Main Rikshwaala Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Choti Bahen
main rikhshaavala, main rikhshaavalaa
I’m the Rickshaw-driver,I’m the Rickshaw-driver,
hain chaar ke baraabar ye do taang vaalaa
this two-legged living being equals the four,
kahan chaloge baabu, kahan chaloge laalaa
where will you go, sir?, where shall I take you, Monsieur?(2)
main rikhshaavala, main rikhshaavalaa
I’m the Rickshaw-driver,I’m the Rickshaw-driver,
dhoor, dhoor, dhoor koyi mujhko bulaye, mujhko bulaye
far, far, far away, someone is hailing me, hailing me,
kyaa karoon dil use, bhool na paaye, bhool na paaye
what should I do, as my heart can’t forget her, can’t forget,
main rishtein joroon dil ke,
I bring the relationship of hearts together,
mujhe hi manzil pe,koyi na pahunchaye, koyi na pahunchaye
but no one takes me to my destination, no one takes me,
main rikhshaavala
I’m the Rickshaw-driver…
thi kabhee chaand thak apnee udaan, apnee udaan
was once upto the Moon,the leap of my desires,the leap of my desires,
ab ye dhool, ye sadak, apna jahaan, apna jahaan
now this dust, this path, is my world, is my world,
jo koyi dekhe chaunke uparavaala bhi soche
whoever sees my state, wonders, as the Almighty, too, ponders,
ye kaisaa insaan ye kaisaa insaan
what kinda human is this?, what kinda human is this?,
main rikhshaavala
I’m the Rickshaw-driver…
raat din, har ghadee, ek savaal, ek savaal
day and night, every moment, only one question, one question,
rotiyaan kam hain kyun
why on the earth is the shortage of Food,
Roti is the Hindi word for the bread made up of dough
kyon hai akaal, kyon hai akaal
why is this famine?, why is this famine?,
kyon duniyaa me kamee hain, ye chori kisne kee hai
why there is the absence of contentment?, who has done plunder of peace?,
kahaa hai saara maal, kahaa hai saaraa maal
where is the peace?, where is the all peace?,
main rikhshaavala
I’m the Rickshaw-driver…
