The song, Bhaag DK Bose from Delhi Belly is interesting not for its lyrical value but simply for the pun (and fun) it is. DK Bose can be a common Bengali name, but Bose DK can sound like a bad Hindi slang 'Bhosdi Ke' and the lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya has used this college pun quite interestingly in the song. Also, Aandhi Aayi is common used with the slang and hence it's seen here too.
Daddy mujhse bola, Tu galti hai meri
Tujhpe Zindgani guilty hai meri
Saabun ki Shakal mein, beta tu toh nikla keval jhaag, jhaag jhaag...
Bhaag bhaag...
Bhaag bhaag...
Daddy said to me, "You're my mistake"
My life is guilty of (having) you,
In the name of soap, you turned out to be just foam,
run run...
run run...
Oh by god lag gayi
Kya se kya hua
Dekha toh katora
Jhaanka toh kuaan
Piddi jaissa choohaa
Dum pakda toh nikla kala naag
Naag naag naag,
Bhaag...
Bhaag bhaag DK bose, DK bose, D K bose
bhaag bhaag DK "Bose dk" bhaag..
Oh by god, I was damned,
became what from what I was (so bad from so good)
looked like a bowl,
when peeked into, a well..
A tiny little mouse,
when caught the tail, turned out to be a black snake,
snake snake...
run run, DK Bose DK Bose DK Bose
run run DK Bose DK run..
Aandhi aayi aandhi aayi aandhi aayi..
Bhaag bhaag DK bose, D K bose, D K bose
Bhaag bhaag DK Bose DK bose
Aandhi Aayi hai...
storm's come storm's come storm's come
run run, DK Bose DK Bose DK Bose
run run DK Bose DK run..
Storm has come..
Hum toh hai kabootar, Do pahiye ka ek scooter Zindagi
Jo Dhakelo toh Chale
Arre kismat ki hai kadki, Roti Kapda aur Ladki teeno hi
Paapad belo toh miley..
Yeh bheja garden hai, aur tension maali hai.. yeah..
Mann ka taanpoora, frustration me chhede ek hi Raag.. Raag Raag..
Bhaag.....
We're pigeons, life's a scooter with two wheels,
if you push, it moves (forward),
our luck is bad, food, cloth and girl all three (basic needs)
are achieved only when we work very hard
this mind is garden, and tension is the gardener,
the tanpoora (musical instrument) of heart, plays just one raaga in frustration,
run run....
Bhaag bhaag DK bose, DK bose, D K bose
bhaag bhaag DK Bose DK bhaag..
Hey Aandhi Aayi Hai Aandhi Aayi Hai
Aandhi Aayi Hai...
