Chhod aaye ham woh galiya
छोड आए हम वो गलियां
we left those streets
Jaha tere pairo ke kawal gira karte the
जहां तेरे जोड़े के कवल गिरा करते थे
where only your couple used to fall
Hanse toh do gaalo me bhanvar pada karte the
हंस तो दो गालो में भंवर पड़ा करते थे
The swan used to swirl in two cheeks
Teree kamar ke bal pe nadee muda karte thee
तेरी कमर के बाल पे नदी मुड़ा करते थे
River used to turn on the hair of your waist
Hansee teree sun sunke phasal paka karatee thee
हांसी तेरी सुनके चरण पक्का कराते थे
Hansi used to make your feet firm by listening to you
Chhod aaye ham woh galiya........
छोड आए हम वो गलियां.........
We left those lanes.........
O jahan teree edi se dhup uda karatee thee
ओ जहान तेरी एडी से धूप उड़ कराती थी
O Jahan used to make sunshine fly from your heels
Suna hai uss chaukhat pe abb sham raha karatee hai
सुना है उस चौखट पे अब शाम रहा करता है
I have heard that the evening now stays on that doorway
Lato se ulajhee lipatee ek rat hua karatee thee
लतो से उलटी लिपटी एक चूहा हुआ कराती थी
used to make a mouse wrapped upside down
Kabhee kabhee takiya pe woh bhee mila karatee thee
कभी कभी तकिया पे वो भी मिला कराती थे
Sometimes she used to get them mixed on the pillow too.
Chhod aaye ham woh galiya........
छोड आए हम वो गलियां.........
We left those lanes.........
Dil dard ka tukda hai patthar kee dalee see hai
दिल दर्द का टुकड़ा है पत्थर की डाली देखें है
Heart is a piece of pain, see the branch of stone
Ek andha kuan hai ya ak band galee see hai
एक अंधा कुआं है या एक बंद गली देखें है
is a blind well or see a closed alley
Ek chhota sa lamha hai jo khatm nahee hota
एक छोटा सा लम्हा है जो खतम नहीं होता
there's a little moment that never ends
Mai lakh jalata hu (yeh bhasm nahee hota -2)
माई लाख जलाता हूं (ये भस्म नहीं होता-2)
I burn my lac (it is not consumed)
Chhod aaye ham woh galiya........
छोड आए हम वो गलियां.........
We left those lanes.........

About the movie
Summary
Following the assassination of Mrs. Indira Gandhi, the Prime Minister of India, at the hands of her Sikh bodyguards, a wave of violence broke out against innocent Sikhs and their families. Pressure was also brought on the police to bring the assassins and their allies to justice. The police, with their limited resources, and the lack of any witnesses, brutally brought in innocent Sikh men and women, and aggressively interrogated them with third degree methods. This created a wave of sympathy for the extremists, and more people started joining them to revolt against an oppressive regime. This story is of one such family, consisting of Veerandra (Tabu), her brother Jaswant Singh or Jassi (Raj Zutshi), and her mom. One day Inspector Vohra (Kanwaljeet) comes to their house with a police escort to find out the whereabouts of Jimmy or Jaimal (Jasjit Shergill). Jassi playfully introduces the police party to his pet dog Jimmy, and is taken away for questioning. He returns several days later, bleeding and badly wounded. Veerandra’s boyfriend Kripal Singh or Pali (Chandrachur Singh) vows to avenge Jassi’s beating and joins up with Commander (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) and Sanataan (Om Puri), both hardcore extremists.
