Paan Khaye Saiyan Hamarao
Asha Bhosle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

पान खाए सैयां हमारो
सांवली सुरतिया होठ लाल-लाल
है-हाय मलमल का कुरता
मलमल के कुर्ते पे छित लाल-लाल
पान खाए सैयां हमारो

हमने मँगाई सुरमेदानी
ले आया ज़ालिम बनारस का ज़रदा
हमने मँगाई सुरमेदानी
ले आया ज़ालिम बनारस का ज़रदा
आआ
अपनी ही दुनिया में खोया रहे वो
हमारे दिल की न पूछे बेदरदा
पूछे बेदरदा
पान खाए सैयां हमारो
होय-होय
सांवली सुरतिया होठ लाल-लाल
है-हाय मलमल का कुरता
मलमल के कुर्ते पे छित लाल-लाल
पान खाए सैयां हमारो

बगिया गन-गन पायल छुन-छुन
चुपके से आई है रुत मतवाली
बगिया गन-गन पायल छुन-छुन
चुपके से आई है रुत मतवाली
आआ
खिल गई कलियाँ दुनिया जाने
लेकिन न जाने बगिया का माली
बगिया का माली
पान खाए सैयां हमारो
होय-होय
सांवली सुरतिया होठ लाल-लाल
है-हाय मलमल का कुरता
मलमल के कुर्ते पे छित लाल-लाल
पान खाए सैयां हमारो

खा के गिलौरी शाम से उन्हे
सो जाए वो दिया-बाटी से पहले
खा के गिलौरी शाम से उन्हे
सो जाए वो दिया-बाटी से पहले
हां
आँगन-अटारी में घबराई डोलूं
चोरी के डर से दिल मेरा दहले
दिल मेरा दहले
पान खाए सैयां हमारो
सांवली सुरतिया होठ लाल लाल
है-हाय मलमल का कुरता




मलमल के कुर्ते पे छित लाल-लाल
पान खाए सैयां हमारो

पान खाए सैयां हमारो
Our lover eats paan


सांवली सुरतिया होठ लाल-लाल
With dusky complexion and lips stained red


है-हाय मलमल का कुरता
Wearing a soft cotton kurta


मलमल के कुर्ते पे छित लाल-लाल
Red stains on the cotton kurta


हमने मँगाई सुरमेदानी
We asked for Surmedani


ले आया ज़ालिम बनारस का ज़रदा
Our cruel lover brought us Jaarda from Banaras


आआ
(Sound of Jaarda)


अपनी ही दुनिया में खोया रहे वो
They keep losing themselves in their own world


हमारे दिल की न पूछे बेदरदा
Without asking about our heart


पूछे बेदरदा
Without asking about our heart (repeated)


बगिया गन-गन पायल छुन-छुन
The garden's bells jingle


चुपके से आई है रुत मतवाली
Silently comes the intoxicated season


खिल गई कलियाँ दुनिया जाने
The flowers bloomed and the world saw


लेकिन न जाने बगिया का माली
But the gardener is unknown


खा के गिलौरी शाम से उन्हे
After chewing betel leaves in the evening


सो जाए वो दिया-बाटी से पहले
They sleep before putting out the lamp


आँगन-अटारी में घबराई डोलूं
I fearfully roam in the courtyard


चोरी के डर से दिल मेरा दहले
My heart beats fast with the fear of being caught
