Song Meaning of “Janam Janam Ka Saath Hai – Bheegi Palken / Soundtrack Version” by Mohammed Rafi
Janam Janam Ka Saath Hai is a beautiful ode to love and friendship that transcends generations and lasts an eternity. From the lyrics, it appears to be the story of two lovers, whose love is constant and unending, even when they are re-born in different lifetimes.
The song starts with pleasant imagery of Nadiyaa behte pyaase paani, ‘running water of a thirsty river’, and celebrates the beauty of nature, implying that the same kind of beauty and devotion could be found in love and relationships.
The chorus goes Naari naari si lagan hai / Janam janam ka saath hai, ‘it is the emotion of a woman / the life-long companions are our souls.’ This could be interpreted as a reminder for the so-called Romeo and Juliet, that even in their different lifetimes, they have an unbreakable connection, in the form of their souls finding each other in different lifetimes.
The following lines, Is mein pyaar ki lagi hai / Is mein wafaon ka shaher, ‘love is within it / within this city of loyalty,’ are an idealistic celebration of true love that is based on loyalty, trust, and faithfulness and will persevere despite all obstacles.
