    Lyrics for Jai Ho by A R RAHMAN

    Transliteration first, then English lyrics

    Jai Ho!

    Chakh le, haan chakh le, yeh raat shehed hai
    Chakh le, haan rakh le,

    Dil hai, dil aakhri hadd hai

    Kaala kaala kaajal tera

    Koi kaala jaadu hai na?

    Aaja aaja jind shamiyaane ke taley

    Aaja zari waale neele aasmaane ke taley

    Jai Ho!

    Kab se haan kab se jo lab pe ruki hai

    Keh de, keh de, haan keh de

    Ab aankh jhuki hai

    Aisi aisi roshan aankhein

    Roshan dono heerey (?) hain kya?

    Aaja aaja jind shamiyaane ke taley

    Aaja zari waale neele aasmaane ke taley

    Jai Ho!

    Translation:

    Jai Ho =Something between “Hail” and “Hallelujah”

    Come, come my Life, under the canopy

    Come under the blue brocade sky!

    Iota by iota, I have lost my life, in faith

    I’ve passed this night dancing on coals

    I blew away the sleep that was in my eyes

    I counted the stars till my finger burned

    Come, come my Life, under the canopy

    Come under the blue brocade sky!

    Taste it, taste it, this night is honey

    Taste it, and keep it,

    It’s a heart; the heart is the final limit

    You dark black kohl

    It’s some black magic, isn’t it?

    Come, come my Life, under the canopy

    Come under the blue brocade sky!

    For how long, how very long

    It’s been on your lips

    Say it, now say it

    The eye is downcast

    Such lit up eyes

    Are they two lit-up dimaonds(?) ?

    Come, come my Life, under the canopy

    Come under the blue brocade sky!

    This song was great. Pussycat dolls made an awesome dance step and it was a great music video. And of course a great movie to watch.

    The “Slumdog Millionaire” movie was one of the best movies that I have seen in my generation. Yes, it was one of the best. It doesnt have super special effects and stuff that you could see on Spielberg or Michael Bay movies. However, the storyline was so touching, so real that it really deserved all the awards that it receive.

    It was funny; we were watching this for the first time on DVD then we were about to applaud when it was finish, then this dance went playing and we ROFL’d like crazy monkeys!

    @Maisie Marshall : What does Jai Ho has to do with identity theft?

    Thanks! great post!
