WITH AN ITEM OF DEATH I’VE SET FORTH,

dil meN chhupaa ke pyaar kaa tuufaan le chale.
CONCEALING THE LOVE STORM IN HEART I’VE SET FORTH!

The real-estate sharks still abound in Mumbai.  The Mills which used to provide livelihood to thousands before were closed down and the sprawling areas of the Mills and their compound were developed to build huge skyrise buildings and other real-estate properties.   The cottages and bungalows too have almost vanished.   No real-estate developers is interested in the general good of the citizens.  There is no more place in and around Mumbai for gardens or parks.  As is usual everywhere, greed for landed property  is rampant.  The flats in the buildings that were constructed for the poor are in fact booked by ministers and even some rich film stars and were in fact exposed in a sting operation by a TV channel.   So many avenues are available for getting rich quickly that resorting to honest labour seems to be the choice of fools.  The Rich and the Poor Divide is becoming wider.  How true to life are the lines of this song:  That the rich covet even a cot and a few broken vessels of the poor!   Greed and acquisition are ingrained in the blood of  some of  those who think they are millionaires  but who are beggars at heart!   

How I miss the old city where everyone had their place in the sun, when materialism was not so rampant.  Survival did not mean becoming  rich overnight.  The Rupee had good value and could ensure unadulterated food.

Rafi Reviving Dying Love: Muhabbat Zinda Rehti Hai...

Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original lyrics:



khol aa.nkhe.n, apne khawaab-e-naaz se,
OPEN UP YOUR EYES FROM YOUR GRACEFUL DREAM,

jaag mere, pyaar kee, aawaaz se
WAKE UP BY THE VOICE OF MY LOVE,

Zindagi, betaab hai, tere liye,
LIFE IS ANXIOUS FOR YOU,

aa gale, lag jaa usee, andaaz se
COME, EMBRACE ME IN THE SAME MANNER.


muhabbat zindaa rehtee hai,
LOVE LIVES ON,

muhabbat mar nahee.n saktee,
LOVE CAN’T DIE,

ajee insaan kyaa ye tau, Khuda se Dar nahee.n saktee,
WHAT TO SPEAK OF MAN, IT CAN’T BE AFRAID OF EVEN GOD,

muhabbat zindaa rehtee hai,
LOVE LIVES ON,

muhabbat mar nahee.n saktee.
LOVE CAN’T DIE.

ye keh doh, maut se jaakar ke ik, deewaanaa kehtaa hai,
GO AND TELL THIS TO DEATH THAT AN INSANE- LOVER SAYS...,

ye keh doh....,
TELL THIS...

ke ik deewaanaa kehtaa hai,
THAT AN INSANE-LOVER SAYS...,

koi deewaanaa kehtaa hai
SOME INSANE-LOVER SAYS:

meri ruh-e-, muhabbat mujh se pehle, mar nahee.n saktee,
THE ‘SOUL-OF- MY- LOVE’ CAN’T DIE BEFORE I DO

muhabbat zindaa rehtee hai,
LOVE LIVES ON,

muhabbat mar nahee.n saktee.
LOVE CAN’T DIE.


chalee aa, o meri jaan-e-tamannaa,
COME OVER O LIFE- OF- MY- DESIRE

dil ki mehfil me.n
TO THE ASSEMBLY OF THE HEART,

chalee aa,
COME OVER...

chalee aa......., chalee aa.....,
COME OVER, COME OVER,

chalee aa dil ki mehfil me.n,
COME OVER TO THE ASSEMBLY OF THE HEART

meri jaa.n dil ki mehfil me.n,
MY LOVE, TO THE ASSEMBLY OF THE HEART,

tu mujh se duur ho ulfat, ga.nwaaraa kar nahee.n saktee,
THAT YOU BE FAR AWAY FROM ME, THE LOVE CAN’T TOLERATE.

muhabbat zindaa rehtee hai,
LOVE LIVES ON,

muhabbat mar nahee.n saktee,
LOVE CAN’T DIE,

ajee insaan kyaa ye tau, Khuda se Dar nahee.n saktee,
WHAT TO SPEAK OF MAN, IT CAN’T BE AFRAID OF EVEN GOD,

Chalee Aa...., Chalee Aa...,
COME OVER...., COME OVER....,

Chalee Aa...., Chalee Aa...,
COME OVER...., COME OVER...,

Chalee Aa....

True love never dies for it is lust that fades away. Love bonds for a lifetime but lust just pushes away." -- Alicia Barnhart
