Lyrics of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Jina Yaha, Zara Hatke - ऐ दिल है मुश्किल जीना यहाँ, जरा हटके

aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha jara hat ke jara bach ke
ye hai bombay meri jaan
aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha jara hat ke jara bach ke
ye hai bombay meri jaan

kahi building kahi trame, kahi motor, kahi mill
milta hai yaha sab kuch ik milta nahi dil
kahi building kahi trame, kahi motor, kahi mill
milta hai yaha sab kuch ik milta nahi dil
insan ka nahi kahi nam-o-nishan
jara hat ke jara bach ke ye hai bombay meri jaan
aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha jara hat ke jara bach ke
ye hai bombay meri jaan

kahi satta, kahi patta, kahi chori kahi res
kahi daka, kahi phaka kahi thokar kahi thes
kahi satta, kahi patta, kahi chori kahi res
kahi daka, kahi phaka kahi thokar kahi thes
bekaro ke hain kayi kam yaha
jara hat ke jara bach ke ye hai bombay meri jaan
aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha jara hat ke jara bach ke
ye hai bombay meri jaan

beghar ko aawara yaha kehte hans hans
khud kate gale sabke kahe isko business
beghar ko aawara yaha kehte hans hans
khud kate gale sabke kahe isko business
ik chij ke hain kayi naam yaha
jara hat ke jara bach ke ye hai bombay meri jaan
aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha jara hat ke jara bach ke
ye hai bombay meri jaan

bura duniya jo hai kehta aisa bhola tu naa ban
jo hai karta wo hai bharta hai yaha ka ye chalan
bura duniya jo hai kehta aisa bhola tu naa ban
jo hai karta wo hai bharta hai yaha ka ye chalan
tadbir nahi chalne ki yaha
ye hai bombay ye hai bombay jaan

aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha
jara hat ke jara bach ke ye hai bombay meri jaan
aye dil hai aasa jina yaha suno miter, suno bandhu
ye hai bombay meri jaan aye dil hai mushkil jina yaha
jara hat ke jara bach ke ye hai bombay meri jaan


lyrics of song Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Jina Yaha, Zara Hatke

Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Jina Yaha, Zara Hatke
Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.
Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.

Skyscrapers and trams, engines and mills,
Here, you'll find everything but hearts that thrill.
Skyscrapers and trams, engines and mills,
Here, you'll find everything but hearts that thrill.
Humanity's lost, a fading trace,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.
Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.

Power plays, gambling's allure, theft and the chase,
Deceit's shadow, and stumbles, a cold embrace.
Power plays, gambling's allure, theft and the chase,
Deceit's shadow, and stumbles, a cold embrace.
Here, the jobless weave their despairing art,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.
Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.

The homeless are called vagrants, laughter rings,
They slit each other's throats, and call it the business things.
The homeless are called vagrants, laughter rings,
They slit each other's throats, and call it the business things.
A single truth, with a thousand names,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.
Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.

The world condemns you, don't be naive,
You reap what you sow, this is life's reprieve.
The world condemns you, don't be naive,
You reap what you sow, this is life's reprieve.
Bullying here will never succeed,
This is Bombay, This is Bombay, my dear.

Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.
Oh, heart, it's easy to breathe here,
Listen friend, listen brother,
This is my Bombay, my dear.
Oh, heart, it's hard to breathe here,
Step aside, and watch your way,
This is my Bombay, my dear.

i meant no offense by 'calm down'...that was just tongue-in-cheek, so no hard feelings :) most art/music/lit/etc can probably be traced back to some previous work of art/music/lit that inspired it, but i agree in general that bollywood certainly needs more originality...besides, the times that it has been fairly original have been received well -- think of flix like lagaan, munna bhai, etc. PS this explanation itself was partly inspired by the south park ep 'simpsons already did it'! ;)

1st, I didn't realize I was not calm and 2nd It's all inspired isn't it? So
easy to be inspired to change the language and keep the rhythm. What an
easy excuse. I recognize good bollywood music/movies, but when movies
ranging from 'Overboard' to 'Rat Race" and music ranging from 'Cotton Eyed
Joe' to Korean or Turkish marching songs are merely inspired, then it's a
lil too much. I mean even the name Bollywood is inspired from Hollywood

Bura Duniya Ko Hai Kehta, Aisa Bhola Tu Na Ban
Jo Hai Karta, Woh Hai Bharta, Hai Yahan Ka Yeh Chalan
Daadagiri Nahin Chalne Ki Yahan, Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Jeena Yahan, Zara Hat Ke, Zara Bach Ke
Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan
Ae Dil Hai Aasaan Jeena Yahan, Suno Mister, Suno Bandhu
Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan

great song . the mukhda is a straight lift from " my darling clementine"
the rest is ofcourse OP's . That means the rhythm of the song is also a
straight lift. The heart of the song is yet the mukhda. Iam a diehard fan
of OPN. But facts are facts and ought to be admitted. THANKS junkers1980

Yes I am. I also teach music. I have worked with many world class musicians
such as Girija Devi, Sitara Devi, Zakir Hussain and others.
