DIDI TERA DEWAR DEEWANA

diidii tera dewar diiwaana (Elder) sister, your brother-in-law [lit.: the youngest brother of your husband] is insane!
haay raam kuDiyo.n ko Daale daana... O God, he tries to entice all the girls;
dha.ndha hai yeh uska puraana it's an old habit of his.
haay raam kuDiyo.n ko Daale daana... O God, he lures them like birds to grain
mai.n bolii ke laana tuu imlii ka daana I told him to bring a grain of tamarind
magar voh chhuaare le aaya diiwaana But he brought chuare, the crazy man!
mai.n bolii ke machle hai dil mera haay I told him I was longing for something in particular; oh,
voh kharbuuza laaya jo nii.mbuu ma.ngaa'e he brought me a sweet melon when I'd asked for a lemon!
pagala hai koii usko bataana Someone tell him he's crazy!
haay raam kuDiyo.n ko Daale daana O God, he tries to lure women like birds to grain.
mai.n bolii ke laana tuu miTTii pahaaDii I told him to bring mud from the mountains,
magar voh bataashe le aaya anaDii But that inept idiot brought sugar cake!
mai.n bolii thii laa de mujhe tuu khaTaa'ii I had told him to bring me something sour;
voh baazaar se leke aaya miTHaa'ii he came back from the bazaar with sweets!
mushkil hai yuu.n mujhko pha.nsaana It's difficult to win me over by acting like this
haay raam kuDiyo.n ko Daale daana O God, he tries to entice all the girls!
bhaabhii terii bahana ko maana Sister-in-law, heed your sister
haay raam kuDiyo.n ka hai zamaana Dear God, it's the women's turn to rule!
rabba mere mujhko bachaana My God, save me!
haay raam kuDiyo.n ka hai zamaana Dear God, it's the women's turn to rule!
hukm aap ka tha jo mai.n ne na maana It was your order that I didn't obey;
khataavaar huu.n mai.n na aaya nibhaana I am at fault for not having come to complete it.
sazaa jo bhii doge voh ma.nzuur hogii Whatever punishment you give will be acceptable;
ajii merii mushkil tabhii duur hogii then, at last, I'll leave my difficulties far behind
ba.nda hai yeh khud se begaana This slave is a stranger to himself
haay raam kuDiyo.n ka hai zamaana Dear God, it's the women's turn to rule!
