Chhaava Poetry Lyrics in English Letters (Romanized) – Full Last Scene Poem Dialogue Lyrics
Maharaj:
Inke Shabd Ichchhadhari Hathiyar Hain,
Kabhi Teer Ban Jaate Hain, Kabhi Talwar!
Maharaj:
Chandogamatya!
Yaad Hai Humne Kaha Tha Aapse Ek Baar
Ki Hum Aapse Kavitaon Ki Pratiyogita Karenge.
Kavi:
Aur Humne Kaha Tha Ki
Aap Bina Pratiyogita Ke Vijayi Hain!
Maharaj:
Man Ke Jeete Jeet Hai,
Man Ke Haare Haar.
Kavi:
Haar Gaye Jo Bin Lade,
Un Par Hai Dhikkar.
Maharaj:
Un Par Hai Dhikkar
Jo Dekhe Na Sapna,
Kavi:
Sapnon Ka Adhikar
Asal Adhikar Hai Apna.
Maharaj:
Apnon Ki Khaatir
Karna Kuchh Aaj Humein.
Ajar Amar Kar Dena Hai Swaraj Humein.
Kavi:
Tu Maati Ka Laal Hai,
Koi Kankar Ya Dhool Nahin.
Tu Samay Badal Ke Rakh Dega,
Itihas Likhega, Bhool Nahin.
Maharaj:
Tu Bhor Ka Pehla Taara Hai,
Parivartan Ka Ek Naara Hai.
Yah Andhkaar Kuchh Pal Ka Hai,
Phir Sab Kuchh Tumhara Hai.
Kavi:
Sevak Ka Aakhiri Mujra Sweekar Kijiye, Raaje!
Kavi:
Ja Rahe Hain,
Aapke Shatruon Ke Chot Par Lagne.
Humne Kaha Tha, Hum Namak Hain Maharaj...
Maharaj:
Tum Namak Nahin, Chandan Ho Kavi,
Tum Tilak, Humaare Maathhe Ka!
Kavi:
Kavitaen Khatm Hui Raaje!
Ant Mein Jeet Aapki Hui.
Kavi:
Janmaanas Ke Bhoop Rahoge.
Charam Chamakti Dhoop Rahoge.
Prasann Rahe Maata Jagdamba.
O Chhatrapati, O Sahchar Sambha!
Hum Namak Hain Maharaj...
Hum Namak Hain!
Maharaj:
Tum Namak Nahin, Chandan Ho Kavi,
Tum Tilak, Humaare Maathhe Ka!

Chhaava Poetry Scene Description
This dialogue/poetry "Tum Namak Nahi, Chandan Ho Kavi" is from the climax scene of the movie Chhaava. It is a powerful poetry dialogue between Vicky Kaushal (as Sambhaji Maharaj) and Vineet Kumar Singh (as Kavi Kalash). This poem is popularly known as "Man Ke Jeete Jeet Hai, Man Ke Haare Haar", written by Kavi Kalash. This scene is at the emotional peak of the movie, featuring an emotional and inspiring conversation between Sambhaji Maharaj and the poet.
The lyrics of this poem have a deep meaning. At the beginning, the Maharaja says that words are wish-fulfilling weapons; sometimes they become arrows, sometimes swords. Then he reminds the poet that they will have a poetry competition. But the poet says that the Maharaja is victorious without any competition. Afterwards, they both talk about the power of the mind, like "Man Ke Jeete Jeet Hai, Man Ke Haare Haar" (Victory lies in a conquered mind, defeat in a defeated one), and the right to dream is called the true right.
In the final part, the poet calls himself salt, but the Maharaja calls him sandalwood and the tilak on his own forehead. This dialogue shows friendship, devotion, and commitment to self-rule (Swaraj). The poet says, "Janmanas Ke Bhup Rahoge, Charam Chamakti Dhoop Rahoge" (You will be the king of the people's hearts, you will be the ultimate blazing sun), and it ends with the poem "Hum Namak Hain" (We are salt). This is a memorable and emotional moment for the Chhaava Climax Poetry Scene Lyrics, which inspires the viewers.
