Translation: Soniyo (Raaz - The Mystery Continues)

The sweet new track Soniyo is one of the best songs sung by Sonu Niigaam and Shreya Ghoshal. And I've loved it every time I listened to it. It's such a beautiful song, and Sonu has sung it on many occations, especially on the stage of Indian Idol on which he came as a mentor. The music to this song is given by Raju Singh, who has composed background scores of many TV shows and films. Sonu and Raju have been good friends for a while, and I really enjoyed this interview. (That's a must-watch interview if you liked the song). Here's the video of Sonu performing the song on stage:



Here are the lyrics of the song (my translation is at the bottom of the post):

Baby, come stand by my side
Come and be my guiding light
I’ll be what you want me to be
I’ll give all my love in whole of my life

Soniyo, o soniyo
Tumhe dekhta hu to sochta hu bas yahi
Tum jo mera saath do, saare gham bhulake
Jee lu muskuraake zindagi
Tu dede mera saath thaam le haath
Chahe jo bhi ho baat, tu bas de de mera saath
Tu dede mera saath thaam le haath
Chahe jo bhi ho baat, tu bas de de mera saath

I get this feeling now, I cannot wait no longer
I know your love will keep me happy
Will keep me stronger
I get this feeling now,
I cannot live without you
I know your love’s the only one so true

Raho me, tanha hu saath le chal yun
Sang tere safar poora karun
Kya kahu ae zindagi
Tu hai meri saans, rehna tu paas har ghadi
Tu dede mera saath thaam le haath
Chahe jo bhi ho baat,
Tu bas de de mera saath

Tujh ko jo, paaya toh hai yeh lagta kyu
Baho me bas teri mehfooz hoon
Tum bano, saaya mera, zindagi mein aao
Zindagi bitaao bas yahi
Tu dede mera saath thaam le haath
Chahe jo bhi ho baat
Tu bas de de mera saath
Tu bas de de mera saath


Translation:

Darling, O darling,
When I see you,
I just think that if you're with me,
I can live a true life forgetting all the sadness,
You, just be with me, put your hands in mine,
Anything may happen, but you should just be with me.

I am alone in my way,
Please take me with you,
so that I may complete the journey with you,
What can I say, my life?
You are my breathe, be always with me.

After getting you, why is there the feeling
that I am safe only in your arms,
You do become, my shadow,
Come into my life, and spend yours with me,
You, just be with me, put your hands in mine,
Anything may happen, but you should just be with me.
