Philosophical/Didactic Song of Rafi in a lighter vein: Jawaan ho yaa bu.Dhiyaaa....
Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Hindi-Urdu lyrics:
jawaan ho yaa bu.Dhiyaaa,
WHETHER YOUNG OR OLD,
yaa nanneeh see gu.Diyaa,
OR BE IT A LITTLE DOLL,
kuchh bhee ho aurat zahar kee hai pu.Diyaa
WHATEVER, THE WOMAN’S A PACKET OF POISON!
jawaan ho yaa bu.Dhiyaaa,
WHETHER YOUNG OR OLD,
yaa nanneeh see gu.Diyaa,
OR BE IT A LITTLE DOLL,
kuchh bhee ho aurat zahar kee hai pu.Diyaa...
WHATEVER, THE WOMAN’S A PACKET OF POISON!
maare pistaul se naa kaaTe talwaar se,
KILLING NEITHER WITH A PISTOL NOR CARVING UP WITH A SWORD,
mard ko ghulaam yeh banaaye ba.De pyaar se,
SHE MAKES A SLAVE OF THE MAN WITH GROOVY CARESSES,
arre maare pistaul se naa kaaTe talwaar se,
KILLING NEITHER WITH A PISTOL NOR CARVING UP WITH A SWORD,
mard ko ghulaam yeh banaaye ba.De pyaar se,
SHE MAKES A SLAVE OF THE MAN WITH GROOVY CARESSES,
kabhee iqraar se,
BY AGREEING SOMETIMES,
kabhee inkaar se,
BY REFUSING SOMETIMES,
kabhee iqraar se
BY AGREEING SOMETIMES,
kabhee inkaar se,
BY REFUSING SOMETIMES,
kajre kee dhaar se
WITH THE KOHL’S SHARPNESS,
yaa baalo.n ke singaar se,
OR WITH THE COIFFURE,
isee liye kehtaa hoo.n Daro Daro naar se,
THAT’S THE REASON I SAY, “FEAR THE WOMAN”!
Daaro Daro naar se
FEAR THE WOMAN!
jawaan ho yaa bu.Dhiyaaa,
WHETHER YOUNG OR OLD,
yaa nanneeh see gu.Diyaa,
OR BE IT A LITTLE DOLL,
kuchh bhee ho aurat zahar kee hai pu.Diyaa...
WHATEVER, THE WOMAN’S A PACKET OF POISON!

THIS IS SURELY A SATAN’S PRESCRIPTION,
