Garaj Uthal Baa (Wake Up) Lyrics
From album Vidroh
[Intro]
सुनताड़ऽ? -- (Are you listening?)
ई आवाज अब दबे वाला नइखे! -- (This voice will no longer be silenced!)
Hey!
Wake up!
Here we go!
[Verse 1]
जे दिन जेब में फूटी कौड़ी ना रहे, -- (On the days when I didn't have a single penny in my pocket,)
ओह दिन केहू साथ खड़ा ना रहे। -- (There was no one standing by my side.)
पीठ पीछे हँसे लोग, मुँह पर देवे सीख, -- (People laughed behind my back and lectured me to my face,)
हम चुपचाप आपन काम करत रहीं। -- (While I quietly kept doing my work.)
कतना बेर ठोकर खइनीं, गिनती ना बा, -- (I've stumbled so many times I've lost count,)
बाकिर रुकल हमरा आदत में ना बा। -- (But giving up has never been in my nature.)
काल्ह जे हमरा के कुछुओ ना बुझलस, -- (Those who thought I was worth nothing yesterday,)
आज ओकरे कान में आवाज गूँजत बा! -- (Today, my voice echoes in their very ears!)
[Pre-Chorus 1]
कब ले चुप रहीं, कब ले सहत रहीं? -- (How long will I stay silent, how long will I keep enduring this?)
आपन बात कहे से काहे डेराईं? -- (Why should I be afraid to speak my mind?)
अब जे बोलब, खुल के बोलब, -- (From now on, whatever I say, I'll say it openly,)
अपना दम पर आगे बढ़ब! -- (I'll move forward on my own strength!)
[Chorus]
गरज उठल बा! गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar! We've risen with a roar!)
हमनी के आवाज दूर-दूर ले जाई! -- (Our voices will carry far and wide!)
We rise! We roar!
We won't be silent anymore!
गरज उठल बा! गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar! We've risen with a roar!)
अब केहू हमनी के रोक ना पाई! -- (Now no one will be able to stop us!)
We rise! We roar!
We're stronger than before!
[Post-Chorus]
Hey! Hey!
सुनऽ, दुनिया! -- (Listen up, world!)
We rise! We roar!
गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar!)
[Verse 2]
घर से निकलनीं त लोग हँसत रहे, -- (When I stepped out of my home, people laughed at me,)
कहत रहे, “तोहरा से ई ना होई।” -- (They kept saying, "You can't do this.")
हर मोड़ पर नया सवाल खड़ा रहे, -- (At every turn, a new question stood in my way,)
हम सोचनीं, जवाब कामे से देब। -- (I decided to let my work be the answer.)
नींद कम भइल, दिन-रात एक कइनीं, -- (I slept less and worked tirelessly day and night,)
हार के डर से कबो मुँह ना मोड़नीं। -- (I never turned away out of fear of defeat.)
जे रस्ता बंद रहे, नया रस्ता खोजनीं, -- (Whenever a path was blocked, I found another way,)
आपन मेहनत से आपन जगह बनवनीं! -- (Through my own hard work, I carved out my place!)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
कतना बेर गिरनीं? -- (How many times did I fall?)
फेरु उठनीं! -- (I got back up again!)
कतना बेर हारनीं? -- (How many times did I lose?)
फेरु लड़नीं! -- (I fought again!)
अब ना चुप रहीं, अब ना डेराईं, -- (We will no longer stay silent, we will no longer be afraid,)
जवन सही बा, ऊ खुल के बताईं! -- (We will speak openly about what is right!)
[Chorus]
गरज उठल बा! गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar! We've risen with a roar!)
हमनी के आवाज दूर-दूर ले जाई! -- (Our voices will carry far and wide!)
We rise! We roar!
We won't be silent anymore!
गरज उठल बा! गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar! We've risen with a roar!)
अब केहू हमनी के रोक ना पाई! -- (Now no one will be able to stop us!)
We rise! We roar!
We're stronger than before!
[Bridge]
खाली हाथ निकलनीं, खाली मन ना रहे, -- (I set out empty-handed, but my heart was never empty,)
सपना छोट ना रहे, भले साधन कम रहे। -- (My dreams were never small, even though my resources were limited.)
लोगन के बात अब दिल पर ना लेब, -- (I will no longer take people's words to heart,)
मेहनत के बदला बहाना ना देब। -- (I will not make excuses instead of putting in the hard work.)
आज जवन बानीं, अपने दम पर बानीं, -- (What we are today, we've become through our own strength,)
अब आपन कहानी खुदे लिखब हमनीं! -- (From now on, we will write our own story!)
[Guitar Solo]
[Final Chorus]
गरज उठल बा! गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar! We've risen with a roar!)
हमनी के आवाज दूर-दूर ले जाई! -- (Our voices will carry far and wide!)
We rise! We roar!
We won't be silent anymore!
गरज उठल बा! गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar! We've risen with a roar!)
अब केहू हमनी के रोक ना पाई! -- (Now no one will be able to stop us!)
We rise! We roar!
We're stronger than before!
[Outro]
We rise!
We roar!
गरज उठल बा! -- (We've risen with a roar!)
We won't be silent anymore!
