Please, hide from the moon Please, hide from the moon Don't, don't, don't let me go anywhere Song: Chand Se Parda Kijiye Movie: Shaan (1980)

English Translation:

Parda (Veil) While "Parda" traditionally refers to a physical veil or the practice of seclusion, in this romantic context, it is a flirtatious device. It suggests an intimacy—the hero wants her to veil herself not to hide, but because the act of veiling implies her beauty is too powerful for the world (and the celestial bodies) to handle. "Chand se parda kijiye" — "Veil the moon"

Furthermore, the phrase "Bijliyaan gir jaaye" is often literally translated as "Lightning will fall." However, in Hindi film lyrics, bijli is a metaphor for disaster, shock, or electric attraction. Our translation, "causing storms of envy," captures the social implication—jealous onlookers will cause trouble.

Her playful ways are many, her sidelong lashes deep —
You know best what I mean — draw the veil against the moon. Stanza 3: The Male Response (Amit Kumar) |
