Behti Boondein
Coshish Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tu dhoka hai, gumrah akela
Tu dard hai, ya koi ghaav gehra
Tu parchhayee, behti hawa ki
Dhalta sooraj, ya ghor andhera
Teri kahani ankahi, jaise patthey murjhaye
Toh ruk ja tu kahi, tu behta kyu hai aise jaise
Behti boondein, behta aise...
Behti boondein!

(Music)
Aankhen khuli, khwabon se
Aur bikhre taare, aangan mein
Koi savera, chhupa hai
Jaise andhera, raaton mein
Teri kahani ankahi, jaise patthey murjhaye
Toh ruk ja tu kahi, tu behta kyu hai aise jaise
Behti boondein, behta aise...
Behti boondein!
(Music)
Teri yaadein, khoyi nahi
Aur saari baatein, khoyi nahi

Aur saare taare, tere liye hai
Aur saare baadal bhi, tere liye!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Coshish's song Behti Boondein capture a sense of existential questioning and introspection, as well as an observation of the natural world. The first stanza suggests a feeling of being let down or deceived by someone or something, represented in the line "Tu dhoka hai, gumrah akela" ("You are a deception, lost and alone"). The following lines use metaphors of pain and shadows to further explore this emotion. The second stanza shifts to a more abstract focus, describing a dreamlike setting where stars and daylight are mixed together. The final stanza brings together the two themes, suggesting that memories and experiences are inseparable from one's surroundings, concluding with a message of affirmation and interconnectedness.

The repetition of "Behti boondein" throughout the song serves as a refrain, emphasizing the cyclical and ongoing nature of life and the world. The use of metaphor and imagery throughout the lyrics creates a sense of poetic beauty and symbolism. The music adds to this effect, with a haunting and dreamy quality that matches the tone of the lyrics.

Tu dhoka hai, gumrah akela
You are betrayal, lost alone

Tu dard hai, ya koi ghaav gehra
You are pain, or a deep wound

Tu parchhayee, behti hawa ki
You are a shadow, flowing with the wind

Dhalta sooraj, ya ghor andhera
Setting sun, or deep darkness

Teri kahani ankahi, jaise patthey murjhaye
Your untold story, like withered leaves

Toh ruk ja tu kahi, tu behta kyu hai aise jaise
So stop somewhere, why do you keep flowing like this?

Behti boondein, behta aise...
Flowing drops, flowing like this...

Aankhen khuli, khwabon se
Eyes opened from dreams

Aur bikhre taare, aangan mein
And scattered stars in the courtyard

Koi savera, chhupa hai
Some dawn is hidden

Jaise andhera, raaton mein
Like darkness in nights
