Humhi duno to husn o ishk ki duniya ke hain malik
Humi duno to husn o ishk ki duniya ke hain malik(chorus)
Jo tu aarshi to mein farshi falak tera jameen meri
Jo tu aarshi to mein farshi falak tera jameen meri(chorus)
Udhar tu dar na kholega idhar mein dsar na choduga

Udhar tu dar na kholega idhar mein dsar na choduga(chorus)
Hukumat apni apni hain
Wahan teri yahan meri
Apni masti masti masti mein(2)

Paaon mein par gayenge ab chalte chalte chaale
Paaon mein par gayenge ab chale chale chaale(chorus)

Girne ho hai jameen pe hai kon jo sumbhaley

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of deLillos's song "Hold på en venn" (translated to "Hold on to a friend") depict a deep sense of togetherness, friendship, and finding solace in someone's company. The opening lines suggest that the two individuals singing the song are the owners of the world of beauty and love. They assert that if one is the throne, the other is the sky, signifying a deep connection between them. The chorus repeats this idea, emphasizing their shared ownership of the world.


The next set of lines highlights the trust and reliance between them. It states that one will not open the door there (likely referring to the outside world), while the other will not leave this place. It implies that they are committed to staying together and not allowing external influences to disturb their bond.


The song then takes a lighter turn, describing their shared enjoyment and mischief. They declare that each has their own authority and space, with one line dedicated to the other person's world (teri) and the other line to their own (meri). This suggests that they respect each other's freedom while finding joy in their shared adventures and playfulness.


The verse about a devotee wearing a garland and their feet levitating while walking illustrates a spiritual element. It suggests a divine presence that is guiding and protecting them. The following lines urge someone to come and save them, addressing a Baba (spiritual leader) associated with Shirdi (a town in India known for its religious significance). This indicates seeking guidance or help in times of need.


The chorus repeats the idea that they do not care about the world's concerns or what they will gain from it. It signifies a detachment from worldly matters and a focus on the bond they share.


Overall, the lyrics convey a deep bond of friendship and togetherness, highlighting the importance of cherishing and holding on to the people who bring comfort and happiness into our lives.
