Luka Chuppi Luka Chuppi bahut huyi saamne aa ja naa
There has been a lot of hide and seek, please come out now

Kahan kahan dhoondha tujhe

Where am I supposed to look for you?

Thak gayi hai ab teri maa

Your mother is tired.

Aaja saanjh hui mujhe teri fikar

Come out son, im worried about you

Dhundhla gayi dekh meri nazar aa ja na (2)

Look I am lost, please come back

Kya bataoon maa kahan hoon main

What can I tell you about where I am

Yahan udney ko mere khula aasmaan hai

Here there is a whole empty sky for me to fly in

Tere kisson jaisa bhola salona

Innocent just like your (kisson?) [blogger's comment: Kisson - tales]

Jahan hain yahan sapno vala

There is a world here of dreams

Meri patang ho befikar udd rahi hai maa

Don't worry mother, my kite is flying here

Dor koi loote nahin beech se kaate na

No one loots my string and noone will cut it

Dhire dhire aangan utre andhera, mera deep kahan

Slowly slowly, it steps into darkness, where is my light?

Dhalke suraj kare ishara chanda tu hai kahan

When the sun goes down it signals to the moon, where are you?

Mere chanda tu hai kahan

Where are you my moon?

Lukka chuppi

Kaise tujhko dikhaun yahaan hai kya
How can I show what there is over here?

Maine jharne se paani maa tod ke piya hai
I have broken and drank water

Guchcha guchcha kai khwabon ka uchal ke chuwa hai
I have jumped and touched a cluster of dreams

Chaaya liya bhali dhoop yahaan hait

Here is sunshinehere that bears shade

Naya naya sa hai roop yahan

There is a new look over here

Yahaan sab kuch hai maa phir bhi

There is everything over here

Lage bin tere mujhko akela

but without you its still very lonely

Khoon Chala

Khoon Chala

Film: Rang De Basanti

Singers: Mohit Chauhan

Kuchh kar guzarne ko khoon chala khoon chala

Blood has stirred to do something

Aankhon ke sheeshe mein utarne ko khoon chala

Blood has stirred to walk down the glass of the eyes

Badan se tapak kar, zameen se lipat kar

Dripping from the body, enveloping the earth

Galiyon se raston se ubharkar, umad kar

Rising from the streets and the paths

Naye rang bhar ne ko khoon chala khoon chala

Blood has stirred to fill new colors

Khuli-si chhoT lekar, baRi-si tich lekar ahista ahista

With an open wound, with a large (complaint?), slowly, slowly

Sawaalon ki ungli, jawaabon ki mutthi

The figner of questions, a fist of answers

Sang lekar Khoon chala

With all of this the blood goes

Kuchh kar guzarne ko khoon chala khoon chala

Blood is going to try and do something

Khoon chala can have various meaning depending on variousinterpretations. In this case its most near Khoon=blood, offspring.Chala=has begun to walk or do something

Tu Bin Bataye

Tu Bin Bataye
Film: Rang De Basanti
Singers: Madhushree, Naresh Iyer

Tu Bin Bataayetu bin bataye mujhe le chal kaheen
Take me somewhere without telling me

Jahan tu muskuraye meri manzil wahin
Where you smile, thats where my destination is

Tu bin bataye mujhe le chal kaheen
take me somewhere without telling me

Jahan tu muskuraye meri manzil wahin
where you smile, that is my destination

Meethi lagi, chakh ke dekhi abhi
I've just tasted the sweet feeling of love

Mishri ki dali, zindagi ho chali
a lump of sugar, has become my life

Jahan hain teri baahein mera sahil wahin
my shore is where your arms are

Tu bin bataye mujhe le chal kaheen
take me somewhere without telling me

Jahan tu muskuraye meri manzil wahin
where you smile, that is my destination

Mann ki gali tu phuharoon si aa
come down the road of the heart like small raindrops

Bheeg jaye mere khwabon ka kafila
my dreams will be soaked

Jise tu gungunaye meri dhun hai wahin
The verse that you hum, that is my tune

Ik Onkar

Ik Onkar
Film: Rang De Basanti
Singer: Harshdeep Kaur

Till now I have been posting those song-translations, which are done and posted to the group by someone. This song is an exception. The link of this blog was posted in the group where the blogger peenned down the entire song with translation 'after some googling' (in his words). I'm including it here because I forgot the meaning of many words of the 'Gurbaani', which I learnt from my Sikh friend Hardeep.

ik-oNkaar sat naam kartaa purakh nirbha-o nirvair akaal moorat ajoonee saibhaN gur parsaad.

One Universal Creator God. The Name Is Truth. Creative Being Personified. No Fear. No Hatred. Image Of The Undying, Beyond Birth, Self-Existent. By Guru's Grace.

By thinking, He cannot be reduced to thought, even by thinking hundreds of thousands of times.

chupai chup na hova-ee jay laa-ay rahaa liv taar.
By remaining silent, inner silence is not obtained, even by remaining lovingly absorbed deep within.

bhukhi-aa bhukh na utree jay bannaa puree-aa bhaar.
The hunger of the hungry is not appeased, even by piling up loads of worldly goods.

sahas si-aanpaa lakh hohi ta ik na chalai naal.
Hundreds of thousands of clever tricks, but not even one of them will go along with you in the end.

So how can you become truthful? And how can the veil of illusion be torn away?

hukam rajaa-ee chalnaa naanak likhi-aa naal.
O Nanak, it is written that you shall obey the Hukam of His Command, and walk in the Way of His Will.
