Re: Susral Genda Phool
Hoye hoye hoye, Hoye hoye hoye
Saiyaan ched dewe,
(my husband keeps on teasing me)
Nanad chutki leve,
(the younger sister of my husband keeps on taunting me)
Sasural genda phool,
(sasural = in law's house, genda: name of a flower, marigold)
(In Traditional India, Sasural is not a easy place for a married woman, there are lot of boundaries, people and responsibilities. In this song woman says that my Sasural is very good for me like Marigold flower. )
Saas gaari deve,
(the mother of my husband keeps on abusing me)
Dewar samjha deve
(the younger brother of my husband keeps on explaining to me)
Sasural genda phool
Choda babul ka angana
(I had left the house of my father)
Bhaave deraa piya ka, ho
(I am liking the house of my husband)
Saas gaari deve,
Dewar ji samjha leve
Sasural genda phool
Saiyaan hain vypaari
(my husband is a businessman)
Chale hain pardes
(he is going to foreign place)
Sooratiyaan niharun,
(I am looking at his face)
jiyara bhaari hove,
(my heart is becoming heavy)
Sasural genda phool
Saas gaari deve,
Dewarji samjha leve,
Sasural genda phool
Saiyaan ched deve,
Nanad chutki leve,
Sasural genda phool
Choda babul ka angana,
Bhaave deraa piya ka, ho
Bushirt pahine,
(having attired in a shirt)
khaai ke bida paan,
(having chewn a betel)
Poore Raipur se alag hai, Saiyaan ji ki shaan,
(the glory of my husband is apart from that of anyone else is entire
Raipur city)
Sasural genda phool
Saiyaan ched deve
Nanad chutki leve
Sasural genda phool
Saas gaari deve
Dewarji samjha deve
Sasural genda phool
Choda babul ka angana
Bhaave deraa piya ka, ho
Hoye hoye hoye

Re: Susral Genda Phool
^^ God darn you are awesome. Good translation
except at one place, dewar samjha deve would translate to that when saas yells at her , her dewar reconciles her.
Moral of the song: even after hardships the lady loves her sasuraal.
Re: Susral Genda Phool

Re: Susral Genda Phool

punjabi
Re: Susral Genda Phool
^^ No no.. its bhojpuri
Most of the village type songs in hindi movies are taken from bhojpuri.
Re: Susral Genda Phool

i thought there was a bit of Awadhi too! i maybe entirely wrong too.
Re: Susral Genda Phool
I think like genda’s petals are close knit but it’s bulb(the part holding it together, if that’s what it’s called?) is quite small and delicate. Even a small shock sets the whole flower apart so metaphorically speaking you can compare the inlaws relationship to that. It’s a close but delicate relationship.

Someone on the internet said it's Chattisgarh/East Indian dialect, can you confirm this?
Re: Susral Genda Phool
Chattisgarh is centeral India and East India speaks totally alien languages.
BTW i understand chattisgarhi and i can confirm that genda fool is not it.
Re: Susral Genda Phool
So it's Bhojpuri then.
Re: Susral Genda Phool
^ Yes it is bhojpuri hindi. If you watched Big Boss 4 , manoj tiwari speaks in the same dilact and he is from bhojpuri movie industry
Re: Susral Genda Phool
Interesting :k:
