Awaara Bhanwre

(1980)



Javed Akhtar wrote a song, Awaara Bhanwre (Vagabond Bees), for Rajiv Menon's film Sapnay (1997)

Update: A. sent this translation of the first stanza:

Awara bhanwre, jo haule haule gaye
Phoolon ke~ tan pe, hawayen sar sarayen

When the wayward bees hum softly
the breeze caresses the flower petals
