English Translation of 'Jis Gali Mein Tera Ghar Na Ho'

Here's the translation of a sweet song by Mukesh.

Song: Jis Gali Mein Tera Ghar Na Ho Baalma
Singer: Mukesh
Movie: Kati Patang
Actors: Rajesh Khanna, Asha Parekh



Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma
Us gali se hame to guzarna nahin
Jo dagar tere dwaare pe jaati na ho
Us dagar pe hame paaon rakhna nahin
Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma...
Any street on which your house does not stand, my beloved
Is not a street that I want to pass through.
Any path that doesn't lead to your door,
Is not a path that I will set foot on.
Any street that your house is not on...

Zindagi mein kaii rangraliyan sahi
Har taraf muskurati ye kaliyan sahi
Khoobsurat bahaaron ki galiyan sahi
Jis chaman mein tere pag mein kaante chubhe...
Jis chaman mein tere pag mein kaante chubhe
Us chaman se hame phool chunana nahin
Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma...
In life, I have had many colorful celebrations
Everywhere I look, I see smiling flower buds
And many beautiful views of springtime.
But that garden in which a thorn pricks your feet...
Any garden in which a thorn pricks your feet,
Is not a garden that I will pick any flower from.
That street that your house is not on...

Haan ye rasame, ye kasame sabhi tod ke
Tu chali aa chunar pyar ki odh ke
Ya chala jaaonga, main ye jag chhod ke
Jis jagah yaad teri sataane lage...
Jis jagah yaad teri sataane lage,
Us jagah ye ek pal bhi thhaharana nahin
Yes, these traditions, these promises... break them all
And run to me, flying the shawl of love in the air
Or else I will leave this world behind
And that place where your memories torment me...
That place where your memories torment me,
I will not linger there for one second.

Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma
Us gali se hame to guzarna nahin
Jo dagar tere dwaare pe jaati na ho
Us dagar pe hame paaon rakhna nahin
Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma...
Any street on which your house does not stand, my beloved
Is not a street that I want to pass through.
Any path that doesn't lead to your door,
Is not a path that I will set foot on.
Any street that your house is not on...

English Translation of 'Zindagi Ek Safar Hai Suhana'

A popular song by Kishore Kumar (The versions by Asha Bhosle and Mohd. Rafi are included here also) speaking of the transience of life and the importance of living every moment to its fullest.

Song: Zindagi Ek Safar Hai Suhana
Movie: Andaz
Singer: Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhosle
Actors: Rajesh Khanna

Kishore Kumar:



Zindagi ek safar hai suhana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana
Life is a beautiful journey
Who knows what will happen tomorrow?

Chand taaron se chalna hai aage
Aasmaanon se badna hai aage
Peeche reh jaayega yeh zamana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana
Zindagi ek safar hai suhana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana...
We must move ahead of the stars and the moon
We will leave the world behind
No one knows what's in store for the future
Who knows what will happen tomorrow?

Hanste gaate jahan se guzar
Duniya ki tu parva na kar
Muskuraate huwe din bitana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana
Haan, zindagi ek safar hai suhana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana...
Just smile and enjoy life.
Don't worry about the world's opinion.
Always spend your days laughing
Because no one knows what will happen tomorrow
Yes, life surely is a beautiful journey
Who knows what will happen tomorrow?

Maut aane hai aayegi ek din
Jaan jaani hai jaayegi ek din
Aisi baaton se kya ghabraana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana
Zindagi ek safar hai suhana
Yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana...
Death must come to us all one day.
Each of our lives will have to end some day.
Why should we fear this fact?
No one can predict what is in store for tomorrow.
This life is a beautiful journey.
Who knows what will happen tomorrow?

Asha Bhosle:
