Roo-ba-roo...

Hindi Lyrics	English translation
aye saala	O cool
abhi abhi	Just now
huaa yaqeen	I got convinced
ki aag hai	that there is fire
mujh mein kahi	somewhere within me
hui subaah	Dawn arrived
main chal gaya	I walked ahead
suraj ko main	The sun I
nigal gaya	swallowed down
roo-ba-roo	Face-to-face
roshni (2) hai	There is light (meaning: finally I see the light)
jo gumshuda	That (as good as/almost) lost
sa khwaab tha	The dream that was
voh mil gaya	That has been found
voh khil gaya	that has blossomed
woh loha tha	That was iron
pighal gaya	It’s melted
Kheencha kheencha	Stretching stretching
machal gaya	Is jumping with joy
sitaar mein	Into sitar
badal gaya	It has turned
roo-ba-roo	Face-to-face
roshni (2) hai	There is light
(dhuaan chhataa khula gagan mera	The smoke has moved away, my sky has opened up
nayi dagar naya safar mera	It’s a new road, a new journey of mine
jo ban sake tu hamsafar mera	If you can become my co-traveller (companion) in this journey
nazar mila zara) - 2	Let your eyes face mine (meaning: Join me)
aandhiyon se jhagad rahi hai lau meri	The flame within me is fighting with storms
ab mashaalon si badh rahi hai lau meri	Now the flame within me is growing in size like torches do
naamo nishaan	Any remnants (name or mark)
rahe na rahe	Remain or not
ye kaaravaan	This caravan
rahe na rahe	Remains or not
ujaale mein	The lights I have
pee gaya	Gulped down
roshan huaa	I’ve lit up
jee gaya	I’ve started living
kyon sehte rahein?	Why should we go on tolerating?
roo-ba-roo roshni (2) hai	Face-to-face there is light (or I’m facing light)
dhuaan chhataa khula gagan mera	The smoke has moved away, my sky has opened up
nayi dagar naya safar mera	It’s a new road, a new journey of mine
jo ban sake tu hamsafar mera	If you can become my co-traveller (companion) in this journey
nazar mila zara	Let your eyes face mine (meaning: Join me)
roo-ba-roo roshni (2) hai	Face-to-face there is light (or I’m facing light)
aye saala	O cool
