Filmy Devotional Song of Rafi: Ab toh bataa de avgun mere….



Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Hindi Lyrics (For the first time on the internet):


banaa sakte ho jab duniya,
AS YOU CAN CREATE THE WORLD,


hai kyaa mushkil, banaa denaa,
WHAT’S THE DIFFICULTY IN RECTIFYING?


meree ek baat chhoTee see, mere bhaggwan, banaa denaa….
MEND A SMALL MATTER OF MINE, O GOD!


ab toh bataade avgun mere,
NOW SHOW ME MY FAULTS,


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam,
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


ab toh bataade avgun mere,
NOW SHOW ME MY FAULTS,


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam,
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


laakh jatan karke bhee jag ke,
DESPITE A MILLION ATTEMPTS, TO THE WORLD


aa naa sakaa mai.n kaam,
I COULDN’T BE OF ANY USE!


ab toh bataade, avgun mere,
NOW SHOW ME MY FAULTS,


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam…
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


ho gayaa soonaa, ghar kaa aa.ngan,
DESERTED IS THE HOME’S COURTYARD,


ta.Dap rahaa hai bholaa bachpan,
THE INNOCENT CHILDHOOD IS WRITHING,


maina apnaa, dharm nibhaayaa,
I CARRIED OUT MY DUTY TO THE END,


phir bhee yeh parinaam,
EVEN THEN, SUCH CONSEQUENCE!


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam,
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


ab toh bataade avgun mere,
NOW SHOW ME MY FAULTS,


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam…
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


mann toh dayaa se, teraa bharaa hai,
AS FOR YOUR HEART, ‘TIS FULL OF MERCY,


patthar kaa toh roop dharaa hai,
THE STONE IS JUST A FORM YOU’VE ASSUMED!


tujh se dayaaloo hai gar koee,
IF SOMEONE ELSE IS MORE MERCIFUL THAN YOU,


tuu hee bataa voh naam,
REVEAL THAT NAME YOURSELF!


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam,
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


ab toh bataade avgun mere,
NOW SHOW ME MY FAULTS,


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam,
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


ab toh bataade avgun mere,
NOW SHOW ME MY FAULTS,


paa.nv pa.Daa hoo.n shaam,
O SHAAM, AT THE FEET I LAY ME DOWN!


ab toh bataa de shaam~~
SHOW ME NOW O SHAAM!


ab toh bataa de shaam~~~
SHOW ME NOW O SHAAM!


ab toh bataa de shaam~~~~.
SHOW ME NOW O SHAAM!
