Samandar Lyrics English Translation by Emiway Bantai
The poet highlights his struggles, ‘No one supported me, they only found faults.’ He talks about betrayal, hard work, and the loneliness of success. The scent of ‘Oud’ becomes a metaphor for his newfound identity and the recognition he commands.
Samandar View Sapna Poora Kar DiyaI’ve fulfilled the dream of having a sea view.
Apna Kaun Saala Apna Toh Mukar GayaWho’s truly mine? Even my own people have turned their backs.
Shakal Small Se Vip Karte CallFrom being a small face to making VIP calls,
Dubai Baitha Dekh Kaun Tere Bhai Ne Sab Kar Diyalook at everything your brother has done while sitting in Dubai.
Padh Liya Khud Ko Jaana Kaun Hoon MainI’ve understood myself and learned who I truly am.
Umeed Ki Aawaaz Se Mashoor Hoon MainI’m famous as the voice of hope.
Koi Saath Nahin Diya Bas Nikale GaltiyanNo one supported me, they only found faults,
Tabhi Industry Se Door Hoon Mainso that’s why I’m distant from the industry.
Dekhi Humne Gareebi Khud Ke Hum QareebiI’ve seen poverty, so now I only keep myself close.
Bhai Bhai Karke Dhai Deke Nikle FarebiThey called me ‘brother’ while cheating me; they turned out to be frauds.
Bye Bye Karke Fly Karke Nikle Arabic Ocean Ke Upar SeSaying goodbye and flying over the Arabian Sea,
Oud Humse Mehaktithe scent of ‘Oud’ (a traditional Arabian fragrance) flows from me.
Jo Mujhse Jalta Woh Bhi Hi Bolta HaiEven those who are jealous of me say ‘hi’.
Beta Dubai Ka Sheikh Abhi Bhai Bolta HaiSon, even the Sheikhs of Dubai call me ‘brother’ now.
Manager Phone Pe Bas Hello Bolta HaiMy manager just says ‘hello’ on the phone.
Agar Deal Teri Weak Toh Phir Bye Bolta HaiIf your deal is weak, then he says ‘goodbye’.
Samandar View Sapna Poora Kar DiyaI’ve fulfilled the dream of having a sea view.
Apna Kaun Saala Apna Toh Mukar GayaWho’s truly mine? Even my own people have turned their backs.
Shakal Small Se Vip Karte CallFrom being a small face to making VIP calls,
Dubai Baitha Dekh Kaun Tere Bhai Ne Sab Kar Diyalook at everything your brother has done while sitting in Dubai.
Padh Liya Khud Ko Jaana Kaun Hoon MainI’ve understood myself and learned who I truly am.
Umeed Ki Aawaaz Se Mashoor Hoon MainI’m famous as the voice of hope.
Koi Saath Nahin Diya Bas Nikale GaltiyanNo one supported me, they only found faults,
Tabhi Industry Se Door Hoon Mainso that’s why I’m distant from the industry.
Duniya Ne Ye Sikha DiyaThe world has taught me this.
Bure Waqt Pe De Gaaliyan, Kaamyabi Pe TaaliyanThey curse you during bad times, but clap for your success.
Tabhi Humne Kamaa LiyaThat’s how I’ve earned it all.
Farak Nahin Pasand Kare Ya NahinIt doesn’t matter if they like me or not.
Haan Mujhe Kisne Kya DiyaReally, what has anyone ever given me?
Khud Mehnat Kiya Sapna Poora KiyaI worked hard myself and fulfilled my dream.
Karoon Dua Uske Liye Bhi Jo Bura KiyaI pray even for those who did me wrong.
Mera Present Mera Tohfa Beta Past Ko Main Bhula DiyaMy present is my gift, son, I’ve forgotten the past.
Fast The Alfaaz, Sirf Alfaaz Se Sab Dugna KiyaMy words were fast, and I’ve doubled everything just with my lyrics.
Honge Kuch Raat Khud Se Baat Karke Rona HogaThere’ll be nights where you’ll have to talk to yourself and cry.
Kaafi Hai Haath Jinka Saath Tujhe Khona HogaThere are many hands whose support you’ll have to lose.
Khuli Aankhon Mein Apna Khwaab Leke Sona HogaYou’ll have to sleep with your dreams in your open eyes.
Phir Tu Bolega Sab Kuch Aane De Jo Hona HogaThen you’ll say, ‘Let it all come, whatever is meant to happen will happen.’
Kaise Khelega Tu Vishwaas Wala Chehra DhokhaHow will you play when betrayal wears the face of trust?
Chalna Aasaan Nahin In Raaston Pe Dard HogaIt’s not easy to walk these paths, there’ll be pain.
Phal Jo Milega Kismat Ka Nahin Hoga Mehnat HogaThe reward you get won’t be from luck, it’ll be from hard work.
Tabhi Sab Paar Karke Baitha Idhar Maine DekhaThat’s why I’ve crossed it all and I’m sitting here, I’ve seen it all.
Samandar View Sapna Poora Kar DiyaI’ve fulfilled the dream of having a sea view.
Apna Kaun Saala Apna Toh Mukar GayaWho’s truly mine? Even my own people have turned their backs.
Shakal Small Se Vip Karte CallFrom being a small face to making VIP calls,
Dubai Baitha Dekh Kaun Tere Bhai Ne Sab Kar Diyalook at everything your brother has done while sitting in Dubai.
Padh Liya Khud Ko Jaana Kaun Hoon MainI’ve understood myself and learned who I truly am.
Umeed Ki Aawaaz Se Mashoor Hoon MainI’m famous as the voice of hope.
Koi Saath Nahin Diya Bas Nikale GaltiyanNo one supported me, they only found faults,
Tabhi Industry Se Door Hoon Mainso that’s why I’m distant from the industry.
