What the Lyrics Of These Bollywood Songs Meant?

!!!!

We've all heartily sung this song, but how many of us really know what it means? Well, it means: Be, and it is. We recently told you about what these popular Bollywood songs meant.

The Indian music scene has seen some drastic changes in the past decade. While fusion and remixed songs have been here for a long time now, lyricists now like to experiment with words by introducing new languages in the song. Sometimes, its a couple of lines from one of our regional languages like Tamil or Malayalam, and other times, it's a stanza in Italian or French. And we happily dance our hearts out on these songs even without knowing the right pronunciation or their meaning.

We tried translating Bollywood songs with lyrics which are in languages other than Hindi. Here they are:

Kasto mazza hai railaima
It's fun to be in a train

Ramailo ukali oraali       
When it goes up and down through the hills

Kasto mazza hai railaima       
It's fun to be in a train

Ramailo ukali oraali       
When it goes up and down through the hills

“Ramaiya vastavaiya” mean?

It turns out Ramaiya vastavaiya is Telegu for respectfully asking, “Ram, won’t you come?” Legend has it that music composer Shankar Singh Raghuvanshi, who grew up in Hyderabad where Telugu is a dominant language, had been demonstrating his composition to director Raj Kapoor using placeholder Telugu lyrics. When Raj Kapoor heard the tune, he loved it so much, he wanted the Telugu title lyrics to be included in the final version! And perhaps the convenient symbolism did not escape Raj Kapoor–like Lord Ram returning at last to his kingdom, Raju finally comes back to the people who love him and his true home.
