Dagariya Chalo Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Chalte Chalte (2003)
rang-birangi duniya saari
The entire many-colored world,
bhaant bhaant ke log
all the different sorts of people,
milke bichharna bichharke milna
must meet and part, part and meet again;
saara hai sanjog
it’s all one big union.
dekhe jo aise tamaashe
Watching such spectacles,
phuute hai dil mein bataashe
fireworks burst in the heart.
duniya ke sau ruup saare niraale
The world has a hundred aspects, all extraordinary.
baitho na tum aise man ko sambhaale
So don’t sit there guarding your heart like that;
prem nagariya ki tum bhi dagariya chalo
walk the road that leads to the city of love.
ham to chalein sang tum bhi gujariya chalo
We’ll go together; come dancing!
duniya ke sau ruup saare niraale
The world has a hundred aspects, all extraordinary.
baitho na tum aise man ko sambhaale
So don’t sit there guarding your heart like that;
prem nagariya ki tum bhi dagariya chalo
walk the road that leads to the city of love.
ham to chalein sang tum bhi gujariya chalo
We’ll go together; come dancing!
rut ne chunariya jo laharaayi to lahara gaye raaste…
When the season waved its scarf, the roads rippled in reply.
har mor par hai kahaani koi tere mere vaaste
On each bend in the road there’s some story for you and me.
raahein gaayein dishaayein guunjti hain aur gungunaati hain
The roads will sing; every direction echoes and hums.
hawaayein jo chale hamse yeh kahati jaati hai
The winds that blow keep telling us this:
raahi ghuum ho kahaan aa aayo yahaan
Wherever you are wandering, come, come here!
prem nagariya ki tum bhi dagariya chalo
Walk the road that leads to the city of love.
ham to chalein sang tum bhi gujariya chalo
We’ll go together; come dancing!
duniya ke sau ruup saare niraale
The world has a hundred aspects, all extraordinary.
baitho na tum aise man ko sambhaale
So don’t sit there guarding your heart like that;
prem nagariya ki tum bhi dagariya chalo
walk the road that leads to the city of love.
ham to chalein sang tum bhi gujariya chalo
We’ll go together; come dancing!
o maadho jaaye kahin
Oh Madho, wherever you go,
o maadho jaaye kahaan ho
Oh Madho, no matter where you might go,
hamri dulhaniya jahaan ho
there you will be my bride.
parbat se jaake badariya mili kaliyon se bhanware mile…
The clouds went and found the mountain; the bees found the blossoms…
ithalaake balkhaati nadiya chali saagar se milne gale
Strutting, twisting, the river went to embrace the sea.
haule haule milan ke git jo laharon mein ghulke bahate hain
Slowly, softly, the songs of union mix in the waves and sing.
to mithi boliyon mein saare panchhi kahate hain
In sweet voices, all the birds speak;
rut milan ki hai jo kah rahi hai suno
listen to what the season of union is saying.
prem nagariya ki dagariya chalo
Walk the road that leads to the city of love.
ham to chalein sang tum bhi gujariya chalo
We’ll go together; come dancing!
duniya ke sau rang saare niraale
The world has a hundred aspects, all extraordinary.
baitho na tum aise man ko sambhaale
So don’t sit there guarding your heart like that;
prem nagariya ki tum bhi dagariya chalo
walk the road that leads to the city of love.
ham to chalein sang tum bhi gujariya chalo
We’ll go together; come dancing!
prem nagariya ki tum bhi dagariya chalo
Walk the road that leads to the city of love.
