Tayyab Ali Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Amar Akbar Anthony
tayyab alii pyaar kaa dushaman haay! haay!
Tayyab Ali, the enemy of love, haay! haay! (haay! haay! = bewaling something)
merii jaan kaa dushaman haay! haay!
The enemy of my life, haay haay!
la.Dakaa aur la.Dakii: raazii!
Both boy and girl: They agree!
phir bhii na maane: qaazii!
Still a refusal by the: Priest!
ye zidd na chho.De, mere dil ko to.De
His stubbornness breaks my heart
ye banane na de merii salamaa ko merii dulhan
He will not let Salmaa be my bride
tayyab alii pyaar kaa dushaman haay! haay!
Tayyab Alii, the enemy of love, Haay Haay!
laka.Dii beche aur na samajhe, la.Dakii ke aramaano.n ko
He sells firewood, and does not understand a girl�s wishes
moTaa seTh taraazuu me.n tole
The fat sir weighs on a scale�
haa.N taraazuu me.n tole
Yes, on a scale he weighs�
chhoTe insaano.n ko
Simple human beings.
ho jaaye buDDhaa ko: haa.N jii
Let this old man, oh yes sir…
allaah ko pyaaraa, haa.N jii
return to Allah (meaning:let him die), yes sir!
mai.n kar luu.N shaadii
Then I shall get married
khaanaa aabaadii
and start a flourishing household
sulajh jaaye pal me.n merii baraso.n kii ulajhan
In one moment, my years� long complication will be solved
tayyab alii�
dayaa re dayaa, isaki chaal ko dekho
Oh pity on him, look at his style of walking
kaale ra.ng lagaayaa, isake baal ko dekho
Having applied black dye, look at his hair
are juuthe muuthe isake daa.Nt ko dekho
Look at his fake teeth
saaTh baras kii umar me.n aise cheharaa kisii kaa khilataa hai
At 60 years of age, he still gets delighted by someone’s face
hamako hai maaluum kisii se, kisii se
And I know with whom, with whom�
chhupakar ye bhii milataa hai
He secretly meets as well
mai.n naam bataa_uu.N?
Should I tell her name?
na jii, na jii, na jii
Please, no! Please, no!
tasaviir dikhaa_uu.N?
Should I show her picture?
na jii, na jii, na jii
Please, no! Please, no!
Dar gayaa ye kaise, baazaar me.n aise
Oh how he gets scared, being in the market place
shariifo.n ko ham rusavaa nahii.n karate miyaa.N jumman
but I don’t disgrace decent people, mr. Jumman
