Lyrics of Nagri Nagri Dwaare Dwaare Dhundhu Re Sanwariya - नगरी-नगरी द्वारे-द्वारे ढूँढू रे सांवरिया
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
piya-piya ratake mai to ho gayi re banvariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
bedardi balam ne mohe, phunka gam ki aag me
phunka gam ki aag me
biraha ki chingari bhar di, dukhiya ke suhaag me
dukhiya ke suhaag me
pal-pal manva roye chhalke naino ki gagariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
aai thi ankhiyo me lekar, sapae kya-kya pyar ke
sapae kya-kya pyar ke
jati hun do aansu lekar, aashayain sab haar ke
aashayain sab haar ke
duniyaa ke mele me lut gai jivan ki gathariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
darshan ke do pyase naina, jivan bhar na soyenge
jivan bhar na soyenge
bichhde saajan tumre kaaran, raato ko ham royenge
raato ko ham royenge
ab na jaane raama kaise bitegi umariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
piya-piya ratake mai to ho gayi re banvariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
piya-piya ratake mai to ho gayi re banvariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
bedardi balam ne mohe, phunka gam ki aag me
phunka gam ki aag me
biraha ki chingari bhar di, dukhiya ke suhaag me
dukhiya ke suhaag me
pal-pal manva roye chhalke naino ki gagariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
aai thi ankhiyo me lekar, sapae kya-kya pyar ke
sapae kya-kya pyar ke
jati hun do aansu lekar, aashayain sab haar ke
aashayain sab haar ke
duniyaa ke mele me lut gai jivan ki gathariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
darshan ke do pyase naina, jivan bhar na soyenge
jivan bhar na soyenge
bichhde saajan tumre kaaran, raato ko ham royenge
raato ko ham royenge
ab na jaane raama kaise bitegi umariya
nagari-nagari dware dware dhundu re savariya
piya-piya ratake mai to ho gayi re banvariya
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Nagri Nagri Dwaare Dwaare Dhundhu Re Sanwariya - नगरी-नगरी द्वारे-द्वारे ढूँढू रे सांवरिया
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved,
Repeating his name, I've become a madwoman,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved.
My heartless lover, he set me ablaze with sorrow's fire,
Set me ablaze with sorrow's fire,
Filled the embers of separation, in the fortune of a grieving soul,
In the fortune of a grieving soul,
Moment by moment, my heart weeps, tears overflow like a pitcher,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved.
I came with dreams in my eyes, dreams of love so grand,
Dreams of love so grand,
I depart with just two tears, all my hopes are in the sand,
All my hopes are in the sand,
Lost in the world's fair, life's bundle is stolen away,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved.
My eyes, starved for his sight, will never find rest in slumber,
Will never find rest in slumber,
Because of you, my lost love, I will weep through the nights in number,
I will weep through the nights in number,
Now I don't know how my remaining life will fare,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved,
Repeating his name, I've become a madwoman.
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved,
Repeating his name, I've become a madwoman,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved.
My heartless lover, he set me ablaze with sorrow's fire,
Set me ablaze with sorrow's fire,
Filled the embers of separation, in the fortune of a grieving soul,
In the fortune of a grieving soul,
Moment by moment, my heart weeps, tears overflow like a pitcher,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved.
I came with dreams in my eyes, dreams of love so grand,
Dreams of love so grand,
I depart with just two tears, all my hopes are in the sand,
All my hopes are in the sand,
Lost in the world's fair, life's bundle is stolen away,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved.
My eyes, starved for his sight, will never find rest in slumber,
Will never find rest in slumber,
Because of you, my lost love, I will weep through the nights in number,
I will weep through the nights in number,
Now I don't know how my remaining life will fare,
Through every town, at every door, I search for my beloved,
Repeating his name, I've become a madwoman.

In the -60's, started with MOTHER INDIA, indian movies became very popular
in Greece. The song "duniya main hum aaye" was adapted, with greek lyrics,
and is still considered to be an all time classic in my country. I was too
young and could'nt understand much, but i clearly remember how much i was
impressed by the colours, the backset, the acting and singing and acting in
these films. Like a fairytale, though scary sometimes...

Dear Yuan, thank you for uploading this. I saw this film when I was a young boy and it seeing it again after 50 years evokes a lot of memories and emotions. What a wonderful film that a mother's instinct to struggle for her children is beautifully reflected. Regretfully we do not see such memorable films these days.
Thank you for your effort in bringing such memories and emotions to all of us.

@shawneechief - lucky you. I too saw this movie in a Greek cinema on Park
Ave in Montreal, but I don't really understand Hindi and definitely do not
read Greek, but I still enjoyed the movie. @jajakumar - excellent movie and
mothers still have that instinct to struggle for their children and they
always will, even if they don't put it in the movies anymore. It is just
instinctive.

- This is one of the films that should be watched by all the sub continent people, regardless of nationality and the age, according to my sincere opinion.
Especially the younger generation, just to get the glimpse of the hard life [among many other things] our forefathers have under gone not so long ago!
Thank you, my friend.

One of the classic movies of the fifties. I love this film. Lata Mangeshkar
and Late Naushad Sahib produced some awesome memories which are evergreen.
Who can forget the accidental love between Nargis and Sunil Dutt. That
forced them to get married. Her role in this film was marvelous. I would
consider Mother India her best movie. I am sure that the future generations
would remember Nargis because of her immortal role. God bless the entire
unit of this film.(30th December 2010)
