With the English translation of the song Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan

Aye dil hai mushkil jeena yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Ha haa, ha ho ho, ho hi haa ha haa
Hm hm hm hm, hm hm hm , hm hm hm hm hm
Aye dil hai..

(Kahin building kahin traame, kahin motor kahin mill
Milta hai yahan sab kuchh ik milta nahin dil) -2
Insaan ka nahin kahin naam-o-nishaan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Aye dil hai..

(Kahin satta, kahin patta kahin chori kahin res
Kahin daaka, kahin phaaka kahin thokar kahin thes) -2
Bekaaro ke hain kai kaam yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Aye dil hai..

(Beghar ko aawara yahan kehte has has
Khud kaate gale sabke kahe isko business) -2
Ik cheez ke hain kai naam yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Aye dil hai..


(Bura duniya woh hai kehta aisa bhola tu na ban
Jo hai karta woh hai bharta hai yahan ka yeh chalan) -2
Tadbeer nahin chalne ki yahan
Yeh hai Bombay, yeh hai Bombay, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan

Aye dil hai mushkil jeena yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Female Voice – Geeta
Aye dil hai aasaa jeena yahan
Suno mister, suno bandhu, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan
Male Voice Rafi:
Aye dil hai mushkil jeena yahan
Zara hat ke zara bach ke, yeh hai Bombay meri jaan

Below is the English Translation of The song - Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan

Oh my heart its difficult to live here
Be careful Be Smart , This is Bombay my love
Here you will find buildings and trams
Here you will find motor cars and mills
Here you will find everything except
You will not find one heart
You will not find humanity here
[ everyone is so busy in this city that no one has time to look at humans ]

Some do the gambling ,some play the numbers ,
Some go to the races others rob the people
Some starved ,some suffer insults
Others grieve
But still the unemployed manage
They got many jobs here
Here homeless is called as vagabonds
While at the same time they rob the people
Cut the throats and that is called as
Business
It’s the same game but its done under many a name

Female voice –
You say the world is bad
Don’t be so innocent ,beware
You will reap what you sow,
That’s the name of the game
Flexing your muscles
Wont make Bombay tame
Oh my heart this is Bombay
Living here is very easy and pleasurable
Gentlemen and brothers listen
This is my love Bombay

Male voice –
Oh my heart its difficult to live here
Be careful Be Smart , This is Bombay my love

But you can not take our fundamental right to say what we want.

Info on the song Oh My Darling Clementine
Oh My Darling, Clementine is an American western folk ballad usually credited to Percy Montrose (1884), even though it's sometimes referred to Barker Bradford. The song is believed to have been based on another song called Down by the River Liv'd a Maiden by H. S. Thompson (1863).
The words are those of a bereaved lover singing about his darling, the daughter of a miner in the 1849 California Gold Rush. He loses her in a drowning accident, though he consoles himself towards the end of the song with Clementine's "little sister".
