Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kya batayein, kya sunaayein
Jee mein to aata hai
Ki chhod de padhayi re
Kitni maze ki hogi
Freedom ki ladayi re
History chemistry kabhi
Yolo yolo, yolo yolo
Yolo yolo, yolo, yolo yolo
Yeah! c'mon
You only live once
You only live once
Anything you wanna do it
Do it right now
Wanna feel happiness
Do it right now
Wanna get freedom
Do it right now
Don't worry what they say
Just do it right now
Daddy ka nishana hai
100 percent lana hai
Mummy ki tamanna hai
Doctor hi banana hai yeah!
Yeh frustration kaisi hai re
Kya batayein, kya sunaayein
Wo jee mein to aata hai
Ki chhod de padhayi re
Kitni maze ki hogi
Freedom ki ladayi re
History chemistry kabhi
Samajh na aayi re. yeah
You only live once
You only live once
Mil ke saare friends sabhi
Love disco mein jayein hum
Jo apni desire hai yeah
Poori karke aayein hum
Yeh temptation kabse hai re
Kya batayein, kya sunaayein
Wo jee mein to aata hai
Ki chhod de padhayi re
Kitni maze ki hogi
Freedom ki ladayi re
History chemistry kabhi
Samajh na aayi re
The song Expectation by Neeti Mohan is about the pressures that young people often face in modern society. The lyrics speak to the struggle of balancing expectations with personal freedom and happiness. The opening lines "Expectation kitni hai re, kya batayein, kya sunaayein" roughly translate to "How high are expectations, what to tell, what to hear." The singer is feeling overwhelmed by the demands placed on her and is searching for a way to break free.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Yolo Yolo," which stands for "You Only Live Once." This is a reminder to live life to the fullest and take risks. The lines "Anything you wanna do it, do it right now. Wanna feel happiness, do it right now. Wanna get freedom, do it right now. Don't worry what they say, just do it right now" underscore the idea that one should follow their heart and not be held back by external pressures.
In the second verse, the song references the desire to please parents and succeed academically, but the singer feels frustrated and unsure. The lines "Daddy ka nishana hai, 100 percent lana hai. Mummy ki tamanna hai, doctor hi banana hai" roughly translate to "Father's aim is to get 100 percent. Mother's wish is to become a doctor." The singer is torn between these expectations and her own desires.
Overall, Expectation is a catchy and relatable song that speaks to the pressures of youth and the desire for personal freedom.
