Dhuan Dhuan Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Mission Kashmir
chorus:
dhuaan…
Smoke…
dhuaan hi dhuaan…
Smoke, only smoke…
dhuaan…
Smoke…
dhuaan hi dhuaan…
Smoke, only smoke…
ye saazishein dishaaon ki
In these storms of intrigue,
ye saazishein havaaon ki
in these winds of conspiracies,
lahuu-luhaan ho gayi zamin ye devtaaon ki
the hallowed earth of the gods has been bloodied.
na shankh ki sadaavein hain
We hear no more the sacred call of the conch,
na ab sadaa azaan ki
and no more the call to the faithful.
nazar meri zamin ko lagi hai aasmaan ki
Alas, my land is cursed. (Literally: the gaze of the heavens has fixed upon my land.)
hai dar badar ye log kyon jale hain kyon makaan
Why are these people fleeing? Why are these homes burning?
dhuaan…
Smoke…
dhuaan hi dhuaan…
Smoke, only smoke…
ye kisne aag daal di hai narm narm ghaas par
Who spilt fire on these tender fields of grass?
likha hua hai zindagi yahaan har ek laash par
A desperate longing for life is written on each corpse. (Literally: life is written here, on each and every corpse.)
ye takht ki ladaai hai
This is a battle for power, (Literally: This is the throne’s payment.)
ye kursiyon ki jung hai
a war between politicians. (Literally: a war of seats / thrones.)
ye begunaah khoon bhi sivaasaton ka rang hai
The blood of innocents is the color used to
lakir khainch di gavi dilon ke darmivaan
draw borders between our hearts.
Chorus
