Sheher Sheher Lyrics in English Letters (Romanized)
Uth Ja, Ruk Ja
Shehar Shehar Jal Raha
Hawa Mein Hai Kyun Dhuaan?
Sadkein Laal Laal Kyun?
Lahu Ka Rang Har Jagah
Farak Farak Tujh Mein
Mujh Mein Nafrat Hi Bhara
Bheed Ki Shakal Mein Nikla
Phir Se Kaal Ye Prachand Sa
Aankh Ke Badle Aankh
Aag Ke Badle Aag
Raakh Kar Di Duniya Tune
Jala Ke Samaaj
Sar Kalam Kitne Hue?
Kitno Ki Bichi Laash Hai?
Kisi Ki Galti Kisi Ka Kasur
Kaun Gunehgaar Hai?
Kal Ka Masla Badh Ke Fata Tha
Do Pal Mein Bandh Ke Chhalta Asla
Khabar Khabar Udti Hai Phir
Le Khel Kisi Ka Tumhara Badla
Shehar Shehar Jal Raha
Hawa Mein Hai Kyun Dhuaan?
Sadak Laal Laal Kyun?
Lahu Se Hai Ye Bhara
Manwa Ruaab Che
Kapad Ma Tanaav Che
Aag Che Ba Ukad Ya Che
Ha Rasta Vichar Che
Satya Shu Asatya Shu
A Hatya Nivaar Che
Sarvanaash Nu Apoot
Pag Pag Jhalkaye Che, Rakt Deyo
Rakt Deyo Rakt Maara
Jivda Ne Shaanti Deyo
Kahu Su Kono Ha Kahu Su Bolo
Aatank Ni Havas Manwa Taras
Maaru Shikaar Nat Samaaj
Nathya Srishti Nat Samaan
Aag Che Badhe Che
Har Koi Na Rok Sake Che
Mrityudand Karm Dharm Paksh Parv Sarvanaash
Rakt Jalta Hai Prachand
Dheen Sab To Ka Tamaam
Mrityudand Karm Dharm Paksh Parv Sarvanaash
Rakt Jalta Hai Prachand
Dheen Sab To Ka Tamaam
Jaati Dharm Sharmnaak Hai
Baadi Naakh Ho Ek Aawaaz
Shastr Aag De Dahaad
Kar Prahaar, Aag Hi Aag
Aag Hi Aag, Kar Prahaar
Shehar Shehar Jal Raha
Hawa Mein Hai Kyun Dhuaan?
Sadak Laal Laal Kyun?
Lahu Se Hai Ye Bhara
Uth Ja
Aag Che Badhe Che
Har Koi Na Rok Sake Che

Sheher Sheher Song Description
This song, 'Sheher Sheher', tells a very deep and emotional story. The song begins with questions itself, "The city is burning, why is there smoke in the air?" It describes the scene of a horrific communal violence or riot, where the streets are red and there is blood everywhere. The lyrics explain how people's hearts have been filled with hatred, and a crowd has taken on a monstrous form. The song asks poignant questions, "How many heads were severed? How many dead bodies lay scattered?" It is a complete portrayal of a tragedy.
The song then features a strong Gujarati rap portion, which makes the entire mood even more intense. The rap uses words like 'Rakt deyo' (to give blood) and 'Aatank' (terror), depicting the violence and chaos. It conveys that the fire has spread too much and now no one can stop it. The song highlights the violence spreading in society, the fighting in the name of caste and religion, and delivers the message that all of this is 'shameful'. The entire song acts like a powerful social commentary, forcing listeners to think.
