Should I start with Mashallah? Well, I think there is enough said about the song, and then everyone seems to have heard it, so let’s just say the song is probably going to be the weaker part of the album. Or maybe I can say the weakest, if Salman Bhai’s fans allow me to. Not because he’s wrong anywhere, cuz Sajid-Wajid HAVE given some good songs for him. How can I ever forget the small preview of Tere Mast Mast Do Nain I heard at IIFA. That number within seconds told us what a hit it was going to be. But then, this time they seem to have got it wrong. Not too wrong, but..
Banjara banjara
Dil mera banjara
Dekha jab se usko
Dil mera dil mera banjara
Na jaaga na soya
Dil mera dil mera banjara
Jo muskuraye wo
Sab kuch bhulaye woh
Dekho bhai phans gaya re dil bechara
Banjara, banjara
Uski dhun mein dil banjara
Banjara, banjara
Uski dhun mein dil banjara
nomad, nomad,
my heart is a homeless nomad..
Since I saw her,
My heart is a nomad..
Neither it wakes nor sleeps,
My heart is a nomad..
aasmaan, tera mera hua
khwaab ki tarah dhuaan dhuaan
aasmaan, tera mera hua
saans ki tarah ruaan ruaan
jaaye jahan tu jaye
paaye mujhe hi paaye
saaye ye mere hain tujh mein samaaye
Saiyyara main saiyaara
sayyara tu saiyyara
Sitaron ke jahan mein milenge ab yaara
your sky, and mine,
has become all smoke, like a dream..
your sky, and mine,
is spread in parts, like breaths..
wherever you go,
you'll find me only..
these shadows of mine are comprised in you..
planet, I'm a planet now..
Planet, you're a planet (too)..
And we shall meet again in the world of stars now..
tu jo mila to yoon hua
ho gayi poori adhoori si dua
tu jo gaya to le gaya
sang tere mere jeene ki har wajah
Laapata is a Hindi/Urdu word which means Missing or Lost.
The word is basically made of pata (address) being prefixed with la- which means -less. Hence, the word literally means addressless. One without an address.
Laapata is a song sung by KK and Shreya Ghoshal in Salman Khan starrer Ek Tha Tiger.
aankhon ko yoon band karke
dheeme dheeme gin gin ke
dhoondho hame hum hain kahan
bhoole se fasane hain,
zameen pe begaane hain,
dekho hue hum to hawa..
closing the eyes like that,
counting slowly,
find me where I am..
There are forgotten stories,
we're strangers on the earth,
see we're going away with the wind..
dil ke kinare, khwaabon ke neeche
hai khoya khoya apna jahaan
main laapata, tu laapataa...
hosh-o-havaas, hain laapata
Saiyaara is the name of Ek Tha Tiger's song sung by Mohit Chauhan. Saiyaara is an Urdu word which means a planet.
Hence, the meaning of the lyrics 'Saiyyara Main Saiyaara, Saiyaara tu Sayyara, sitaaron ke jahan mein, milenge ab yaara' would translate to 'you're a planet, I'm a planet, and we'd meet in the world of stars now.'
Masha Allah (Masha'Allah or simply Mashallah) literally means 'God has Willed it' and is used to express thankfulness for something good, while praising it. Hence, here, the meaning of Mashallah can be taken as calling someone beautiful, by thanking God for the beauty.
You can listen to the song here, however, it's for online listening only. The CDs can be bought from Flipkart HERE.
Mashallah mashallah
Mashallah mashallah
Chehra hai maashallah
Naino pe naino ka
Pehra hai mashallah
Tujhko churaya hai
Paaya hai ye jahan
God has willed it,
your face is beautiful (as God has willed)
There is a watch of eyes
on the eyes, beautiful..
I have stolen you,
and got this world..
