Jab Chaye
Asha Bhosle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

जब छाए मेरा जादू
कोई बच ना पाए हाय
जब छाए मेरा जादू
कोई बच ना पाए हाय

फूलों की नर्मी हूँ मैं
शोलों की गर्मी हूँ मैं
फूलों की नर्मी हूँ मैं
शोलों की गर्मी हूँ मैं
तूफ़ानों सी हलचल हूँ
हवाओं का आँचल हूँ मैं
जो ढूंढे वो पाए
फिर भी हाथ ना आए हाय
जब छाए मेरा जादू
कोई बच ना पाए हाय

कभी मैं दर्द जागती हूँ
कभी मैं ज़ख़्म मिटाती हु
कभी मैं दर्द जागती हूँ
कभी मैं ज़ख़्म मिटाती हु
कभी में राज़ छुपाती हूँ
कभी खुद राज़ बन जाती हूँ
दिल टूटे या साथ च्छुटे
फिर भी तू पीछे आए हाय हो




जब छाए मेरा जादू
कोई बच ना पाए हाय

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Asha Bhosle's song "Jab Chaye" convey a sense of power and uniqueness. The repetition of the phrase "Jab Chaye mera jadoo, koi bach na paaye haye" suggests that when her magic comes upon someone, they are unable to escape its influence.


The following lines, "Phoolon ki narmi hoon main, sholon ki garmi hoon main" highlight the contrasting aspects of her character. As delicate and soft as a flower, yet as fiery and intense as flames. This portrays her multifaceted nature, suggesting that she possesses both vulnerability and strength simultaneously.


The lyrics continue with "Toofano si halchal hoon, hawaon ka aanchal hoon main." These lines exemplify her ability to stir up chaos and create a tornado-like effect, while also being a gentle embrace like the veil of the wind. This demonstrates her range of impact and the deep influence she has on those around her.


The chorus repeats the statement that even if someone searches for what her magic brings, it remains elusive to their grasp. No matter how hard they try, they are unable to fully experience or comprehend the depth of her enchantment.


The second verse emphasizes her capacity to incite pain and simultaneously heal wounds. "Kabhi main dard jagti hoon, kabhi main zakhm mitaati hoon" indicates that she is capable of awakening and alleviating the suffering of others, alluding to her empathetic nature. Furthermore, the contrast between hiding secrets and revealing her own truths adheres to her enigmatic personality, where she may become a confidant while still maintaining her own sense of mystery.


The lyrics conclude with the statement "Dil tute ya saath chhute, phir bhi tu peeche aaye haye ho." These lines express that even in times of heartbreak or loss, the person addressed in the song still comes back to her. This could represent the magnetic pull she has on others, regardless of the challenges they face or the moments they may become distant.


Overall, "Jab Chaye" captures the essence of an individual who possesses a captivating and overpowering presence. The lyrics delve into the complexities of their character, showcasing their ability to bring both joy and pain, to unleash chaos and tranquility, and to create a profound impact on those around them.
