Dhaagena Tinak Dhin
Akasa Singh | Sachet Tandon • From “Metro…In Dino”
The verses expand on this character with specific labels. He is called a “spinning top” and compared to “wet soap” that slipped through one’s hands. These descriptions create a consistent image of someone impossible to hold onto, who boasts and moves on without commitment.
Oh Mast Pawan SaLike a wild gust of wind
Kati Patang SaaLike a kite with its string cut
Chaudayi Se Yaar GayaMy lover swaggered away with pride
Bajarbattu Bada NikhattuThat aimless wanderer, so utterly useless
Mujhe Toh Yeh Maar GayaHe’s been the death of me
Waadein Bhula KeForgetting all his promises
Yaadein Bhula KeForgetting all the memories
Josh Mein Hosh PighlaaHis senses melted away in the heat of the moment
Suni Si Dhoon SaLike a lonely, forgotten tune
Geele Saabon SaaLike a wet bar of soap
Hathon Se Hai Jo FislaHe’s the one who slipped right through my hands
Fisla Fisla Phir Se Phir YehHe slipped away, again and again he slipped
Fisla Fisla Phir YehAgain he slipped away
Fisli Fisli Meri RaateinMy nights have slipped away
Fisley Se Ab Mere DinAnd now my days are slipping by
The song maintains an energetic tone, focusing on the chase rather than on sadness. It concludes that the lover’s heart is a “master of its own will” and simply cannot follow a straight path. This results in a vibrant complaint about a person who is both frustrating and charmingly free.
