Teri Meri – Shreya Ghoshal

Teri Meri – Shreya Ghoshal
The film’s songs are composed by Himesh Reshammiya along with one song by Pritam Chakraborty while the lyrics are penned by Neelesh Misra and Shabbir Ahmed. The music rights were sold to T-Series for 60 million.

The film score is composed by Sandeep Shirodkar.

The melody of the song Teri Meri is inspired from the very old carols representing spiritual singing of Orthodox Romanian Church tradition, usually sung on Christmas Celebrations by many Orthodox Christians (which can be Romanian celebrities, such as Cleopatra Stratan in 2009 or Paula Seling in 2009/ priests in 2008/ or sung by normal people) to express their joy for Christ`s birth. Carols preserves some of the oldest Romanian poetic achievements being inspired from Holy Scripture and Holy Tradition, occupying an important place in the creation of Romanian people.

The translation of the original Romanian spiritual song “La Vifleem Colo-n Jos” lyrics should be emphasized and compared with the Indian version, since for Christians Orthodox may represent a blasphemy the fact the copyrights of the melody were taken and changed the lyrics of something which it is not owned.

Lyrics from original Romanian carol: “Down there at Bethlehem The sky burns brightly The most pure one gives birth today to Christ She gives birth in the stall of the oxen To everyone’s Emperor The most pure one, sits and cries slowly She neither has swaddling clothes to wrap Nor clothes-to-wear for the baby of Emperor Do not cry, my mother! Do not cry, my mother! Swaddling clothes we will give you, Virgin, to wrap the holy baby At Bethlehem down there.”

Shreya Ghoshal, Teri Meri lyrics
Teri meri, meri teri prem kahani hai mushkil
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
Ik ladka ik ladki ki yeh kahani hai nayi
Do lafzon mein yeh bayan na ho paaye

तेरी मेरी, मेरी तेरी प्रेम कहानी है मुश्किल
दो लफ़्ज़ों में ये बयाँ ना हो पाए
इक लड़का, एक लडकी की ये कहानी है नयी
दो लफ़्ज़ों में ये बयाँ ना हो पाए

Yours and mine, mine and yours, love story is difficult,
can’t tell it in two words,
This story of a girl and a boy is new,
can’t express it in two words..

Teri meri, meri teri prem kahani hai mushkil
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
Ik dooje se hue juda Jab ik dooje ke liye bane

तेरी मेरी मेरी तेरी प्रेम कहानी है मुश्किल
दो लफ़्ज़ों में यह बया न हो पाए
इक दूजे से हुए जुदा जब इक दूजे के लिए बने

Yours and mine, mine and yours, love story is difficult,
can’t tell it in two words,
Separated from each other when made for each other..

Tumse dil jo lagaya toh jahaan maine paaya
Kabhi socha na tha yoon meelon door hoga saaya
Kyun khuda tune mujhe aisa khwaab dikhaya
Jab haqeeqat mein use todna tha

तुमसे दिल जो लगाया तो जहां मैंने पाया
कभी सोचा न था यूँ मीलों दूर होगा साया
क्यूँ खुदा तुने मुझे ऐसा ख्वाब दिखाया
जब हकीकत में उससे तोडना था

When I loved you, I got the world,
but never thought (even) your shadow will be miles away,
O god why you gave me such a dream,
when you had to break it in reality..

Ik dooje se hue judaa, jab ik dooje ke liye bane
Teri meri, meri teri prem kahani hai mushkil
Do lafzon mein yeh Bayaan na ho paaye

इक दूजे से हुए जुदा जब इक दूजे के लिए बने
तेरी मेरी मेरी तेरी प्रेम कहानी है मुश्किल
दो लफ़्ज़ों में यह बया न हो पाए

Separated from each other when made for each other..
Yours and mine, mine and yours, love story is difficult,
can’t tell it in two words,

Teri meri baaton ka har lamha sabse anjaana,
do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye

तेरी मेरी बातों का हर लम्हा सब से अंजाना
दो लफ़्ज़ों में यह बया न हो पाए

Every moment of your amd my talks is unknown to all else
can’t express it in two words..

Har ehsaas mein tu hai har ik yaad mein tera afsaana
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye

हर एहसास में तू है हर इक याद में तेरा अफसाना
दो लफ़्ज़ों में यह बया न हो पाए

You’re in every feeling, and your story in every memory
can’t express it in words..

Sara din beet jaaye, Saari raat jagaye
Bas khayal tumhara lamha lamha tadpaye
Yeh tadap keh rahi hai mit jaaye faasle
Tere mere darmayaan hai Jo saare

सारा दिन बीत जाए सारी रात जगाये
बस ख्याल तुम्हारा लम्हा लम्हा तडपाये
यह तड़प कह रही है मिट जाए फासले
यह तेरे मेरे दरमया जो है सारे

The entire day passes, all the night I am awake,
Your thought troubles me day and night,
this longing is saying that the distances should go
which exist between you and me..

Ik dooje se hue juda Jab ik dooje ke liye bane
Teri meri baaton ka har lamha sab se anjaana
Do lafzon mein yeh Bayaan na ho paaye

इक दूजे से हुए जुदा जब इक दूजे के लिए बने
तेरी मेरी बातों का हर लम्हा सब से अंजाना
दो लफ़्ज़ों में यह बया न हो पाए

Separated from each other when made for each other..
Every moment of your amd my talks is unknown to all else
can’t express it in two words..

Har ehsaas mein tu hai har ik yaad mein tera afsaana
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye

हर एहसास में तू है हर इक याद में तेरा अफसाना
दो लफ़्ज़ों में यह बया न हो पाए

You’re in every feeling, and your story in every memory
can’t express it in words..

Teri meri, meri teri prem kahani hai mushkil
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye

तेरी मेरी, मेरी तेरी प्रेम कहानी है मुश्किल
दो लफ़्ज़ों में ये बयाँ ना हो पाए

Yours and mine, mine and yours, love story is difficult,
can’t tell it in two words,
