Lyrics of Daakiya Daak Laya - डाकिया डाक लाया

dakiya dak laya, dakiya dak laya
dakiya dak laya, dak laya
dakiya dak laya, dak laya
khushi ka payam kahi kahi dardanak laya
dakiya dak laya, dak laya
dakiya dak laya, dakiya dak laya
khushi ka payam kahi kahi dardanak laya
dakiya dak laya, dak laya
dakiya dak laya, dakiya dak laya

indar ke bhatije ki sali ki sagai hai
o ati puranamasi ko qarar pai hai
mama aapko lene aate magar majburi hai
bachcho samet aana apka zaruri hai
dada to are re re re dada to guzar gae dadi bimar hai
nana ka bhi terahava aate somavar hai
chhote ko pyar dena bado ko namaskar
meri majburi samajho karad ko tar
shadi ka sadesa tera hai somanath laya
dakiya dak laya, dak laya
dakiya dak laya, dakiya dak laya

ai dakiya babu, kya hai ri
chhh mahina hoi gava khat nahi likhi
khat nahi likhi, bol kya likhun
bas jaldi se ane ka likh de
birha me kaise-kaise kato ratiyan
birha me kaise-kaise kato ratiyan
savan sunae bairi bhigi-bhigi batiyan
agni ki bundo me jale jale bavariya
o naukariya chhod ke tu aa jana sanvariya
aaja re sanvariya aaja aaya baisakh aaya
dakiya dak laya, dak laya
dakiya dak laya, dakiya dak laya
dak laya, dak laya


lyrics of song Daakiya Daak Laya

Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Daakiya Daak Laya
The postman brings the mail, the postman brings the mail,
The postman brings the mail, mail he brings.
The postman brings the mail, mail he brings.
Tidings of joy, and news that stings,
The postman brings the mail, mail he brings.
The postman brings the mail, the postman brings the mail.
Tidings of joy, and news that stings,
The postman brings the mail, mail he brings.
The postman brings the mail, the postman brings the mail.

The uncle's nephew's sister-in-law, betrothed,
A full moon's promise, a life bestowed.
Uncle wished to fetch you, but duty's chain,
With the children, your presence must remain.
Grandfather, alas, has passed away, grandmother ill,
The thirteenth day of Nana comes with the chill.
Love for the young, respect for the old,
Understand my plight, the card unfolds.
The wedding message, Somnath brings true,
The postman brings the mail, mail he brings.
The postman brings the mail, the postman brings the mail.

Oh postman, tell me, what does this say?
Six months have passed, no letter my way!
No letters you write, what words can I send?
Just write that you'll come, my beloved friend.
How do I spend these nights of despair?
How do I spend these nights, a heavy snare?
The rainy season speaks, the words of the foe,
In burning tears, a madwoman's woe.
Leave your employment, my love, come to me,
Come, my beloved, come, and see,
the season of spring.
The postman brings the mail, mail he brings.
The postman brings the mail, the postman brings the mail,
mail he brings, mail he brings.

Mise en scene. I love everything, from the reading out of the letter to the thumb impression. Captures a village community perfectly. And Rajesh Khanna, simply superb.

This song shows how Gujzar Saheb sees the common activities differently.
Fantastic composition, music, lyrics. This song actually gives the aroma of
a village.

different type of song,how many stories in between the song,only kishoreda
could sing this type of song.thanks for posting

@debu936 Are you retarded? Go ask Manna Dey who is the most beautiful
singer ever...and he'll explain to you who and why. C.H. Atma is annoying
.. Shailendra Singh was too simple... K.L. Sehgal was good but also had a
really nasal voice. Kishore Kumar was the only one who beautified the songs
close to Mohammed Rafi Sahab. Mohammed Rafi is the Michael Jordan of Indian
Music!

Zahed Hossain on Monday, July 04, 2011
@lolhahah21 you are wrong if rafi was the greatest how come he was subdued
by kishore from 1969 onwards.. there were hardly couple of hits by rafi
till his death 1980..read kishore kumar page in wikipedia..
