The poet describes the chaos and resilience of his community, mentioning everything from cricket games to street hustles. ‘If I fail an exam, I’ve got to study harder,’ he says, underlining his relentless drive. Naezy’s words showcase his determination to rise above challenges and stay true to himself.
Paida Hua Pala Bada Hateli Ilaake MeinI was born and raised in a tough neighborhood,
Yahan Sabko Karni Thi Pateli Har Naake Pewhere everyone wanted to ‘act tough’ on every street corner.
Sab Se Hatkar Sab Se Qattar Munh Khola Toh Sar Par PattharI’m different and the most hardcore, if I speak out, stones might fly at my head.
Sabse Khatarnak B#mbay SattarThe most dangerous place is B#mbay 70.
Log Yahan Ke Alag Alag Shauk PaaleThe people here have all sorts of habits.
Koi Laale Cricket Mein Khoob Shot MaareSome guys are busy hitting ‘big shots’ in cricket.
Koi Saale Fukat Mein Hi Note KamaaleOthers try to make money for free, without any real work.
Koi Kaale Dhandhe Waale Koi Paale Dhandhe KaaleSome are involved in ‘illegal businesses’, while others keep their dealings in the dark.
Koi Jeena Daan Pe Jiyen Koi Seena Taan Ke JiyenSome live on charity, while others live with their chests held high.
Koi Pehchan Se Jiyen Koi Jeena Shaan Se JiyenSome live off their connections, and some live with true style.
Koi Sach Ko Jaan Ke Bhi Jhoothi Baatein Maan Ke JiyenSome know the truth but still choose to live by lies.
Lekin Aise Bande Chuninda Hai Jo Zinda HaiBut there are only a chosen few who are truly alive,
Apne Aatmasamman Ke Liyeliving for their own self-respect.
Aur Main Unmein Se EkAnd I’m one of those people.
Mujhe Dekh Mera Naam Naved SheikhLook at me, my name is Naved Sheikh.
Na Lagaam Na Koi BrakeI’ve got no harness and no brakes.
Sachchi Baatein Niyat NekI speak the truth with honest intentions.
Kaala Chashma Hoodie Peeche Bag Neeche ScootyBlack sunglasses, a hoodie, a bag on my back, and a ‘scooter’ under me.
Baantu Hari Jadi BootiI’m handing out some ‘green h#rbs’.
Mujhe Dekh Kar Par Kyun Jala Tu Kyun BhalaBut why are you so jealous when you see me?
Le Aaj Meri Dio Tu Chala Jaa Khush RahHere, take my ‘Dio scooter’ for a ride today and just be happy.
Tujhe Kya Pata Meri Kya KalaWhat do you know about my art?
Teri Kya Salah Main LunWhy would I ever take your advice?
Mujhe Hai Pata Teri Har SalahI already know every piece of advice you’ve got.
Tujhe Yeh Salah Main DunLet me give you this piece of advice instead,
Door Rakh Mashwarekeep your suggestions to yourself.
Mujhe Jo Karna Hai Woh Karna HaiI’m going to do exactly what I want to do.
