Great song.. but what does it mean?
Sahadev Komaragiri
I enjoy listening to hindi songs as much as any of you do.
Although I am a Hyderabadi and understand hindi very well... I have a serious
problem with pure Hindi of Madhya Pradesh or U.P Standards.. Therefore ....
I enjoy listening to songs taken from a sense of music, but fail to understand
the song in its entirety. I have a serious problem understanding the songs
of Geeta Dutt. It is particularly painful if you do not understand one word
of a song you claim is your favorite song. For example I like this song:
Eechak dhaana eechak dhaana .. dhane upar dhaana eechak dhaana....something
something... ladka hy deewana .. eechak dhaana....
In this song I could not make out what "eechak" or is it "Peechak" or something
else... means. I know that this song is full of riddles and the children list-
ening to this song try to solve 'em while Raj hangs around amusing
himself. (Film: Sri 420: Lata:?? ... I saw this movie) I would really
Appreciate if somebody can post the translation for this great song.
That something something in the above song.. I am worried .. I may not even be
able to pronounce(I am not worried .. most of you would not either)
Here is a list of my favorite songs.. but there are dozens of words in
these songs .. that do not really make any sense to me.
1. Pooj mera kyaa naam re nadi kinare gaav mey peepal .. something something...
(First song in CID?)
2. Thandi hawa kali ghat aahi gayi zoom ke... pyar something something ...
(Geeta Dutt)
3. Meri choti si behan.. something something.. sasural chali something...
(Geeta Dutt)
4. Man dole mera tan dole mohe ... something something...(Lata M)
This list might trouble you all a lot ( many of u might have faced similar
problems, I am sure) and more so if I do not stop this list here.
I would add more songs of this nature ... and that depends on the response.
I would deeply appreciate if some one could come to my rescue.. and help in
understanding atleast a few songs if not many of them.
Regards,
Sahadev

Chhat ke upar ladki naache, ladka hai deewana.. eechak daana
Don't know what eechak-beechak mean, but the line refers to
something which has 'a lot of seeds' and ..
A girl's dancing on the terrace and a boy is 'mad about her'.
'Aik Jaanwar aisa, jiski dum per paisa
Sir pe hai taaj bhi, baadshah ke jaisa
Bolo kya???'
An animal that has a 'coin' (refers to shape and appearence) on its tail.
It also has a crown on its head, one like a king. Say, what's it?
The kids answer: 'More' (Peacock)

Meaning ? [Should have been clear from the song itself]
It is a song sung by a village girl who has just stepped into her youth.
She is crazy about herself , her appearence . She is asking you to
guess her name , it would be rather better to say she is asking you
for a name that would be appropriate for her , from the various
clues, description she is giving in her song.
