Tum Milo – Lyrics + Translation

I wrote this song a few weeks back for UTSAV’s annual culture show “Nataraj 2010”. I was surprised at how it turned out, I think it’s catchy and has a lot of meaning associated to it. It’s about friendships and those relationships that truly matter in our life. So here goes.

Verse:
Jo milo tum kisi se,
Haske kehdo kuch unhi se,
Muskura ke tum jo karlo dosti,

(When you meet someone,
Say something nice and laugh,
Smile and make a friend)

Doston ne yeh kahaa hai,
Dosti mein hi mazaa hai,
Dosti bin kahaa hai zindagi

(Friends have told us that,
In friendship is a world of content
and without it, where is that world?)

Chorus:
Zindagi mein, aur kuch nahi hai,
Aur kuch nahi

(There’s not much else in life
if you cant share it with friends)

Interlude:
Tu itna gumsum kyon khada hai?
In rishton se ab kya bada hai?
To muskurale jo tu zara,
Hoon main tera, Yeh din tera hai.

(Why do you look so sad and down?
What’s bigger than the love for friends
So smile now and know,
I am yours, and this day is yours.)

Verse:
Zindagi mein jab kabhi bhi,
Gham churaale jo khushi bhi,
Yaad karna tum hamari dosti

(If ever in life,
Your sorrows take over your happiness
Just remember this friendship)

Jo milo tum kisi se,
Haske kehdo kuch unhi se,
Muskura ke tum jo karlo dosti,

(When you meet someone,
Say something nice and laugh,
Smile and make a friend)

Chorus:
Zindagi mein, aur kuch nahi hai,
Aur kuch nahi

(There’s not much else in life
if you cant share it with friends)
