Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge 1995 · Manpreet Kaur, Pamela Chopra · lyrics Anand Bakshi
What each one means, and the moment it is actually for.
Ghar aaja pardesi
tera des bulaye re
घर आजा परदेसी
तेरा देस बुलाए रे
In English: Come home, traveller. Your country is calling you.
When to send it: For anyone who moved away: a sibling abroad, a child in another city, a friend who has not visited in years. Homesickness rather than romance.
Send this line with flowers 🌙Is gaon ki anpadh mitti
padh nahi sakti teri chitthi
इस गाँव की अनपढ़ मिट्टी
पढ़ नहीं सकती तेरी चिट्ठी
In English: The unlettered soil of this village cannot read your letter.
When to send it: Anand Bakshi at his best: it means come in person, and it says it without once asking. Devastating for a family member who only ever calls.
Send this line with flowers 🤍Maana tere hain kuch sapne
par hum to hain tere apne
माना तेरे हैं कुछ सपने
पर हम तो हैं तेरे अपने
In English: Granted, you have your dreams. But we are still your own.
When to send it: Concedes the argument before making it, so it never sounds like guilt. For someone who left for good reasons and has been gone too long.
Send this line with flowers 🤍Come home, traveller. Your country is calling you. For anyone who moved away: a sibling abroad, a child in another city, a friend who has not visited in years. Homesickness rather than romance.
