Satyamev Jayate (6): Haule Haule… song



Bikhrey tootey tukde saare judh rahe hain

Dheere dheere, haule haule
Betuke se sur woh saare mil rahe hain

Dheere dheere, haule haule
Aainey ka dhundhlaa chehra khil raha hai

Dheere dheere, haule haule

Nanhisi ek jaan ne apna bachpan khoya
Khauff ki maili chadar odhke soya
Bebas, akela, bezubaan, chupchaap royaa

Barson se yeh behte aansoo tham rahe hain

Dheere dheere, haule haule

Khul rahi aankhen jo ab tak nam rahi hain

Dheere dheere, haule hauley
Aainey ka dhundhlaa chehra khil raha hai

Dheere dheere, haule hauley

Chura ke khud se aankhein main har pal jiya

Zahar jo usne ghola maine woh piya

Chuppi ke aadh mein chipkar usne jurm kiya

Zubaan par laga woh taala khul raha hai

Dheere dheere, haule haule
Meri nahi koi khata ye pataa chala hai

Dheere dheere, haule haule
Aainey ka dhundhlaa chehra khil raha hai

Dheere dheere, haule haule



Ram Sampath has both given music and lent his voice to the song Haule haule… which he performed at the end of Episode 2 of Satyamev Jayate. Svati Chakrvarty has penned the lyrics describing the pain and suffering and the long road to recovery of a child who has been sexually abused. Below I have tried to translate the above lyrics in English for those who do not understand Hindi.  


Scattered, broken pieces are all unifying
Gently gently, slowly slowly
Those meaningless notes are all intermixing
Gently gently, slowly slowly
The mirror's faint reflection is blossoming
Gently gently, slowly slowly

A little life has had its childhood lost
In a sheet dirtied with fear, covered he slept
Powerless, alone, voiceless, silently he wept
Since years these flowing tears, are ceasing
Gently gently, slowly slowly
Eyes that were moist till now, are clearing
Gently gently, slowly slowly
The mirror's faint reflection is blossoming
Gently gently, slowly slowly

Avoided I facing myself, every moment that I lived
The poison that he stirred in, it I sipped
Hiding behind a garb of silence, the crime he committed
The lock which was on the lips is unfastening
Gently gently, slowly slowly
That nothing is my fault, I am this realizing
Gently gently, slowly slowly
The mirror's faint reflection is blossoming
Gently gently, slowly slowly
