Aao Milo Chalo

Aao Milo Chalo
Singers: Shaan, Ustad
Album: Jab We Met
Actors: Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor
Mood: Happy, Fun

Hum jo chalne lage chalne lage hai yeh raastein
Manzil se behtar lagne lage hai yeh raastein
Hum jo chalne lage chalne lage hai yeh raastein
Manzil se behtar lagne lage hai yeh raastein
Aao ko jaaye hum ko jaaye hum yoon la patha
Aao milo chale jaana kahaan na ho patha
Hum jo chalne lage chalne lage hai yeh raastein
Manzil se behtar lagne lage hai yeh raastein

Baite baite aise kaise koi rastha naya sa mile
Tu bhi chale mein bhi chaloon honge kam yeh tabhi faasle
Baite baite aise kaise koi rastha naya sa mile
Tu bhi chalein mein bhi chaloon honge kam yeh tabhi faasle
Aao tera mera na ho kisi se vaastha
Aao milo chalein jaana kahaan na ho patha
Hum jo chalne lage chalne lage hai yeh raastein
Manzil se behtar lagne lage hai yeh raastein

Taani kahin kahin mein samjaoon
Taani kahin kahin mein samjaaon
Ke teri bhi na jeena lage
Ke teri bhi na jeena lage

Aankhein kole neendein bole jaane kaisi jagi bekhudi
Yahaan wahaan dekho kahaan dekhe jaane lagi bekhudi
Aankhein kole neendein bole jaane kaisi jagi bekhudi
Yahaan wahaan dekho kahaan lekhe jaane lagi bekhudi
Aao mil jaayega hoga jahaan pe raastha
Aao milo chalein jaana kahaan no ho patha
Hum jo chalne lage chalne lage hai yeh raastein
Manzil se behtar lagne lage hai yeh raastein

Sajni tu mein math jaaniyon
Preet ki yeh dukhi ho
Nagari dalon ra preet ki
Preet na kariyo....
Note: I'm not very familiar with Punjabi so the last four sentences may not be as they are sung in the song, that is what I understood them to be. Still, awesome!

Translation:
When we started walking, these roads began to stretch
Yes, yes; these roads began to seem better than the destination
When we started walking, these roads began to stretch
Yes, yes; these roads began to seem better than the destination
Come on, let's get lost. Let's just be and then the answer will come
Come, meet me and let's go; we don't know where we're going
When we started walking, these roads began to stretch
Yes, yes; these roads began to seem better than the destination

By just sitting, this way or another, we shall come upon some new road
You keep walking, and so will I; then these distances will grow smaller
By just sitting, this way or another, we shall come upon some new road
You keep walking, and so will I; then these distances will grow smaller
Come, neither you nor I will be anybody's business
Come, meet me and let's go; we don't know where we're going
When we started walking, these roads began to stretch
Yes, yes; these roads began to seem better than the destination

Your eyes opened, yours dreams spoke. Who can know what a recklessness arose!
Have a look around, who can tell where this recklessness brought us?
Your eyes opened, yours dreams spoke. Who can know what a recklessness arose!
Have a look around, who can tell where this recklessness brought us?
Come on, we'll find a road, it has got to be here
Come, meet me and let's go; who knows where it might lead us?

Author's View:
I think this is an awesome song, really. Perhaps because of the slow start, when I actually listened to the song (and this was a couple of years ago), I didn't like it. Yesterday, I sat down and watched the movie for the first time, and I saw that this song fit the movie perfectly. The travelling without a care (which is what I like to do most of the time) and the song's meanings were beautiful. Then I realized that I couldn't get it out of my head, and I still can't. I am not sure if the translations are correct, it's the best I could do, still they are very meaningful. Oh, if only life is so!

Nenje nenje nee enge naanum ange en vaazhvum ange

Anbe anbe naan inge degam inge en jeevan enge

En nadhiye en kanmunne vatri ponai

Vaan mazhayaaga ennai thedi mannil vandhai

En dhaangangal theerkaamal kadalil en sergirai


Heart, oh heart, where are you?

I am also there, my life is also there

Love, my love, I am here

Where is my body?

Where is my soul?

My river, you evaporated in front of my eyes

You came to earth in search for me in the form of rain

Why are you joining the ocean without quenching my thirst?


Nenje nenje nee enge

Naanum ange en vaazhvum ange


Heart, my heart, where are you?

I am also there, my life is also there


Kanne en kanne naan unnai kaanamal

vaanum imannum poyaaga kandene

Anbe en anbe naan unnai cheraamal

aavi en aavi naan etruponene

Veyil kaalam vandhaal dhaan neerum thenaagum

Pirivondru kondaalthaan kaadhal rusiyaagum

Un paarvai padum dhooram en vaazhvin uyir neelum

Un moochu padum neram en degam manalaagum


Dear, my dear, without seeing you

I view the sky and the earth as lies

Love, my love, without joining you

My soul is nothing more than a ghost, I accepted

Only when it is summer will water turn into honey

Only with the view of separation, love is more interesting

The legnth of your vision, that length is my life’s length

The time your breath touches me, my body becomes sand


Nenje nenje nee enge

Naanum ange en vaazhvun ange

Anbe en anbe naan inge

Degam inge en jeevan enge


Heart, oh heart, where are you?

I am also there, my life is also there

Love, my love, I am here

Where is my body, where is my soul?


Kalva e kalva nee kaadhal seyyamal

kannum en nenjum en pechai ketkaadhe

Kaadhal mei kaadhal adhu pattupogadhe

katru nam bhoomi thanai vittupoge

Aagayam idam maari ponaal pogattum

Aanal nee manam maari poga koodathe

E matcha thaamaraye en utcham thaaragaye

Kadal mannaai ponaalum nam kaadhal maaradhe


Cunning, you are cunning, without your love

My eyes and my heart won’t listen to me

Love, true love, it won’t be affected

The wind will never leave our earth

Let the sky fall, I don’t care

But you shouldn’t change your mind about loving me

You, my lucky lotus, the height of my passion

Even if all the oceans of the earth evaporate, our love will never change


Nenje nenje nee enge

Naanum ange en vaazhvum ange

Anbe anbe naan inge

Degam enge en jeevan enge

En nadhiye en kanmunne vatri ponai

Vaan mazhaiyaaga enai thedi mannil vandhay

Un dhaagangal theerkamal kadalai en vaygirai


Heart, oh heart, where are you?

I am there, my life is also there

Love, my love, I am here

Where is my body, my soul?

My river, you evaporated in front of my eyes

You came in search for me to earth in the form of rain

Without quenching your thirst, why are you leaving the ocean?

Siragugal

Siragugal
Movie: Sarvvam
Singers: Benny Dayal, Sadhana Sargam
Actors: Arya, Trisha
Mood: Happy, yet sad...

Siragugal vandhadhu engo sella
Iravugal therndadhu kannil mella
Ninaivugal yengudhu unnai kaanave
Kanavugal pongudhu edhile alla
Valigalum serndhadhu ulle kella
Sugangalum koodudhu unnai thediye

Birds come to go somewhere
Nights exceptionally remained in my eyes slowly
My memories yearn to see you again
My dreams are going to find what
Hurt comes together to kindle inside
Pleasures come together to search for you

Unnai unnai thaandi chella
Konja kaalam konja dooram
Konja neram kooda ennaal aagumo
Unnai unnai thedi dhaane
Indha yekam indha paadhai 
Indha payanam indha vaazhkai aanadho

To pass you and go
Some lifetimes, some distance
Some time also, will it happen?
You, in search of you
This yearning, this way
This journey becomes my life

Kanavugal pongudhu edhile alla
Valigalum serndhadhu ulle kella
Sugangalum koodudhu unnai thediye

My dreams are going to find what
Hurt comes together to kindle inside
Pleasures come together to search for you

Nadhiye nee enge endru karaigal theda koodadha
Nilave nee enge endru mugilgal theda koodadha
Mazhai iravinil kuyilin geetham thudipadhu yaar arivar
Kadal madiyinil kidakkum palarin kanavugal yaar arivar
Alige nee engirukkiray valithal ange angirukkirai
Uyire nee enna seygiray, uyirin ulle vandhu selgirai
Anbe endhan nenjam enge 
Poovin ulle nilavin mele
Theeyin kizhe kaatrin veliye illaye
Undhan kannil undhan moochil
Undhan iravil undhan nenjil
Undhan kaiyil undhan uyiril ulladhe

Ocean, to find you, can’t I search the shores?
Moon, to find you, can’t I search the clouds?
During a night of rain, a bird’s song, in pain who will realize?
Those who are lying in the lap of the ocean, their pain who will realize?
My beautiful, where are you, where it pains, that’s where you are
My life, where are you, you come and go into my life, that’s where you are
My love, where is my heart?
Inside a flower, on top of the moon
Under a fire, outside the breeze, it’s not there
Inside your eyes, in your breath
In your nights, inside your heart
In your hands, in your soul, it’s there

Enakke naan sumayay maari ennai chumandhu vandhene
Unakke naan nizhalay maari unnai thedi vandhene
Viri nanaindhidum neram paarthu imai vilagividadhu
Uyir thudithidum unnai endhan uyir odhikividadhu
Ulagam oru pulli aagudhe nenjam engo midhandhupogudhe
Uyiril oru poo vedikidhe sugamo valiyo ellai meerudhe

I became a burden to myself, and came to you, bearing myself
I became your shadow, and came searching for you
As my eyes get wet, my images will not fade in time
As your soul is in pain, my soul will not leave you and go
The world became a dot, my heart is sinking somewhere
A flower burst in my soul, pleasure or pain is increasing

Siragugal vandhadhu engo sella
Iravugal therndadhu kannil mella
Ninaivugal yengudhu unnai kaanave
Oru imai engilum thenil moozhga
Oru imai mathirum valiyil noga
Idayinil eppadi kanavum kaanumo

Birds came to go somewhere
Nights exceptionally remained in my eyes slowly
My memories yearn to find you
One image is sinking in honey somewhere
One image is getting exceptionally hurt in pain
In between this, how can I dream?

Unnai unnai thaandi chella
Konja kaalam konja dooram
Konja neram kooda ennaal aagumo
Unnai unnai thedi dhaane
Indha yekam indha paadhai 
Indha payanam indha vaazhkai aanadho

To pass you and go
Some lifetimes, some distance
Some time also, will it happen?
You, in search of you
This yearning, this way
This journey becomes my life

I love this song, I just heard it today, and I'm amazed at the beat and the guitar strumming. I like the male vocals better than the female vocals, Sadhana Sargam's getting better though.

Sufi

Sufi
Teri yaadein mujhe tadpaathi hai, tarsaathi hai
Mere dil ko, sanam, dadkaathi hai, behkaathi hai
Tu kabhi kisi aur ki hona nahin
Jaadu tere ishq ne aisa kiya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya

Tu meri chaahatein, meri raahatein, meri aashiqui
Tu meri aarzoo, meri justuju, meri bekhudi
Tu mere dadkanein, meri zindagi
Meri palken pighona nahin
Tu kabhi kisi aur ki hona nahin
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya

Apni tanhaayian, yeh viraaniyan, chalo bantle
Apni aawargi, deewangi, chalo bantle
Bin tere na lage kahin afziyaan
Rair ke khwabon ko pirona nahin
Tu kabhi kisi aur ki hona nahin
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya

Teri yaadein mujhe tadpaathi hai, tarsaathi hai
Mere dil ko, sanam, dadkaathi hai, behkaathi hai
Tu kabhi kisi aur ka hona nahin
Jaadu tere ishq ne aisa kiya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya
Sufi tere pyaar mein ban hi gaya

Maula MEre Maula

Aankhein teri... jitni haseen
Ke inka aashiq mein ban gaya hoon
Mujko basa le in mein tu
Mujse yeh har ghadi mera dil kahe
Tu hi to meri aarzoo
Mujse yeh har ghadi mere lab kahe
Tu hi to meri guftugu
Baathein teri jitni haseen
Mein yaad unko jab kartha hoon
Phoolon si aaye khushbu
