Kehne Ko Dadi Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Jeans
kahane ko daadi lekin saheli daadi ho to aisa
In name, you are my grandmother, but you’re like a friend; every grandmother should be so!
sang sang ye gaaye sang sang ye naache dekho to hai kaisi
She dances and sings with us; see what she’s like!
tumse mujhe lori mili godi mili pyaar mila
From you I’ve had lullabys and love and the comfort of your lap;
mere liye bachpan mein tumne bhala kya na kiya
what didn’t you do for me when I was a child?
par daadi o sweetie ab tak ho beauty
But Grandma, sweetie, you’re still a beauty.
kahane ko daadi lekin saheli daadi ho to aisa
In name, you are my grandmother, but you’re like a friend; every grandmother should be so!
sang sang ye gaaye sang sang ye naache dekho to hai kaisi
She dances and sings with us; see what she’s like!
jeans agar pahano to honthon par lipstick ho
If you wear jeans, put on lipstick,
baalon mein khizaab aaye to phir se shabaab aaye
and dye your hair, you’ll be young again.
yeh are vaah re ye tamaashe ho ga’i kya main badalke
Well done, what I’ve changed into has become a spectacle!
clinton ko main fon laga duun
I’ll phone Clinton;
tum kah dena I love you kyon thik hai na
you tell him, I love you. Is that okay?
kah dena ki dil dekha to miss world main hi huun
Tell him that when I looked into my heart, I discovered that I myself am Miss World!
kahane ko daadi lekin saheli daadi ho to aisa
In name, you are my grandmother, but you’re like a friend; every grandmother should be so!
sang sang ye gaaye sang sang ye naache dekho to hai kaisi
She dances and sings with us; see what she’s like!
disco mein jaao to honthon par bhairavi ho
When you go to a disco, there should be a hymn on your lips.
saahil par tum jaao to bikini bhi pahano
If you go to the seashore, you should wear a bikini.
disneyland ke gate pe jaake daadi banaao ek rangoli pyaari si
Go to the gate at Disneyland and paint some lovely traditional mural on the wall,
aur main bechuun wahaan sarak par bhajiye paao medu baRe
and I’ll sell Indian sweets on the sidewalk there.
kahane ko daadi lekin saheli daadi ho to aisa
In name, you are my grandmother, but you’re like a friend; every grandmother should be so!
sang sang ye gaaye sang sang ye naache dekho to hai kaisi
She dances and sings with us; see what she’s like!
tumse mujhe lori mili godi mili pyaar mila
From you I’ve had lullabys and love and the comfort of your lap;
mere liye bachpan mein tumne bhala kya na kiya
what didn’t you do for me when I was a child?
kahane ko daadi lekin saheli daadi ho to aisa
In name, you are my grandmother, but you’re like a friend; every grandmother should be so!
sang sang ye gaaye sang sang ye naache dekho to hai kaisi
She dances and sings with us; see what she’s like!
