Lyrics

Aye mere pyare watan, aye mere bichhade chaman tujhpe dil kubran

ऐ मेरे प्यारे वतन, ऐ मेरे बिछड़े चमन तुझपे दिल कुबरान

O my dear homeland, O my lost soul

Too hee meree aaraju, too hee meree aabaru, too hee meree jan

बहुत ही मेरे आराजू, बहुत ही मेरे आबरू, भी ही मेरे जाने

Very much my love

Tere daman se jo aaye, unn hawao ko salam

तेरे दमन से जो आए, उन हवा को सलाम

Salute to those winds that came from your suppression

Chum lu mai uss juban ko jis pe aaye teraa nam

चुम लू मैं उस जुबान को जिस पे आया तेरा नाम

I kiss the tongue on which your name came

Sabse pyaree subah teree, sab se rangee teree sham

सबसे प्यारी सुबह तेरी, सब से रंगी तेरी शाम

The sweetest morning is yours, the most colorful your evening

Man kaa dil banake kabhee sine se lag jata hain too

मन का दिल बनाके कभी सिने से लग जाता है भी

By making the heart of the mind, sometimes it gets attached to the cinema.

Aur kabhee nanhee see betee ban ke yaad aata hain too

और कभी नन्हे देखें बेटी बन के याद आता है भी

And sometimes I remember being a little girl

Jitana yad aata hain too, utana tadapata hain too

जीता याद आता है भी, उतना तड़पता है भी

Remembered to live, it suffers as much

Chhod kar teree jamin ko dur aa pahuche hain ham

छोड कर तेरी जमीं को दूर आ पाहुचे हैं हम

Leaving your land, we have come away

Fir bhee hain yahee hain tamanna tere jarro kee kasam

फिर भी हैं यही हैं तमन्ना तेरे जरा की कसम

Still, this is your wish

Ham jahan paida huye, uss jagah hee nikale yeh dam

हम जहां पाया हुआ, उस जगह ही निकले ये दाम

These prices came out at the same place where we found it

About the movie

Summary

Rahmat (Chhabi Biswas),a middle-aged fruit seller from Afghanistan, comes to Calcutta to hawk his merchandise and befriends a small Bengali girl called Mini (Oindrila Tagore aka Tinku Tagore) who reminds him of his own daughter back in Afghanistan. He puts up at a boarding house along with his countrymen. One day Rehmat receives news of his daughter’s illness through a letter from his country and he decides to leave for his country. Since he is short of money he decides to sell his goods on credit for increasing his business. Later, when he goes to collect on his money, one of his customers abuses him and in the fight that ensues Rehmat warns that he will not tolerate abuse and stabs the guy when he does not stop the abuse. In the court Rehmat’s lawyer tries to obfuscate the facts but in his characteristic and simple fashion Rehmat states the truth in a matter of fact way. The judge, pleased with Rehmat’s honesty, gives him 10 years rigorous imprisonment instead of the death sentence. On the day of his release he goes to meet Mini but discovers that she has grown up into a 14-year old girl and is about to get married. Mini does not recognize Rehmat, who realizes that his own daughter must have forgotten him too. Mini’s father gives Rehmat the money for travel out of Mini’s wedding budget to which Mini agrees; she also sends a gift for Rehmat’s daughter.
