Maanjhi Chal Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Aya Sawan Jhoomke
maanjhi chal o maanjhi chal – 4
One should keep on moving
tu chale to chham-chham baaje maujon ki paayal
the sound of anklet in motion(person moving) are comparable to sound of waves in motiono
maanjhi chal, maanjhi chal, maanjhi chal, o o maanjhi chal
(teraa jeevan nadeeyaa kee dhaar hai
your life is like the flow of the river
tan hai naiyyaa, man patavaar hai) – 2
like the boat moves with the aid of oars, same way a person is motivated by their heart
sun o maanjhi, maujon kee pukaar hai
O boatman, listen to the message of the waves
thaam le tu
thaam le tu masta pavan ka, laharaata aanchal
you should go with the flow/ where the wind is taking you
o maanjhi chal, maanjhi chal, maanjhi chal, o maanjhi chal
(aashaaon se naataa jod le
create a relationship with optimism
ye niraashaa ke bandhan tod de) – 2
break the bonds of pessimism
sun o maanjhi, aaj ka gham tu chhod de
O Boatman(person), forget about today’s sorrows
aaj to pichhe
aaj to pichhe rah gaya hai, saamane hai kal
because today is over but the future is still to come
o maanjhi chal, maanjhi chal, maanjhi chal, o maanjhi
