ba.Dee der bhayee
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
ba.Dee der bhayee,
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
ba.Dee der bhayee

kab loge Khabar morre raam,
WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
kab loge Khabar morre raam,
WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
chalte-chalte mere pag haare,
BEING ON THE MOVE, MY FEET HAVE DESPAIRED!
aayee jeevan kee shaam,
THE EVENING OF LIFE APPROACHES,
kab loge Khabar morre raam,
WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
ba.Dee der bhayee
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
ba.Dee der bhayee….
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
kehte hai.n tum ho dayaa ke saagar,
IT IS SAID, YOU’RE AN OCEAN OF MERCY!
kehte hai.n tum ho dayaa ke saagar,
IT IS SAID, YOU’RE AN OCEAN OF MERCY!
phir kyoo.n Khaalee meree gaagar,
THEN WHY’S MY PITCHER EMPTY?
jhoome.n jhuke kabhee naa barse,
DESPITE BEING OVERCAST, IT NEVER RAINED,
kaise ho tum ghan-shyaam,
IS THIS THE WAY YOU ARE O GHANSYAM?
kaise ho tum ghan-shyaam,
IS THIS THE WAY YOU ARE O GHANSYAM?
hey raam,
O RAM!
hey raam,

WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
ba.Dee der bhayee
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
ba.Dee der bhayee….
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
sun ke jo behre bann jaaoge,
IF YOU TURN A DEAF EAR TO ME,
sun ke jo behre bann jaaoge,
IF YOU TURN A DEAF EAR TO ME,
aap hee chhaliyaa kehlaaoge,
YOU MAKE YOURSELF LIABLE TO CALLED ARTFUL!
meree baat banne naa banne,
WHETHER I’M PROVEN A SUCCESS OR NOT,
ho jaaoge tum badnaam,
YOU’LL BE SCANDALIZED!
ho jaaoge tum badnaam,
YOU’LL BE SCANDALIZED!
hey raam,
O RAM!
hey raam,
O RAM!

WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
kab loge Khabar morre raam,
WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
chalte-chalte mere pag haare,
BEING ON THE MOVE, MY FEET HAVE DESPAIRED!
aayee jeevan kee shaam,
THE EVENING OF LIFE APPROACHES,
kab loge Khabar morre raam,
WHEN WILL YOU TAKE NOTICE, MY RAM!
ba.Dee der bhayee
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
ba.Dee der bhayee.
IT’S BEEN VERY LATE!
