My son is called Rustom, and I find there was a movie in 1963 with some great Lata Mangeshkar songs in it. Could someone translate them for me?
The one I like most is called

Aye Diraruba

aye dilaruba aye dilaruba
aye dilaruba nazaren mila
kuch to mile gam ka sila
aye dilaruba ...

ashqon ka ik dariya baha
pyaasa tha dil pyaasa raha
nazaren milaa, nazaren mila
rahane na de koi gila
aye dilaruba ...

The lyrics are in Urdu (very similar to Hindi). I am not great at doing translations, but here goes...


aye dilaruba (Oh, sweetheart)
aye dilaruba nazaren mila (oh, sweetheart, look into my eyes)
kuch to mile gam ka sila (so I may get some respite(reward) for my sorrow)

ashqon ka ik dariya baha (a river of tears flowed)
pyaasa tha dil pyaasa raha (the thirsty heart remained thirsty)
nazaren milaa, nazaren mila (look into my eyes, look into my eyes)
rahane na de koi gila (let there not be any regrets)

Perfect sanjiv.

But it isnt khalis urdu. Also it isnt shuddh hindi too. Its a mixture of the two. Smile

Sorry.
How many people in this forum know a little bit of Sanskrit or Tamil or urdu, or Hindi, or Arabic as Asians?

Most of the Asians are proficient in European languages( except mypoor self) but none of those are well-versed in their own mother tongue.
Am I wrong?
Namaskar
Rama

It is a shame.. and that so few of us Brits know any Asian languages. Having lived 3 years in Delhi I found it incredibly difficult to get people to speak Hindi/Urdu to me, if they knew any English they insisted on speaking it. But I taught myself to read Hindi at least. Only to find that many of the words on shops or ads were English transliterated!

Delhi is not the whole india.

English is all pervasive in South india.

What is English after all?
A language to communicate with colonial hertitage.
