Tukur Tukur Tukur Tukur Tukur Tukur
dekh Taka Tak..

Tukur Tukur doesn’t have a meaning in itself, but the meaning of Tukur Tukur dekhna, is to see someone continuously, to stare, or to look at someone intently. Hence, the line above means ‘look intently, continuously.’

dil mein haan hai hoThon pe naa
dil mein haan hai hoThon pe naa aaye..
bhare bazaar mein dil toD gayi zaalima

there is yes in the heart, and no on the lips,
and openly in front of everyone the cruel girl broke my heart..

Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur
dekh Taka Tak

aashiqon ki jaan le gayi
aashiqon ki jaan le gayi
kaahe rumaal magar chhoD gayi zaalima

she took the life the lovers,
but why did the cruel one leave her handkerchief..

Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur
dekh Taka Tak

chahne wale tere jitne hazaar sanam
baDh ke humse nahi honge dildaar sanam
ye zamana hai bewafaa
ye zamana hai bewafaa
mile mushkil se wafadaar koi baalma

howsoever many your lovers are there, O dear,
they won’t be more generously loving than I,
this world is unfaithful,
you get a faithful lover with much difficulty..

Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur
dekh Taka Tak

pa ra re pa...

ai ai aa vasco da gama
ai ai aa pagDi pajama

pagDi pajama literally means Turban and pyjama bottoms, though it is used more like Gibberish here.

hosh mein hi sahi
magar gustaakhiyaan hon zara
aa tujhe choom loon
bhale badnaamiyaan hon zara

even if in full senses,
there should be some mischiefs,
come I’ll kiss you,
even if there be some infamies..

husn hai bekaabu agar
husn hai bekaabu agar (haT)
kaahe jazbaat ko kaabu mein rakhe baalma

if the beauty is uncontrolled,
why do you keep your emotions in control, O beloved..

Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur
dekh Taka Tak

ai yai yai ya vasco da gama
ai yai yai ya pagDi pajama

pyaar kya cheez hai
peechha chhoDe naa wo marz hai
umr bhar sar se jo
miyan utre na wo karz hai
is se bach ke rehna zara
is se bach ke rehna zara
nazar andaaz naa kar mashwara ye kaam ka

what a thing love is,
it’s that disease that doesn’t leave you,
it’s that loan
which doesn’t get paid in the entire life..
beware of it,
and don’t ignore this useful advice..

Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur Tukur-Tukur
dekh Taka Tak

na marna munasib, jiya bhi na jaaye re..
dayre.. dayre.. dayre.. dayre..

it doesn’t seem right to die, nor am I able to live..

Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singers: Arijit Singh, Antara Mitra
Label: Sony Music India

janam janam janam saath chalna yoon hi
kasam tumhe kasam aake milna yaheen
ek jaan hai bhale do badan hon judaa
meri ho ke hamesha hi rehna kabhi na kehna alvida

life after life we have to walk together like this only,
take an oath, meet me here only..
we are one life, even if these are two different bodies,
always remain mine, never say goodbye..

meri subah ho tumhi
aur tumhi shaam ho
tum dard ho tum hi aaraam ho
meri duaaon se aati hai bas ye sadaa
meri hoke hamesha hi rehna kabhi na kehna alvida

you are my morning,
and you are the evening,
you are the pain and you are the peace,
from my prayers, only this call comes,
always remain mine, never say goodbye..

meri hoke hamesha hi rehna
kabhi na kehna alvida..

teri baahon mein hain mere dono jahaan
tu rahe jidhar meri jannat waheen
jal rahi agan hai jo ye do tarfa
na bujhe kabhi meri mannat yahi
tu meri aarzoo, main teri aashiqui
tu meri shaayari, main teri mausiki

both my worlds are in your arms,
wherever you stay, my heaven is there only..
this fire that is there on both the sides,
this fire should never extinguish, this is my prayer
you are my wish, I am your love,
you are my poetry, I am your music..

talab talab talab bas teri hai mujhe
nashon mein tu nasha banke ghulna yoon hi
meri mohabbat ka karna tu haq ye adaa
meri hoke hamesha hi rehna
kabhi na kehna alvida

I have a longing just for you..
you become an intoxication above all others and dissolve in me,
you pay this back for my love,
always remain mine, never say goodbye..

meri subah ho tumhi
aur tumhi shaam ho
tum dard ho, tum hi aaraam ho
meri duaaon se aati hai bas ye sadaa
meri hoke hamesha hi rehna
kabhi na kehna alvida..

Premika Meaning | प्रेमिका

Premika or Premikaa (प्रेमिका) is a Hindi word which can actually be used for 'lover' or 'beloved', as per the context. It comes from Hindi word 'prem' which means love, and a guy who loves someone is called a 'premi.' At the same time, the girl who may just be a beloved can also be called premikaa, though the word is more often used for someone who is in love as well, and is a lover.

So in essence, premika is mostly 'lover,' but can be used for 'beloved' at times.

Manma Emotion Jaage Lyrics Translation | Dilwale

Movie: Dilwale
Music: Pritam
Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singers: Amit Mishra, Anushka Manchanda, Antara Mitra
Label: Sony Music India

goriya re chhoriya re
tera jalwa dekha to dil huaa Milkha
baDi tez bhaage re..
manma emotion jaage re
manma emotion jaage

o beautiful girl,
when I saw your style, my heart became like Milkha,
it runs very fast..
emotions woke anew in my heart..

dil jagah se hil gaya re
tukDon mein nikla re dil ka chhilka
tune phenka khaa ke re
manma emotion jaage re
manma emotion jaage

the heart moved from its place,
the skin of the heart came out in pieces (like that of some fruit),
you ate and threw it.
emotions woke anew in my heart..

saiyaan.. mera desi typical saiyaan
peepal ki ThanDi chhaiya
mein naache ta ta thaiya
thaiya daiya daiya

my beloved, my typical desi beloved,
the cool shade of Peepal tree,
he dances in that shade,
O my god..

o mere saiyaan, saiyaan saiyaan!
saiyaan.. saiyaan..

dil ki phansi hai naiyyaa majdhaar mein
sun le vistaar mein
ho luT gaya pyaar mein
ye to bata de mere jazbaat ka
itna kam raTe kyun hai tere bazaar mein

the boat of the heart is stuck in the middle,
listen to me in detail,
I have been robbed in love.
at least tell me why the rate of my love
is so low in the market of love..

karke vaada, kyun na aayi
huaa dil ka jagrata
halka-phulka sa dhokha kha ke
manma emotion jaage re
manma emotion jaage

even after promising, why didn’t you come
the heart had an all-nighter,
after being deceived a little,
the heart was full of emotions..

(rap)
tu jo mila mujhe mohalle ke moD pe
express highway ke baaju wali roaD pe
badtameez gaaDi roki seeTi maari
mujhe chheDa kiya mujhko ishaara
ashleel aaDa teDha
dekha muDa baDha bola
lakht-e-jigar mast figure
aake idhar baiTh jaa
baaju waali seaT khaali, aaja baiTh!

when I met you on the turn of the street,
on the road next to the express highway,
the ill mannered one, he whistled after stopping me..
you teased me and signalled,
shameless, obscure,
saw, turned, moved ahead, said,
O piece of my heart, awesome figure,
come here and sit,
the seat next to me is free, come sit.

saiyaan.. mera desi typical saiyyaan
peepal ki ThanDi chhaiyyan
mein naache ta ta thaiya thaiya daiya daiya

mera desi typical saiyyaan
peepal ki ThanDi chhaiyyan
mein naache ta ta thaiya
thaiya saiyan saiyan thaiya

Geruaa / Gerua Meaning | गेरुआ

To begin with, Geruaa is a color. The red-ochre color, somewhat reddish, yellowish orange, or a shade of pink to an extent. It comes from the Hindi word geru/ geroo, which means nothing but red ochre, or in some regions, the red soil, which is rich in iron oxides.

However, here the significance of geruaa is a bit different. Geruaa is generally considered a color worn by sages and hermits, and thus, here symbolizes people who have left everything to find the One they are looking for. The word geruaa in the song rang de tu mohe geruaa, thus, gives a kind of sufi touch to the it, as the lovers here want to get colored ‘geruaa' like someone who has left the worldly things, and just be in love.

Btw, the orangish color you see along with the black in the picture below, that is Gerua.

Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singers: Arijit Singh, Antara Mitra
Label: Sony Music India

Geruaa is a color somewhere between orange, saffron, and pink, somewhat like a Salmon. However, for the ease of reading, we have just written pink here in the song's translation. More detail on the meaning of Geruaa can be found HERE.

dhoop se nikal ke
chhanv se phisal ke
hum mile jahaan par
lamha tham gaya

coming out like the sunshine,
or slipping like the shadow,
wherever we met,
the moment stopped there..

aasmaan pighal ke
sheeshe mein dhal ke
jam gaya to tera
chehra ban gaya

when the sky melted
got moulded into glass,
and solidified,
it became your face..

duniya bhula ke tumse mila hoon
nikli hai dil se ye duaa
rang de tu mohe gerua
raanjhe ki dil se hai duaa
rang de tu mohe gerua

I have forgotten the world and met you
and only this wish has come out of my heart,
color me pink..
this is the heartfelt wish of your lover,
color me pink..

haan nikli hai dil se ye duaa
ho.. rang de tu mohe gerua

ho tumse shuru.. tumpe fanaa
hai sufiyana ye daastaan
main kaarwaan maznil ho tum
jaata jahaan ko har raasta

it starts with you and ends on you,
this story is quite Sufi-style..
I am the caravan, and you are the destination,
where every path leads..

tumse juDa jo
dil zara sambhal ke
dard ka wo saara
kohra chhan gaya

when the heart controlled itself a bit
and got attached to you,
all the fog of pain that was there
was washed away..

duniya bhula ke tumse mila hoon
nikli hai dil se ye duaa
rang de tu mohe gerua
ho.. ranjhe ki dil se hai duaa
rang de tu mohe gerua

veeraan tha, dil ka jahaan
jis din se tu daakhil hua
ik jism se hai ik jaan ka
darza mujhe haasil hua

the world of the heart was deserted,
but from the day you entered it,
I have got the status of a living being
from being just a body..

pheeke hain saare naate jahaan ke
tere saath rishta gehra ban gaya

all the relations of the world are pale,
now that there is a deep bond with you..

duniya bhula ke tumse mila hoon
nikli hai dil se ye duaa
rang de tu mohe gerua
ranjhe ki dil se hai duaa
rang de tu mohe gerua

haan nikli hai dil se ye duaa
ho.. rang de tu mohe geruaa
