Jodhaa Akbar

[smita]

In lamho ke daaman mein (In the intimacy of these moments)

In lamho ke daaman mein, paakeza se rishtey hain
(In the intimacy of these moments, there are some pure relationships)

Koi kalma mohabbat ka, dohratay farishtay hain
(The angels are reiterating the spiritual song of love)

Khamosh si hain zameen, hairaan sa falak hain
(There is a silence in the land, the sky is amazed)

Ek noor hi noor sa ab aasaman talak hain
(There is a radiance right upto the skies)

Nagme hi nagme hain jaagti soti fizaon mein
(There is melody in the active and asleep surroundings)
Husn hain saari adaaon mein
(There is beauty in all your grace)
Ishq hain jaisi hawaon mein
(There is love in the air)

Kaisa yeh Ishq hain, kaisa yeh khwab hain
(What kind of love is this? What kind of dream is this?)

Kaise jazbaat ka umda sailaab hai
(What kind of a flood of emotions have gushed in?)

Din badley, raatein badli, baatein badli, jeene ke andaaz hi badle hain
(The days have changed, nights have changed, conversations changed, the mode of life has changed)

In lamho ke daman mein, pakeeza se rishtay hain
(In the intimacy of these moments, there are some pure relationships)

Koi kalma mohabbat ka, dohratay farishtay hain
(The angels are reiterating the spiritual songof love)

Jodha’s lines:

Hmmm, samay ne yeh kya kiya, ho…badal di hain kaya
(What has time done to us, it has changed my flesh/skin)

Tumhe maine pa liya, mujhe tumne paaya
(I have found you, you have found me)

Miley dekho aise hain hum, ke do sur ho jaise madham, koi zyaada na koi kum kisi raag mein
(We have met like as if two harmonies meet of a rythmn, neither high nor low)
Ke prem aag mein, jalte dono ki hai tan bhi hain man bhi, man bhi hain tan bhi
(As if in the flames of passion, both burn our body and soul, soul and body)

Akbar’s lines:
Mere khwabon ke is gulistaan mein, tumse hi to bahar chayee hain
(In the garden of my dreams/reverie, you have brought the beautiful springtime)

Phoolon mein rang mere they lekin, in mein khushboo tumhi se aayi hain
(The flowers have my colours, but the fragrance is from you)

Kyu hain yeh aarzoo, kyu hai yeh justju
(Why do these desires exist, why does this search lives on?)

Kyu dil bechain hain, kyu dil betaab hain
(Why is the heart so impatient, why is it so impulsive?)

Din badley, raatein badli, baatein badli, jeene ke andaaz hi badle hain
((The days have changed, nights have changed, conversations changed, the mode of life has changed)

In lamho ke daaman mein, paakeza se rishtey hain
(In the intimacy/companionship of these moments, there are some pure relationships)

Koi kalma mohabbat ka, dohratay farishtay hain…..
(The angels are reiterating the spiritual songof love)

p.s. Kalma means Beginning of a verse in Quran, implying a spiritual/holy song

[Lo]

JUST GREAT!
Thanks, smita!

[smita]

Thanks Lo, This is my most favorite song, it consummates their love.

The reason why Im giving these lyrics is because of the deep meaning not many people are able to comprehend or understand the songs. As a result all say that they wont buy the album becos they didnot like it.

I hope these meaning of songs will compel u to buy the CDs, only if you listen and understand them, Its the most beautiful creations ever. Dont missout on this music guys. Its like once in a lifetime music.

I will slowly translate each and every song for you guys.

In sapno se jalthal hain mera man aangan
(In the flood of these dreams, lie my heart's territory)

[ancalgary]

just a correction:
Farishtay doesnt mean the heavens .... the translation should be that the 'Angels are reiterating the spiritual song of love ...'

otherwise good job smita ....

[Raja Khumersingh]

Amazing Amazing Album and Translation...

[sachinpilake]

BEST JOB SMITA


THANKS FOR HELPING US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Señorita-N]

thanks a lot Smita! you are wonderful. amazing job
its indeed such a beautiful song, the lyrics are so meaningful and deep...very very romantic and passionate

[weroon]

Thanks alot Smita.

I think it would be great to open new topics on each song, give its translation and than we can discuss in there about the song.
That would be great rather than talk around each other.

Just a thought

[weroon]

Do you think Jodhaa is dancing in the bhajan?
i know that kinda a strange question
but Maybe a few bharat natyam, wont do harm and would be great!
dont you think?

Very spiritual song with a lot of arabic/urdu words, had to open a dictionary for it

[ancalgary]

great job again smita! ... but just another correction:

Ali Ka dulara ...does not mean "Allah's favorite or beloved"..
It means Ali's favorite or beloved..which is in reference to 'Hazrat Ali Hussain' ...who was the grandson of Muhammad.
As we all know how muslims are observing the month of 'Moharram' these days all over the world..which is also in regards to Hazrat Ali.

So..the song could not be any more timely!

Excellent job Smita!

[smita]

No ancalgary, not at all.

Hazrat ali hussain maybe grandson of muhammed. But this song sings glory of Khwaja moinuddin chisti, so the singer says that the khwaja is Allah's dulaara(beloved). He is not talking about another prophet hazrat ali.

Ali is a variant of Allah.Original name meaning.

Well you can take it either way; cos if u heard ya ali song, the singer refers to Allah not any hazrat ali.

[ancalgary]

Smita, if you ask any muslim about this..they will tell you that your reasoning is not correct. Allah has ninety nine names in Islam, and Ali is not one of them! Whenever you hear any of the songs like 'ya ali' etc... these are in regards to hazrat ali. Because, he is greatly regarded in the religion ...especially in the the shiite sect of muslims ... Ali is of pristine value! ..hence all those qawalis and devotional songs in the name of Ali.

This song is in regards to the great Khwaja moin udin chisti...and if you read up on him, he was a great admirer of Ali, hence the writer is calling 'Ali ka dulara' ... or Ali's beloved.

Anyway, this is coming from history books, and many muslims from themselves. At the end, I guess its your personal translation and interpretation, and I guess we should take it with a grain of salt.
No worries ...
