Surmayi Akhiyon Mein Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Sadma
surmayee ankhiyon main nanha munna ek sapana de jaa re
surmayee: of surma or collyrium; of the colour of surma
in the collyrium eyes, give a away little dream
nindiya ke udate paakhi re, ankhiyon mein aaja saathi re
o flying bird of sleep, come to my eyes o partner
raa rii raa ram o raaree ram
sachcha koyi sapanaa dejaa
give me away a some true dream
mujhako koyi apana dejaa
give me someone my own
anajaana sa magar kuchh pahchaana sa
it’s stranger but still like a known
halka pulka shabnami
light and like dew
resham se bhi reshami
softer than silk
suramai…
raat ke rath pe jaane vaale
o you who travel over the chariot of night
neend ka ras barasaane vaale
o you who shower the sleeps
itana kar de ke meri ankhein bhar de
do this favor to me that fill my eyes
aankhon mein basata rahe, sapana ye hansata rahe
let the dream reside in my eyes and keep smiling
sapana yoon chalata rahe
let this dream continue like this
ankhiyon main basata rahe
let it reside in my eyes always
suramai…
