Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mera kuchh saman tumhare pas pada hai - (2)
O o o... savan ke kuchh bhige bhige din rakhe hain
Aur mere ik khat mai lipatee rat padee hai Woh rat bhula do,

Mera woh saman lauta do - (2)
Mera kuchh saman tumhare pas pada hai - (2)
Patjhad hai kuchh... hai na
O patjhad me kuchh patto ke girne kee ahat
Kano me ek bar pahan ke laut aayee thee Patajhad kee woh sakh abhee tak kanp rahee hai

Woh sakh gira do,

Mera woh saman lauta do - (2)

Ek akelee chhataree mai jab adhe adhe bhig rahe the - (2)

Aadhe sukhe aadhe gile, sukha toh mai le aaye thee
Gila mann shayad bistar ke pas pada ho Woh bhijwa do, mera woh saman lauta do

Ek so sola chand kee ratein ek tumhare kandhe kaa til - (2)
Gilee mahendee kee khushbu,
Jhut muth ke shikwe kuchh
Jhuth muth ke wade sab yad kara do




Sab bhijwa do, mera woh saman lauta do - (2)
Ek ijajat de do bas, jab isako dafanaungee Mai bhee vahee so jaungee - (2)

Overall Meaning

"Mera Kuch Samaan" (Some of my belongings) is a beautifully sad song performed by Asha Bhosle, written by Gulzar, and composed by R.D. Burman for the movie Ijaazat (1987). It's a song about a person who has left some of their belongings behind and wants them back to remember the moments they shared with their loved one. The song opens with the singer saying that some of their belongings are still with their ex-lover, including some rainy days of the monsoon season and a letter that's now stained with tears. The singer asks their former partner to forget those nights and return their belongings.


The second verse is a metaphor for the fall season of life in which things start to fall apart. The singer says that they once wore a pair of leaves (metaphorically) on their ears to return to their beloved in the fall, but those leaves are now trembling and falling, so they request the ex-lover to remove them. The next verse talks about an incident in which the singer was caught in the rain and had to walk home with a half-wet and half-dry umbrella. Only the dry part of the umbrella was taken, and the wet part and its memories were kept with them. They ask for the umbrella back, along with the memories.


The next verse says that on one of the sixteen full moon nights, the singer saw a mole on their lover's shoulder and smelled their henna-scented hair. They also remember their lover's lies and promises and request to remember everything to return their belongings. Finally, they ask for permission to sleep in the same place where their belongings are buried.
