Badtameez Dil Maane Na – Song Lyrics | Meaning

Badtameezi ek bimari hai
Madness is an illness…
Ek aisi bimari jo dheere dheere waqt ke saath
Budhaape mein badal jaati hai
An illness that old age makes you forget.
Main kehta hoon jab tak budhaapa nahi aata
But screw that… we won’t be old for a while…
Thodi badtameezi hi kar lete hai
So let’s be MAD tonight!

Paan main pudeena dekha
I’ve seen mint in the betel leaf.
Naak ka nageena dekha
I’ve seen the gem on your nose ring.
Chikni chameli dekhi
I’ve seen a beautiful girl;
Chikna kameena dekha
and a handsome rascal.
Chaand ne cheater hoke cheat kiya toh
The moon became a cheater and cheated,
Saare taare bole gilli gilli akhaa
so all the stars said, gili gigi akkha.

Pa para para!

Meri baat, teri baat, Zyada baatein boori baat
My words, your words, talking so much is a bad habit.
Thaali mein katora leke, Aaloo bhat, Muri bhat
Take a bowl on the plate with potato-rice and fried rice-bread.
Mere peeche kisi ne repeat kiya toh
If anyone repeats after me,
Saala maine tere muh pe maara mukka
I’ll punch that rascal in the face.

Ispe bhoot koi chadha hai, theharna jaane naa
Some spirit has taken over it and doesn’t know how to stop
Ab toh kya buraa kyaa bhalaa hai, Fark pehchaane naa
Now it can’t even tell the difference between right and wrong.
Zidd pakad ke khadaa hai kambakht, Chhodna jaane naa
It’s stuck to stubbornness and doesn’t let go.

Badtameez dil, batameez dil, batameez dil
This mannerless heart
Maane na, maane na
Doesn’t heed, Doesn’t heed.

Yeh jo haal hai, sawaal hai, kamaal hai
This condition is questionable as it’s fantastic.
Jaane na jaane na
Doesn’t know, Doesn’t know.
Badtameez dil, battameez dil badtameez dil
This mannerless heart
Maane naa..
Doesn’t heed.

Hawa mein Havana dekha
I’ve seen Havana from the air.
Dhimka falaana dekha
I’ve seen this and that
Seeng ka Singhara khaake
After eating the water caltrop of a lion,
Sher ka ghuraana dekha
I’ve seen roaring of the lion
Poori duniya ka gol gol chakkar leke
I’ve roamed around the world.
Maine duniya ko maara dhakka
And then I pushed the world back.

Hey Bollywood Hollywood very very jolly good
Bollywood or Hollywood, both are very jolly-good.
Raayi ke pahaad par teen futa liliput
On the mountain of black mustard seeds, I’ve seen a 3 footed Liliputian.
Mere peeche kisi ne repeat kiya toh
If anyone repeats after me.
Saala maine tere muh pe maara mukka
I’ll punch that rascal in the face.

Ayaashi ke one way se khudko, Modna jaane naa
It doesn’t know how to turn away from the one-way road of carefree living.
Kambal bewajah sharam ka, Odhna jaane naa
Without any reason, it doesn’t know how to put a blanket of shame on itself.
Zidd pakad ke khadha hai kambakht, Chodhna jaane na,
It’s stuck to stubbornness and doesn’t let go.

Badtameez dil, batameez dil, batamiz dil
This mannerless heart
Maane na, maane na
Doesn’t heed, Doesn’t heed.

Aaj saare, chaand taare, Bann gaye hai disco lights,
Today all the stars and the moon have become disco lights.
Jal ke, bujha ke humko bula ke
After getting burnt and extinguished, after calling us,
Keh rahe hai, Party all night,
they’re saying to party all night.
Naata betuki dillagi se, todna jaane na
It doesn’t know how to break the relationship with useless love.
Aane wale kal ki fikar se, judna jaane na
It doesn’t know how to attach itself with the worries of tomorrow.
Zidd pakad ke khada hai kambakht, Chodhna jaane na,
It’s stuck to stubbornness and doesn’t let go.

Badtameez dil, batameez dil, batamiz dil
This bad-mannered heart.
Maane na, maane na
Doesn’t heed, Doesn’t heed

Yeh jo haal hai, sawaal hai, kamaal hai
This condition is questionable as it’s fantastic.
Jaane na jaane na
Doesn’t know, Doesn’t know.
Badtameez dil, battameez dil badtameez dil
This bad-mannered heart.
Maane naa,
Doesn’t heed.
