Mumbhai Lyrics Translation (from “Tu Yaa Main”)
2Sharc writes about ‘navigating the paths of black-and-yellow taxis and rickshaws’. The poet describes having breakfast on the train. This captures the daily life of Mumbhai.
Bambai ki galiyon mein kahaani puraani haiThe streets of Bombay hold an ancient story,
Aatank ka paigham aur mohalle mein suhaani haicarrying a message of terror while the neighborhood still feels pleasant.
Chhoti si umar mein lala bahut tensionAt such a young age, brother, there’s so much tension.
Baap apna bewada khaata maa ka pensionOur father is a drunkard who lives off our mother’s pension.
Jaggu bhi bole bidu maan jaEven Jaggu says, ‘Listen to me, brother.’
Kurla ke Jai Veeru phooke g#njaThe ‘Jai and Veeru’ of Kurla are smoking ‘w##d’.
Kaali peeli taxi aur rickshaw ka raastaNavigating the paths of black-and-yellow taxis and rickshaws,
Andheri se Churchgatefrom Andheri to Churchgate.
Train mein naashtaHaving our breakfast on the train.
Yeh hai Bambai yeh hai BambaiThis is Bombay, this is Bombay.
Nahi bhai yeh hai MumbhaiNo brother, this is ‘Mumbhai’.
Yeh hai Bambai yeh hai BambaiThis is Bombay, this is Bombay.
Nahi bhai are nahi bhaiNo brother, oh no brother.
I’m not a rapper broI’m not a rapper, bro.
But mera rap bhaariBut my rap goes incredibly hard.
Bambai mein seekhega tu duniyadaariIn Bombay, you’ll learn the harsh ways of the world.
Chhoti gaadi bade dilSmall cars but big hearts,
Khaali sapne bade billempty dreams but heavy bills.
Sookhe n#she se hi tune saari raat guzaariYou spent the entire night chasing dry ‘h#ghs’.
Paise ki kaisi kami jab hum hain tere saath chhoteWhy worry about money when we’re with you, little bro?
Aisi ki tesi teri karna thoda jugaad chhoteTo hell with it all, just hustle a little, little bro.
Raat gayi so baat gayi item teri fir bhaag gayiThe night has passed and so has the issue, your girl ran away again.
Nahi aayi tohIf she doesn’t come back,
Uda dethen just let it go.
Yeh hai Bambai yeh hai BambaiThis is Bombay, this is Bombay.
Nahi bhai yeh hai MumbhaiNo brother, this is ‘Mumbhai’.
Yeh hai Bambai yeh hai BambaiThis is Bombay, this is Bombay.
Nahi bhai are nahi bhaiNo brother, oh no brother.
Aire ghaire baatein kare sab do I look this freakyRandom people keep talking, do I look this freaky?
Bana scene thode green thoda dreamyCreate a scene, make it a little green and a little dreamy.
Plan A se pehle Plan B aur Plan CBefore Plan A, we already have a Plan B and a Plan C.
Naam se pehle number deta damn he’s so creepyHe gives his number before his name, damn he’s so creepy.
Jaggu bhi bole bidu maan jaEven Jaggu says, ‘Listen to me, brother.’
Kurla ke Veeru phooke g#njaThe ‘Veeru’ of Kurla is smoking ‘w##d’.
Kaali peeli taxi aur rickshaw ka raastaNavigating the paths of black-and-yellow taxis and rickshaws,
Dharavi ki item Worli ka pastawith a girl from Dharavi and a plate of pasta from Worli.
Yeh hai Bambai yeh hai BambaiThis is Bombay, this is Bombay.
Nahi bhai yeh hai MumbhaiNo brother, this is ‘Mumbhai’.
Yeh hai Bambai yeh hai BambaiThis is Bombay, this is Bombay.
Nahi bhai are nahi bhaiNo brother, oh no brother.
I’m not aI’m not a,
I’m not a rapper broI’m not a rapper, bro.
