Hum Logon Ko Samajh Sako Toh Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani
Hum logon ko samaj sako to samjo dilbarjani
If you can understand us do so dearhearts
jitna bi tum samjoge utni hogi harani
the more you understand the more astonished you will become
apni chhatri tumko dede kabi jo barse pani
we give you our umbrella when the water showers (rain)
kabi naye packet me tumko beche cheez purani
and we sell you an old item in a new packet
phir bi dil hain hindustani
even then at heart we are Indian ( ? friendly)
thode anari hain thode khiladi
we ae a bit ignorant and a little player
ruk ruk ke chalti hi apni gadi
our car of life halts and goes
hame pyaar chahiya , aur kuch paisa bi
we want love , and some money too
hum aisa be hain, ham hain waise be
we are like this , and like that too
ulti sidi jaisi bi hai apni yeh kahani
topsy turvy that is our story
thodi hum me hoshiari hai , thodi nadini
a little cleverness in us , a little naievity
thodi hum me sachai , thodi beimani
a little truthfullness , a little double dealing
ankhon me kuch ansoo hain , kuch sapne hain
in our eyes are some tears , some dreams
ansoon aur sapne dono hi apne hain
tears and dreams both are our own
dil dukha hai lekin toota to nahin hai
our heart is sorrowful , but not broken
umeed ka daman chhoota to nahin hai
the shelter ( head covering) of hope , we havent let go of
it
thodi mujboori hain , lekin thodi manmani hain
we have some compulsions , but some willfulness too
thodi tu tu me me hain , aur thodi kichha thani
a little bickering , and some pull and push
hum me kafee baten hain jo lagti hain diwani
in us many things appear to be a bit mad
phir bi dil hai hindutani..
even so at heart we are Indians..
hum logon ko samaj sako to samjao dilbar jani
if you can understand us then understand this dear hearts
mur jayenge , mit jayenge , denge har kurbani
we will die , we will be obliterated , we will give any
sacrifice
tod ke sare bandan humne dil ki baat hai mani
breaking all relationships we have listened to our heart
ankhin me sholay badke hain , sanse hain toofani
in our eyes are the sparks (of anger) , our breathing is
stormy
sadiyon ki neen se hum hai jage
we have woken from the sleep of centuries
janaa hai hum meelo aage
we have yet to go miles and miles
hum jaise bi hon badte jayenge
whatever shape we are in , we will move forward
hum ne apne rasam ada aur manzil pehchani
we recognize our traditions and our goal
???
dil kehta hai zulm ke aage gardan nahin jukayenge
our heart tells us not to bow our head in front of
atrocities
