Joshi G’s “Dard Aur Dava” lyrics bleed in translation, tracing a soul’s scars from love’s wreckage to society’s rot. He mourns a mother’s absence, a father’s rift, and lovers who torch lives, asking, “Who’ll call me from this dark?” The line “Bhuvi Dard Likhkar Dawa Ki Dukaan Ban Gaya” lands heavily: “Bhuvi, writing pain, became a medicine shop.”
Joshi G’s Dard Aur Dava Lyrics Meaning (in English)
ᗪukhti Ghadi Mein Yahan Kaun Mera Saath De?
In this painful time, who will stand by me?
Ꮇaa Se Juda Hoon Aur Banti Nahi Hai Baap Se
I am separated from my mother, and my relationship with my father is strained.
Ꮇain Bhala Aadmi, Bura Bana Haalaat Se
I am a good man, but I have turned bad by circumstances.
ᕼoon Andheron Mein Khoya, Mujhe Koi Toh Aawaaz De
I am lost in darkness; will someone please call out to me?
Ƴa Phir Na Bhi De, Ab Mujhe Kya Hi Farak
Or maybe not; what difference does it make now?
Ꮇaine Rishton Ko Nibha Ke Seekha Hai Ye Sabaq
I have learned this lesson by fulfilling my relationships.
Ƭu Jisko Sabse Zyada Chaahega, Satayega
The one you love the most will torment you.
Ꮃahi Tujhe Rulayega Bana Ke Zindagi Ko Narak
That same person will make you cry, turning your life into hell.
ᕼaan, Yahi Sachchaai Hai Aur Maine Yahi Seekha Hai
Yes, this is the truth, and I have learned this.
Ꭺur Seekha Hai Kitaabon Se Nahi, Bhai, Mujh Par Beeta Hai
And I haven’t learned it from books, brother; it has happened to me.
Ƴeh Kaisa Hi Saleeqa Hai Ki Kadve Ghoont Peeta Hai
What kind of behavior is this: swallowing bitter pills?
Ꭺur Muskura Ke Jeeta Hai Yeh ᗷhuvi Dekho
And smiling through life, look at this Bhuvi (‘Bhuvi’ is a name, possibly a nickname or a reference to the singer himself).
ᕼaan, Lagta Paagal Ho Gaya Hai
Yes, it seems he has gone mad.
Ⲓse Bhram Hai, Ya Sach-Much Mein Shayar Ho Gaya Hai?
Is he delusional, or has he become a poet?
ᒍab Se Dard Iski Zindagi Mein Daayar Ho Gaya Hai
Since pain has entered his life
Ꮮikhe Dard Bhi Toh Sunne Waala Qaayal Ho Gaya Hai, Kyun?
Even when he writes pain, the listener is enthralled; why?
Ꮶyunki Sabka Yahi Haal Hai
Because everyone is in the same state
Ƴeh ᗷhuvi Toh Bas Likh Deta, Yahi Toh Kamaal Hai
This Bhuvi just writes it down; that’s the magic
Ꮶisi Ke Liye Pyaar Hai Jo, Kisi Ka Malaal Hai
What is love for some is grief for others.
Ꮶisi Ke Liye Zaaya Hai Jo, Kisi Ke Liye Woh Roti-Daal Hai
What is wasted for some is sustenance (‘roti-daal,’ meaning bread and lentils, an essential meal) for others.
Ꮓindagi Ke Alag Dhang Dekhe
I have seen different shades of life.
Ꮇausam Se Zyada Badalte Maine Aadmi Ke Rang Dekhe
I have seen people change colors faster than the seasons.
Ꮆunehgaar Ghoomte Hue Netaaon Ke Sang Dekhe
I have seen criminals roaming around with politicians.
ᗷhale Aadmi Bhi Kitne Jailon Mein Hain Band Dekhe Maine
I have also seen so many good people locked up in jails.
Ꮇaine Dekha Hai Aulaad Ko Haath Uthaate Baap Pe
I have seen children raise their hands against their fathers.
Ꭺur Baap Ko Jeevan Lutaate Apni Us Aulaad Pe
And fathers sacrificing their lives for that same child.
Ƴahan Dekha Maine Bastiyon Mein Bachpan Bina Kapde Ke
Here, I have seen childhoods in slums without clothes.
Ꮶapdon Ka Dher Dekha Maine Magar Laash Pe
But I have seen heaps of clothes on a corpse.
Ꭺur Kaisa Dost, Jo Dost Ko
And what kind of friend is he, who
Ꮆiraane Ke Liye Roz Yahan Chaal Chalte Hain
Constantly plots to bring down his friend?
Ꮇaine Dekhi Aisi Mohabbat Jo Mohabbat Toh Na Thi
I have seen such love that was not love at all.
Ꮶhaali Premi Ek-Dooje Ko Halaal Karte Hain
Empty lovers simply destroy each other.
Ꮶoi Yahan Paison Pe Mar Raha, Kisi Ko Jisam Ki Hai Bhookh
Some are dying for money; some are hungry for bodies.
Ꮶoi Mazhab Ke Naam Pe Daale Praaniyon Mein Foot
Some divide beings in the name of religion.
ᗷhuvi Ghista-Ghista Kalam Khud Ghis Gaya
Bhuvi, by constant writing, has worn himself down,
Ꮮekin Is Kalam Se Kabhi Likha Nahi Jhooth, Aage Sun
But this pen has never written a lie; listen further.
Ƴeh Kaisi Ghadi Ho Gayi
What kind of time has this become?
16 Saal Ki Ladki Bhi Ab Badi Ho Gayi
Even a 16-year-old girl has now grown up.
ᑌse Chaahiye Followers, Use Chaahiye Fame
She wants followers; she wants fame.
Ꭺb Aadhi Nangi Woh Ⲓnsta Pe Khadi Ho Gayi
Now she stands half-naked on Instagram.
Ꮶya Yeh Sach Nahi? Տaare Bandhan Toot Gaye
Isn’t this the truth? All bonds have been broken.
14 Saal Ke Ladke Ab Nashon Mein Doob Gaye
14-year-old boys are now drowning in drugs.
Ꮶyon Samaaj Ke Maayne Saare Peechhe Chhoot Gaye?
Why have all the values of society been left behind?
Ꭺakhir Socho Toh Kabhi Ki Hum Hain Kahan Chook Gaye
Finally, think for a moment: where have we gone wrong?
ᗷollywood Yeh Aadha Vaishya-Khaana Ban Gaya
Bollywood has become half a brothel.
Ƴeh Kabootar Naujawaan Iska Daana Ban Gaya
The young pigeon has become its grain (prey).
Ꮮikha Sach Jo, Tere Liye Fasana Ban Gaya
What I wrote as truth has become a story for you.
Ꮶya Hi Khoob Aadhunik Yeh Zamana Ban Gaya
What a wonderful modern era this has become.
ᗷhole, Dekh, Insaan Bhagwan Ban Gaya
Look, man has become God.
Ꮇere Jaisa Shakhs Yahan Bejubaan Ban Gaya
A person like me has become voiceless here.
Ꮇera Shraap Hi Mere Liye Vardaan Ban Gaya
My curse has become my blessing.
ᗷhuvi Dard Likhkar Dawa Ki Dukaan Ban Gaya
Bhuvi, by writing pain, has become a medicine shop.
Ꭺur Yeh Likh Raha Hoon Gaana Baitha ᗪiwali Ke Din Main
And I am writing this song sitting on the day of Diwali.
ᗷaahar Diyon Ka Prakaash Aur Andhera Mere Dil Mein
Outside is the light of lamps and darkness in my heart.
Ꭺur In Shabdon Se Ek Diye Ko Jalaane Ka Prayaas
And with these words, an attempt to light a lamp.
Ƭu Bhi Mere Tarah, Jo Tujhe Sachchaai Dikhe Inmein
You are like me if you see the truth in these words.
Ꮇere Dost, Koi Nahi Aane Waala Bachane Tujhe
My friend, no one is coming to save you.
Ꮶhud Hi Hai Sambhalna Kyunki Ghar Bhi Hai Chalana Tujhe
You must take care of yourself because you must run your home, too.
ᖇaaste Meint Tere Vyasan Khoob Milenge
You will find many temptations on your path.
Ꮲar Yaad Rakhna Ki Ghar Ka Chiraag Hai Jalana Tujhe
But remember that you have to keep the lamp of your home burning.
Ƴeh Toh Duniya Hai, Rang Dikhaaye
This is the world; it will show its colors.
Ꭺise Haalaaton Mein Kaun Kiska Saath Nibhaaye?
In such situations, who will stand by whom?
ᕼaar Ho Sakta Hai Tujhe Har Mod Par Mile
You may face defeat at every turn.
Ꭺsal Vijeta Wahi Hai Jo Ki Aage Badhta Jaaye, Aur…
The real victor is the one who keeps moving forward, and…
Ꮶabhi Jeevan Mein Jo Chinta Sataaye
Sometimes in life, when worries trouble you.
Ꮶabhi Bheed Mein Bhi Khud Ko Jo Akela Tu Paaye
Sometimes, even in a crowd, when you find yourself alone.
Ƭab Yeh Sochna, Yeh Gaana Maine Likha Tere Liye
Then think about this song I wrote for you
Ⲓsmein Tere Aur Mere, Hain Dono Ke Bhaav Samaaye
It contains both your and my emotions.
