Tip of the day: "If thine enemy wrong thee, buy each of his children a drum."
-- Chinese proverb
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
RABBA, YEH HIND KI NARI
Rabba, yeh Hind ki nari
Jaisey barfi, made in Navsari.
Ave, to jaisey Ghat par megh
Barkha ki baarish, aur talwar ki tegh.*
Naino se bachiyo* nahi to sau ke bhav
Lag gayi* to beh gaya jaise nadiya me nav.
Ghussa garam, ba-hein* ati naram
Naino me bhara yugon ka bharam.
Cheez hai zalim,* zara sambhalke meri jaan
Pyar se mare chot,* par talwar dar miyan.*
talwar ki tegh - sharp edge of sword, like tegh bahadur
bachiyo - bach ke rahena, a north indian slang
lag gayi - if you are smitten, muhabbat ho gayi
ba-hein - kar, arms of ivory
zalim - zulum karne wala, cruel
chot - var karna, here her onslaught
talwar dar miyan - sworn in scabbard
Arya.
