Armaan Malik brings a somber tone to ‘Waqt Ka Jungle’ from the film Dobaaraa. Composer Gaurav Chatterji provides a minimalist backdrop for this track. Lyricist Hussain Haidry crafts the voice of a wanderer, also starring Taapsee Pannu.
Waqt Ka Jungle
Armaan Malik • From “Dobaaraa”
Waqt Ka Jungle Lyrics Translation – Dobaaraa Soundtrack
Haidry describes a life spent wandering in circles. The singer encounters strangers in every street. The lyrics translate the feeling of being lost in a forest of time.
Waqt Ke Jangal Mein Khoya Hai Ik BanjaaraA wanderer ‘banjaara’ is lost in the forest of time.
Ghoome Galiyon Mein Gol Gol ZindagiLife’s wandering in circles through the streets.
Mile Jo Bhi Lage Zara Zara AjnabiEveryone he meets feels like a total stranger.
Aur Nazarein Dhoondhe Raah Dikhaane Waala SitaaraHis eyes search for a star to show him the way.
Waqt Ke Jangal Mein Khoya Hai Ik BanjaaraA wanderer ‘banjaara’ is lost in the forest of time.
Kadam Kadam Yeh Dam DamStep by step, with every breath,
Sawaalon Mein Khoya Chala Jaaye Haihe keeps getting lost in a web of questions.
Kadam Kadam Yeh Dam Ba DamStep by step, moment by moment,
Andheron Mein Dooba Chala Jaaye Haihe keeps sinking deeper into the darkness.
Sawaalon Mein Khoya Andheron Mein DoobaLost in questions and drowned in the dark,
Chala Jaaye Hai Chala Jaaye Haihe just keeps on going, he just keeps on going.
Phire Tanha Musaafiron Sa GamzadaHe wanders grief-stricken like a lonely traveler ‘musaafir’,
Suni Raat Bhar Aahaton Ki Yeh Sadahearing the sound of footsteps all through the night.
Aur Raat Kahe Subah Na Aayegi DobaaraAnd the night says that morning won’t ever come again.
Waqt Ke Jangal Mein Khoya Hai Ik BanjaaraA wanderer ‘banjaara’ is lost in the forest of time.
