Payaliya (Dev D) Lyrics, Translation



Translating the song, Payaliya, is a tough task. Here is a translation of the song, as much as was possible for me. I can never get the expressions even close here, but I have tried that you get the meaning of the words at least. Congrats again to Amit Trivedi, Amitabh Bhattacharya, and Shruti Pathak for making this wonderful thing.

Jaanu nahin kaise, jaanu nahi kaise,
Piya ghar jaun
Paayaliya, paayaliya kahe ke piya ghar jaaun
Paayaliya, paayaliyaa...


I don't know how, I don't know how,
to go to my beloved's home,
anklet, oh, (my) anklet says she wants to go to my beloved's home..
anklet, anklet..

Paayaliya chhan chhan, chhan chhan shor kare mohe piya ghar jaaun
Paayaliya, paayaliya kahe ke piya ghar jaaun- 2


the anklet makes noise, says she wants to go to my beloved's home..
anklet, oh, (my) anklet says she wants to go to my beloved's home..

Araj araj kari, garaj karajwa ko
Kare hal pal bechain
Daras daras ko kahe paayaliya
Aas lagawe din rain
Soojh boojh bhulawe
Goonj goonj uthawe
Piya ko pukare haye re...
haan, jiya pe chhaye, jiya pe chhaye
Chhaye, chhaye, chhaye, chhaye re


it requests and requests, growls for a credit (of going to his house)
makes me restless every moment
for a sight (of the beloved), why does the anklet
hope day and night..
it makes me forget all my intelligence (conscious)
resounds loudly,
calls the beloved..
it covers my heart (under its effect), covers my heart,
completely covers it..

Paayaliya, paayaliya kahe ke piya ghar jaaun- 2

Asar asar aso basar basar kari
Neendein bisar karde
Janam janam ki preet lutati haye
Saiyan ke milan ko re
Paas paas bulawe
Raas raas rachawe
Piya ko manawe hai re...
haan, mujhe sajaye, mujhe sajaye,
Hai, hai, hai, hai re


such an effect it leaves,
it makes me forget sleeps,
it sacrifices/gifts love of many incarnations,
to meet the beloved,
calls him close, closer,
performs love (the word raas is actually most used in context of Lord Krishna)
appeases the beloved..
it beutifies me, yeah, beautifies me..

Paayaliya, paayaliya kahe ke piya ghar jaaun
Piya ghar jaaun..
