Lyrics of Saheli Ho Paheli Puchho O Shari Babu Paheli Bujho - सहेली हो पहेली पूछो ओ शहरी बाबु पहेली बूझो
saheli ho paheli puchho
o shahri babu paheli bhujo puchho puchho
rang safed lage re hathi dant sa
mit jaye pal bhar me jhuti bat sa
koi ata pata
bagiya me khilta nahi har waqt milta nahi
sar bhurate hi pade bade bado ne bola
kya samjhe nahi samjhe hat
ola barf ka gola ola ola barf ka gola
sachmuch nahi samjhe
aaye re wo sat samandar par se
chhue jaye hum sabko bade pyar se
achha aur chhote to jag hile
ho man me umang khile
aate jate kisi ne na dekha na toka
kya samjhe ab nahi samjhe chal hat
jhonka hawa ka jhonka kya kya
jhonka jhonka hawa ka jhonka
naiya ke jaise lage nadiya ke jaise bahe
wahi hume batlaye ab din hai ya raina
kya samjhe bilkul nahi samjhe chal hat
naina hamare naina ho naina hamare naina
rahti hai sathi ki tarha sath me
dikhti hai par aati nahi hath me
arey aisi bhi kya chij hai hai
had se wo badti nahi
sar par bhi chadti nahi
apne raste pe usko koi hata na paya
samjh me aaya chhaya chhaya ho
apni chhaya re chhaya chhay are apni chhaya
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Saheli Ho Paheli Puchho O Shari Babu Paheli Bujho
Sister, I pose a riddle,
Oh, my city friend, a riddle to be known, spoken, asked, again.
White it seems, like ivory bright,
Vanishes in a breath, a lie's slight.
No end, no beginning's trace,
In gardens blooms, nor music's grace.
Scratch your head, amongst the wise,
A simple thing, before your eyes.
What is it, do you not know?
A hailstone's fall, a frozen show.
Truly, do you not understand?
From seven seas, it finds its way,
And touches us, with gentle sway.
Big and small, the world does sway,
Joy blooms within, come what may.
Arriving, leaving, unseen, unheard,
What is it, do you not understand?
A gust of wind, a sudden breath.
A gust of wind, defying death.
Like a boat, on the river's flow,
It tells us now, if day or night we know.
What is it, do you not understand?
Our eyes, our very glance.
A companion true, at your side,
Seen, yet never in your hold to abide.
A thing so near, yet so far,
Never growing, beyond a bar.
Never climbing, to the height,
No one could make it take flight.
Do you understand? Yes, yes!
Our shadow, our own, it does possess.
