars are twinkling in the night

You can see the city lights

Now do not ask me to stay

Now do not ask me to stay

And please do not block my way

If I don’t leave now my friend

Then I’ll be staying till the end

You will continue to chide

My desire is not satisfied

This isn’t the kind of affair

To which a full stop be applied

 

Rafi:

Oh please do stay, oh please do stay

Asha:

No way no way no way no way

Rafi:

Please do not leave me just yet

My desire is not satisfied

 

Rafi:

Half sated

Leaving my desire half sated

And the fire burning unabated

If you leave me at will

Will you promises fulfil

In life’s many situations

In lover’s ardent passions

There will be many occasions

That will test our allegiance

I am saying this out of love

There is no intent to deride

 

Asha:

You will never stop repeating

That desire is not satisfied

Rafi:

Yes desire is not satisfied

Asha:

No way no way no way no way

  

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Abhi Na Jaao Chhod Kar from Hum Dono

 

Rafi:

abhi na jaao chhod kar
ke dil abhi bhara nahi

abhi na jaao chhod kar
ke dil abhi bhara nahi

 

abhi abhi to aayi ho
abhi abhi to
abhi abhi to aayi ho
bahaar ban ke chaayi ho
hawa zara mahek to le
nazar zara bahek to le
yeh shaam dhal to le zara
yeh shaam dhal to le zara
yeh dil sambhal to le zara
main thodi der jee to loon
nashe ke ghoont pi to loon
nashe ke ghoont pi to loon
abhi to kuch kaha nahi
abhi to kuch suna nahi
abhi na jaao chhod kar
ke dil abhi bhara nahi

Asha:

sitaare jhilmila uthe

sitaare jhilmila uthe
chirag jagmaga uthe
bas ab na mujhko tokna

bas ab na mujhko tokna
na badhke raah rokna
agar main ruk gayi abhi
to jaa na paungi kabhi
yahi kahoge tum sada
ke dil abhi nahi bhara
jo khatam ho kisi jagah
yeh aisa silsila nahi

Rafi:

abhi nahi abhi nahi
Asha:

nahi nahi nahi nahi

Rafi:

abhi na jaao chhod kar
ke dil abhi bhara nahi

 

Rafi:

adhoori aas
adhoori aas chhod ke
adhuri pyaas chhod ke
jo roz yuhi jaaogi
to kis tarah nibhaaogi
ki zindagi ki raah mein
jawaan dilon ki chaah mein
kai makaam aayenge
jo humko aazmayenge
bura na maano baat ka
yeh pyar hai gila nahi

Asha:

haan yehi kahoge tum sada
ke dil abhi bhara nahi
Rafi
haan dil abhi bhara nahi

Asha
nahi nahi nahi nahi

Translation of Patriotic Song Azadi from Netflix Heeramandi

 

Azadi – Poetic Translation of Web Series Heeramandi Song

Meta Description: Azadi is a patriotic group song from Netflix web series Heeramandi produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Enjoy the poetic translation set to the original track. 

Setting the Background to Azadi

The song Azadi appears twice in the web series Heeramandi, each time with a distinct emotional and thematic resonance. The first rendition is heard during the funeral of Lajjo, where "azadi" (freedom) subtly symbolizes liberation from the burdens and suffering of this world. In contrast, the second rendition bursts forth with patriotic fervour as the courtesans of Heeramandi lead a procession, channelling their defiance against the injustices and cruelty of British rule. Set during the final decades of British colonialism in India, Heeramandi uses Azadi not just as a cry for personal freedom but as a powerful, collective anthem of resistance against colonial oppression.

The Poetic English Translation of the Lyrics of Azadi

 

We want to see liberation

At any cost we want to see

We want to see liberation

 

We want to see liberation

At any cost we want to see

We want to see liberation

At any cost we want to see

We want to see liberation

 

There will be an end to this oppression

We’ll unfurl the flag of compassion

There will be an end to this oppression

We’ll unfurl the flag of compassion

In every city and every village

We want a harmonious population

This dawn we desire liberation

We want to see liberation

At any cost we want to see

We want to see liberation

 

All the crowns will lie powerless

Our destiny we will possess

All the crowns will lie powerless

Our destiny we will possess

Mother India with her restored pride

We want to see her coronation

This dawn we desire liberation

We want to see liberation

At any cost we want to see

We want to see liberation

 

 

The Original Hindi Lyrics of Azadi from Heeramandi

 

Humein dekhni hai azadi
Har haal mein humein dekhni hai
Humein dekhni hai azadi

 

Humein dekhni hai azadi
Har haal mein humein dekhni hai
Humein dekhni hai azadi
Har haal mein humein dekhni hai
Humein dekhni hai azadi

 

Mit jayega naam is zulmat ka
Lehrayega parcham mohabbat ka
Mit jayega naam is zulmat ka
Lehrayega parcham mohabbat ka

Shehron shehron gaon gaon mein
Humein ishq abadi dekhni hai
Humein subah azadi dekhni hai

Humein dekhni hai azadi
Har haal mein humein dekhni hai
Humein dekhni hai azadi

Sab taj pade besudh honge
Hum apne haakim khud honge
Sab taj pade besudh honge
Hum apne haakim khud honge

Bharat maa ki asmat ko humein
Bante shehzadi dekhni hai
Humein subah azadi dekhni hai

Humein dekhni hai azadi
Har haal mein humein dekhni hai
Humein dekhni hai azadi
