Lyrics of Thaali Hai Khaali Na Heer Na Hoor - थाली हैं खाली ना हीर ना हूर
lag gaya to teer nahi to tukka
i cant stay, i cant stay, i cant stay bhukka
lag gaya to teer nahi to tukka
i cant stay, i cant stay, i cant stay bhukka
na heer, na hoor, na mehange angoor
na dunlop ka gadda, na tan mange tandoor
thaali hai khaali jo chahe paros do
hey thaali hai khaali jo chahe paros do
chahe baasi roti ho namak thoda
namak thoda, namak thoda thoons do
hey auro ka jootha, hogi party bhikmango ki
kya hogi demand bhaiya hey aise bhooke nango ki
hey kuchh bhi chalega bas tan ko chakhna chahiye
man ko thag lenge khane swaad itna chahiye
man ko thag lenge khane swaad itna chahiye
hey patli ho daal chahe thoda chhonk jhonk do
little, thoda
hey patli ho daal chahe thoda chhonk jhonk do
chahe baasi roti ho namak thoda
namak thoda, namak thoda thoons do
apna to funda simple hai yaar
tuchh zaroorat, uchh vichar
five star ka khana apni aukaat nahi
khaali haddi, bina boti banti baat nahi
apna ajenda single hai yaar
jahan dikhe dana hath do pasaar
khaali pet bhaiya, katati ab raat nahi
ubla chawal, sookhi bhindi, thodi si khatti dahi
hey sath jo achaar ho phir kyun afsos ho hey hey
hey sath jo achaar ho phir kyun afsos ho
chahe baasi roti ho namak thoda
one more time, namak thoda thoons do
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Thaali Hai Khaali Na Heer Na Hoor
Aimed arrow, or a blind shot astray,
I cannot stay, I cannot stay, I starve this day.
Aimed arrow, or a blind shot astray,
I cannot stay, I cannot stay, I starve this day.
No celestial nymphs, no jewels to behold,
No grapes of luxury, stories yet untold.
No padded comfort, no fire's warm embrace,
Empty plates await, for any food to grace.
Empty plates await, for any food to grace.
Stale bread offered, a pinch of salt to embrace,
Salt to fill the void, in this hungry space.
Leftovers of others, a beggar's feast is near,
What demands can rise, from hunger's desperate tear?
Anything will do, as long as body's filled,
Deceiving the mind, with flavors now instilled.
Deceiving the mind, with flavors now instilled.
Thin lentil soup, a little spice to impart,
Little, a little, a little art.
Stale bread offered, a pinch of salt to impart,
Salt to fill the void, in this hungry heart.
My philosophy, simple and clear,
Lowly needs, yet lofty thoughts to hold dear.
Five-star dining, beyond my reach it seems,
Empty bones alone, fulfill life’s dreams.
My agenda simple, my purpose to find,
Wherever sustenance, I shall open my mind.
Empty stomachs, the night now will not cease,
Boiled rice and okra, yogurt bringing peace.
If pickles are there, then why should I cry,
If pickles are there, then why should I cry.
Stale bread offered, a pinch of salt to impart,
One more time, salt to fill the hungry heart.
