Laaga Chunari Mein Daag-(My veil is stained) from Laaga Chunari Mein Daag

Manvaa Mein Mere Aandhi Hai Uthi

A whirlwind has risen out of my assent

Aur Stabdh Khadi Hoon Main
And I’ve stood, stunned

Saanson Mein Baandh Apni Hi Saans

My breath mingled into another’s breath

Nishabd Khadi Hoon Main
Speechless, I’ve stood

Duniyaa Se Jeeti Jeeti, Khud Se Haari
I won the world over, but I was defeated by myself

Bas Dhvast Khadi Hoon Main
My power shattered, I’ve stood

Aaina Main Aur Aks Main

I am the mirror and I am the reflection

Mad Mast Khadi Hoon Main

Frenzied, intoxicated, I’ve stood.

Laaga Chunari Mein Daag Chupaaun Kaise

The veil got stained; how am I to hide it?

Laaga Chunari Mein Daag
The veil got stained

Chunari Mein Daag Chupaun Kaise, Ghar Jaun Kaise

How am I to hide the stain on my veil, how am I to go home?

Laaga Chunari Mein Daag
The veil got stained

Jham Jham Jham Jham Jhamjawaat

Shimmering, sparkling and glittering

Antar Mein Gunje Diwas Raat

The echo differs by day and by night

Ek Shunya Shunya Kapti Vishal

One zero zero, a huge deceit

Maya ka Madhyam Mantra Jaal

Amidst the riches, a net of prayers

Maan Ki Dashe Se Ladti Main Bhidhi
I fought and struggled with the state of my soul/heart

Vishwast Khadi Hoon Main

I have stood, to be counted on

Meri Laaj Main Hoon, Chunar Bhi Main Hoon

I am my shame; I am also my veil

Chunar Pe Daag Bhi Main
I am the stain on the veil

{Ho Gayi Maili Mori Chunariya

{My veil has become dirty

Kore Badan Si Kori Chunariya]x2
The veil that was as untouched as my body} x.2

Haan Jaake Babul Se Nazaren Milaun Kaise
Yes, having come, how will I look into my father’s eyes?

Ghar Jaun Kaise

How am I to go home?

{Laaga Chunari Mein Daag Chupaaun Kaise} x. 2

{The veil got stained; how am I to hide it?} x.2

Main Dhvast Dhvast, Main Nasht Pasht

I am wretched and devastated; I am ruined and destroyed

Main Saral Wirral, Main Ati Vishishta

I am simple, I am precious; I am very special

Main Shyam Shwet, Badal Mein Ret

I am Dark and Fair, I am rippling sand

Nirajhar Si Jhari Hoon Main

I am the incessant rain that won’t start to pour down

Andhiyari Raat, Deepak Main Baati

A whirlwind night, I am a shining lamp

Swapnil Si Khadi Hoon Main

I have stood, dazed

Kanchan Ki Kaaya, Apna Hi Saaya
A body made of glass, I am a shadow of my own self

Bas Khud Se Dari Hoon Main

I have been afraid only of myself

Lakdi Mein Geeti, Thodi Seeli Seeli

Singing in the firewood; [my body] somewhat covered [by it].

Tham Tham Ke Jalli Hoon Main

The fire ceasing from time to time, I have burned on and on

Main Maaya Maaya, Main Chaaya Chaaya

I am an illusion, I am a shadow

Aatma Aur Kaaya Main

I am the soul and the body

[Nishabdh Khadi Hoon Main]x2

{I have stood, stupefied} x.2

Vishwast Khadi Hoon Main

I have stood, to be counted on

{Laaga Chunari Mein Daag
{The veil got stained

Sarvatra Khadi Hoon Main}x.2

I have stood here, there and everywhere} x.2
