DUNIYA MEIN HUM AAYE
Sung by Lata Mangeshkar
Music by Naushad Ali and lyrics by Shakeel Badayuni
From the 1957 movie, "Mother India"
Duniya Mein Hum Aaye Hain To Jeena Hi Padega...
If one has come into this world, one must live...
Duniya Mein Hum Aaye Hain To Jeena Hi Padega
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jeevan Hai Agar Zehar To Peena Hi Padega
If life is like poison, one sometimes has to drink the poison
Duniya Mein Hum Aaye Hain To Jeena Hi Padega
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jeevan Hai Agar Zehar To Peena Hi Padega
If life is like poison, one sometimes has to drink the poison.
Gir Gir Ke Museebat Mein Sambhalte Hi Rahenge
In tough times you fall, but one must get up and keep going
Jal Jaayen Magar Aag Pe Chalte Hi Rahenge
Even though one is burning, one must keep walking on the fire
Gir Gir Ke Museebat Mein Sambhalte Hi Rahenge
In tough times you fall, but one must get up and keep going
Jal Jaayen Magar Aag Pe Chalte Hi Rahenge
Even though one is burning, one must keep walking on the fire.
Gum Jisne Diye...
The one who gave us sadness...
Gum Jisne Diye Hain Wohi Gum Door Karega
The one who gave us sadness will be the one to take it away
Gum Jisne Diye Hain Wohi Gum Door Karega
The one who gave us sadness will be the one to take it away.
Duniya Mein Hum Aaye Hain To Jeena Hi Padega
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jeevan Hai Agar Zehar To Peena Hi Padega
If life is like poison, one sometimes has to drink the poison.
Aurat Hai Woh Aurat Jise Duniya Ki Sharam Hai
A woman that observes propriety is an exemplary woman
Sansaar Mein Bas Laaj Hi Naari Ka Dharam Hai
In this world, a woman keeps her integrity in adverse circumstances
Sansaar Mein Bas Laaj Hi Naari Ka Dharam Hai
In this world, a woman keeps her integrity in adverse circumstances.
Zinda hai jo...
The woman who lives...
Zinda hai jo izzat se vahi izzat se marega
The woman that lives with integrity and dies with the same is looked upon as being pure.
Zinda hai jo izzat se vahi izzat se marega
The woman that lives with integrity and dies with the same is looked upon as being pure.
Duniya Mein Hum Aaye Hain To Jeena Hi Padega
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jeevan Hai Agar Zehar To Peena Hi Padega
If life is like poison, one sometimes has to drink the poison.
Maalik Hai Tere Saath Na Darr Gum Se Tu Ae Dil
Oh my heart, don't be afraid, because God is with you
Mehnat Kare Insaan To Kya Kaam Hai Mushkil
If a person is hardworking, anything is possible
Maalik Hai Tere Saath Na Darr Gum Se Tu Ae Dil
Oh my heart, don't be afraid, because God is with you
Mehnat Kare Insaan To Kya Kaam Hai Mushkil
If a person is hardworking, anything is possible.
Jaisa Jo Kare...
As one sows...
Jaisa Jo Karega Yahan Waisa Hi Bharega
As one sows here, so one will reap
Jaisa Jo Karega Yahan Waisa Hi Bharega
As one sows here, so one will reap.
Duniya Mein Hum Aaye Hain To Jeena Hi Padega
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jeevan Hai Agar Zehar To Peena Hi Padega
If life is like poison, one sometimes has to drink the poison.

A Note From The Gull
I dedicate this song to our Prime Minister and to the Leader of the Opposition who have put their hands to the plough of leadership. I use plough in the singular because the fact is that they are tending the same field together. These are rough times but they must struggle side by side to find the best way to make it prosper.
Gir Gir Ke Museebat Mein Sambhalte Hi Rahenge
In tough times you fall, but one must get up and keep going
Jal Jaayen Magar Aag Pe Chalte Hi Rahenge
Even though one is burning, one must keep walking on the fire.
There is absolutely nothing sinister or ridiculous about this motion of no confidence having been filed. If this was the only way in which Mister Rowley felt he could have arranged an audience with our Prime Minister on behalf of those citizens who have unanswered questions, then we should be grateful to him. We must continue to ask ourselves questions about why such public dialogue is not a natural and regular occurrence.
I remain hopeful that in my lifetime I will witness the evolution of a more open, more participatory form of governance in this country. I listen to the voices of our people, the writers of letters and articles, the bloggers, the readers who comment online and I often find brilliance. If our government would only recognise and make use of that potential, we would be well on our way to a more just and sustainable society. Take as just one small example among thousands happening everyday of ordinary Trinbagonians voluntarily sharing ideas, opinions, critically examining policies, making solid recommendations, the comments by readers following the article, "‘Commercial’ onions harvested." in today's Express. Who listens to these minds? Which government will finally see the light and rise above all the rest to intelligently invite citizens to think along with their policy makers? Is there anyone else who also dreams of an intelligent society that encourages and incorporates and rewards such participation?
I look forward to the debate tomorrow and I hope that we will not be disappointed by the content of the contributions and the attitudes of the speakers. I trust that at its conclusion, this democracy will have advanced.
"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.
Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.
Mweh ka allay!
