Lyrics

म्हातारा इतुका न, अवघें पाऊणशें वयमान

लग्ना अजुनि लहान

Mhātārā itukā na, avagheṃ pāūṇaśeṃ vaya-māna

Lagnā azuni lahāna

Not so much an old man, all-in-all a quarter short of a century in age

He's yet young to be married

दन्ताजीचें ठाणें उठलें, फुटले दोन्ही कान

डोळे रुसले, कांहिं न बघती, नन्ना म्हणते मान

Dantājīçeṃ ṭhāṇeṃ uṭhaleṃ, phuṭale donhī kāna

Ḍoḷe rusale, kāṃhiṃ na baghatī, nannā mhaṇate māna

Sir Teeth has decamped; both eardrums broken

Eyes enraged, see nothing; neck says nod-nod

तुरळक कोठें केस रुपेरी, डोईस टक्कल छान

भार वयाचा वाहुनि वाहुनि कंबर होय कमान

Turaḷaka koṭheṃ kesa ruperī, ḍoīsa ṭakkala chāna

Bhāra vayāçā vāhuni vāhuni kambara hoya kamāna

Sparse silvery hairs somewhere; a pate nicely bald

Schlepping, schlepping the weight of age, spine's become an arch

काठीवांचुनि नेट न पाया, परि मोठें अवसान

उसनी घेउनि ऐट चालतां काय दिसें तें ध्यान

Kāṭhīvāṃçuni neṭa na pāyā, pari moṭheṃ avasāna

Usanī gheuni aiṭa çālatāṃ kāya diseṃ teṃ dhyāna

Without a stick, no power to the foot, yet grand mettle

Borrowing strut to walk, how that vision appears!

Why shouldn't a white-skinned young man in British clothes ogle a Marathi married woman? She tells him why not in this tamāśā song.

Lyrics

माझ्याकडं बघतोस काय रं चोरा?

अरं अरं सूटबूटवाल्या पोरा

Mājhyākaḍaṃ baghatosa kāya raṃ çorā?

Araṃ araṃ sūṭa-būṭa-vālyā porā

Are you looking at me, hey, sneak?

Hey, hey, boy in the suit and shoes!

तुला ठाव हाय का मी कोण?

मला ठेवल्यात नांवं दोन

माहेरची मी बकुळा बरं का?

सासरची मी गजरा

Tulā ṭhāva hāya kā mī koṇa?

Malā ṭhevalyāta nāṃvaṃ dona

Māheracī mī Bakuḷā baraṃ kā?

Sāsaracī mī Gazarā

Are you aware who I am?

I've been given two names

At my parental home, I'm Bakuḷā, got it?

At my marital home, I'm Gazarā

ऐन्यात मुखडा बघून घे जा सूटबूटवाल्या पोरा

ऊन दुधात चहा जसा कोरा रं तू सूटबूटवाल्या पोरा

Ainyāta mukhaḍā baghūna ghe zā sūṭa-būṭa-vālyā porā

Ūna dudhāta cahā zasā korā raṃ tū sūṭa-būṭa-vālyā porā

Take a look at your mug in a mirror, go, boy in the suit and shoes!

Like tea in warm milk, you're a blank, hey, boy in the suit and shoes!

मी नव्या नवतीची नार

आले करून सोळा शिंगार

या नजरेचा तीर फेकुनी

उतरून ठेवीन तोरा

Mī navyā navatīcī nāra

Āle karūna soḷā śiṅgāra

Yā nazareçā tīra phekunī

Utarūna ṭhevīna torā

I'm a fresh young woman

Decorated in sixteen ways

Shooting this glance's arrow

I'll strip you of your vanity

लई महाग पडंल ह्यो खेळ

जरा सांभाळ आपला तोल

मागे येऊन उभा ऱ्हायलाय

ह्यो बघ माझा न्हवरा

Laī mahāga paḍaṃla hyo kheḷa

Zarā sāmbhāḷa āpalā tola

Māge yeūna ubhā rhāyalāya

Hyo bagha māzhā nhavarā

This game will cost you heavily

Watch your balance for a moment

Behind you comes and stands

Look! This is my husband

Heyyyyyaaa LOVES!

Going through this thread is such a mood buster 🥳 Thanks everyone for sharing the songs and the stories behind them.

Chahe Koi Khush Ho from Taxi Driver (1954) has both Kishore's voice and Johny Walker's presence. Dev Anand in a different avatar from his trademark romantic hero 😆
