This is an interaction
between me and each one of my readers, I’ve been into translating Indian songs
since December 2017. Over 11 million
times my song translations were read by people all over the world, got to
meet so many wonderful people who showered me praises, love and smile of
affection, I’m grateful to all of you, in 3 weeks indilyrics.in will complete
its 1st year. It started with little baby steps and now it has taken
a special place in so many people’s life.
It’s so wonderful to see
all your mails showering me love and requesting songs and so many others. I try
my best to translate all the songs, but the things you might not know, I always
say REAL MEANING, because while
writing the translations I don’t just translate them I try to portray the real
meaning or feeling of the song/lyricist. Sometimes I keep listening to a song
for more than 3-4 hours just so that I can write with true feeling even though
I could have translated in 15 minutes.
Indilyrics.in isn’t just another
lyrics site, it’s a site which tries to bring people closer, through my efforts
at least now a south Indian knows what a broken hearted Bengali lover says, and
maybe a Bengali got to know how a Punjabi guy is flirting his love interest. Some
Russian got to know what Chogada meant whereas some South African fan girls got
to know what Raftaar is saying in Sheikh Chilli. The examples are countless and
the joy is boundless.
If something like the
things I just mentioned happened to you, then you’re a part of indilyrics.in
family. Since I have a big family now, I need to answer some questions I frequently
get and some complaints I have, Hope we can continue this.
Q. Why don’t you translate South Indian
Songs?
A. This is the most
common question I get almost every 3 days, I am really sorry I don’t know
Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam. And I don’t know if anyone is willing to teach me.
Q. Why you take quite long times
sometimes to translate the songs even though
the song is not much difficult to understand?
A. I don’t just
translate the songs, I always try to express the real meaning behind the song,
and meaning and translations are two different things, so sometimes I
intentionally take longer time to put the translation and meaning of a song, I
publish it, only when I understand the real Meaning and I’m able to publish it with
proper meaning.
Q. What is your mother tongue?
A. I am a Bengali, so
Bangla is my mother tongue, I got to know Hindi through Bollywood movie, and I
learnt (still learning) Punjabi to translate the songs, and I will be happy if
anyone can help me learn another new language.
Q. Why don’t you translate all the
Punjabi songs?
A. I’m still learning
Punjabi and hence I don’t know all the meaning of words that is the reason I
can’t translate all the Punjabi songs, because I want to post with perfection.
I’ll update this page as I
get more questions by you guys. I have some complaints I want to express, every
day I get so many mails, from so many countries but I never got any mail from
any Bangladeshi readers to translate and Bangladeshi songs. I have so many
readers in Bangladesh, but none of them requested me to translate a Bangladeshi
song, I got request to translate Pakistani songs and I did translate quite a
few songs. And I did translate 3 Bangladeshi songs but didn’t get them as
requests I just did them because I liked them, but it’s impossible for me to
keep track of every song that get released, that’s where the song request kicks
in, you guys always tell me your favorite songs to be translated and I do them
as fast as I can. Just no Bangladeshi song translation yet.
