Lyrics of Iktara Bole Tun Tun, Kya Kahe Ye Tumse, Sun Sun - इकतारा बोले टून टून क्या कहे ये तुमसे, सुन सुन
iktaara bole tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
iktaara bolo tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
baat hai lambi matlab gol
khol na de ye sabke pol, to phir uske baad
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
iktaara bole tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
kuchh aise log bhi hote hain, kuchh aise log bhi hote hain
apni galti pe rote hain, apna to pet nahi bharta
par das das bachche hote hain, par das das bachche hote hain
har saal calender chaap diya
parivaar niyojan saaf kiya, to phir uske baad
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
iktaara bole tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
arre rocket koi chadhata hai, arre rocket koi chadhata hai
koi atom bomb banaata hai, aman ke naam pe dekho wo
duniya pe rob jamaata hai, duniya pe rob jamaata hai
baarood agar ye chal jaaye
saari duniya jal jaaye, to phir uske baad
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
iktaara bole tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
mandir se log ghabraate hain, mandir se log ghabraate hain
aur roz club me jaate hain, log bhakti bhajan sab bhool gaye
aur filmi gaane gaate hain, aur filmi gaane gaate hain
jab dharm nahi aur sharm nahi
koi bhi achchha karm nahi, to phir uske baad
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
iktaara bole tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
do kism ke neta hote hain, ik deta hai ik paata hai, ho ho
ik desh ko lut ke khata hai, ik desh pe jaan lutata hai, ho ho
ik zinda rah kar marta hai, ik mar kar jeewan paata hai
ik mara to naam-o-nishaan hi nahi, ik yaadgaar ban jaata hai
ik yaadgaar ban jaata hai
bhagwaan kare mere desh ke sab neta hi ban jaaye aise
thode se laal bahadur ho, thode se ho nehru jaise
thode se ho nehru jaise
raam na kare mere desh ko, raam na kare mere desh ko
kabhi bhi aisa neta mile jo aap bhi doobe desh bhi doobe
janta ko bhi le doobe, arre janta ko bhi le doobe
vote liya aur khisak gaya
jab kursi se chipak gaya, to phir uske baad, uske baad
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
iktaara bole tun tun kya kahe ye tumse, sun sun
iktaara bole tun tun tun tun tun tun
tun tun tun tun tun tun
tun tun tun tun tun tun
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Iktara Bole Tun Tun, Kya Kahe Ye Tumse, Sun Sun
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
A tale of breadth, a meaning round,
lest the truth be unbound, then later, after,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*.
Some souls exist, a mournful breed,
who weep for faults they plant as seed.
Their bellies yearn, yet children bloom,
a dozen fold, within the room,
a calendar each passing year,
for family planning, crystal clear, then later, after,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*.
They launch a craft into the blue,
or forge a bomb for me and you,
in peace's name, they claim their throne,
and rule the world, alone, alone.
If gunpowder should ever flare,
the whole world choked by smoke and prayer, then later, after,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*.
The temple sparks a fearful dread,
the club's embrace, instead, instead,
devotion lost, the hymns laid low,
as film songs rise and overflow,
when faith is gone, and shame's erased,
no virtue shines, no good embraced, then later, after,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*.
Two kinds of leaders grace the land,
one gives, one grabs with grasping hand, ho ho,
one loots the nation, takes his fill,
the other pours his life and will, ho ho.
One lives, yet dies, a hollow shell,
one, dead, finds life, a vibrant spell.
One vanishes, a fading trace,
one, remembered, time and space,
one, remembered, time and space.
May God bestow such leaders true,
on my land, in shades anew,
a touch of Shastri, hearts so bold,
a glimpse of Nehru, stories told,
a glimpse of Nehru, stories told.
Oh, may my land be spared this fate,
where leaders drown, and seal their state,
and drag the people down to hell,
and drag the people down to hell,
they take the vote, then disappear,
when bound to power, year by year, then later, after,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon*, what it whispers, listen,
The one-string sings, *Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
*Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*,
*Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon Toon*.

Comments for lyrics of song "Iktara Bole Tun Tun, Kya Kahe Ye Tumse, Sun Sun"
pionyt on Monday, July 30, 2012 This song tries to show the sad state of affairs as lack of of virtues in
normal citizens and politicians. That how when poor people don't even
enough to eat, some people find it right to produce 10 kids... How by
blindly copying western trends Indians have forgotten their own culture,
how the world is investing so much in creating destructive things like
nuclear bombs, while they should invest more in peace. How instead of
visiting temples people everyone only visits pubs and Clubs, etc. :)
pionyt on Thursday, September 27, 2012 Oh no. Ek tara doesn't mean "One star". as two words. It's "Iktara", one
word, which is the name of the small musical instrument he's holding (Round
bottom with wooden stick). It got its name because it has just one string
('taar'). Ek 'taar' --> Ektaara ... that is one having just one string. (as
opposed to like Guitar which has many strings).
aceji on Saturday, June 21, 2014 The word TARA is not star, in this song!!! Think of SITAR,GUITAR etc these
are string instruments. The word TAAR is for thin wire and this instrument
with ONE STRING is called EK TARA. Manoj Kumar is holding EK TARA and
singing about this instrument.
jassinmat on Saturday, May 08, 2010 Fantastic song, lots of good messages (I wish more current film makers did the same), excellent melody, lovely video and sung very well. Have not heard this song for more than 36 years. Many thanks for uploading. Goes to my youtube favourites.
aceji on Saturday, May 21, 2011 RAJ KAPOOR and MANOJ KUMAR films were full of messages. Here the IMPORTANT
line is regarding expanding nukes. BAROOD AGAR YE PHAT JAYE,SARI DUNIYA JAL
JAYE TO PHIR USKE BAAD.. Good song by M KAPOOR and
Kalyanji-Anandji.
