I dedicate this poem to Rahman sir and all my beloved Rahmaniac brothers and sisters..!! so here's my poem with translation: THE LEGEND OF RAHMAN Rahman ji, Rahman ji, aap hi ho suron ke sartaaj, Aap hi to GODFATHER ho humaare, Aap hi ho humaare YUVRAAJ. Suna humne aap hi ko sadaa, Bha gayi humein aap ki har ek ADA . BOMBAY se lekar DELHI-6 tak ghumaaya aapne, BLUE ko BULLU kehna sikhaaya aapne. Zindagi ki iss DAUD mein aap hi bane humaare SAATHIYA, Chal padi geeton ki aisi FIZA, Jiske aage na tik paaye aandhiyaan. Banke YUVA aapne sunaayi humein MANGAL PANDEY ki kranti ki PUKAR, Fir bane aap JODHA ke AKBAR or KHWAJA ji ki rehmat ki hone lagi bouchhaar. DIL HI DIL MEIN, DIL SE, DIL NE JISE APNA KAHA Wo aap hi toh ho, Kabhi humaare GURU, kabhi humaare STAR Wo aap hi toh ho. HEAVEN aur EARTH ke beech ke CONNECTIONS Aap hi ne to jode hain, Bol ke VANDE MATARAM jaane kitne hi log Apne SWADES ki ore mode hain. JAI HO ki TAAL pe jhoom rahe Ab to sab ke sab, Kheech lo koi bhi LAKEER THE LEGEND OF RAHMAN nahi rukega ab. Kehna tha bas yehi mujhe iss NAYAK ke baare mein, Aaj bhi ek alag hi TEHZEEB hai Duniya ke iss chamakte sitaare mein. LOVE YOU HAMESHA sir..!! JAI HO..!! :-) TRANSLATION Rahman ji Rahman ji, you are the crown of musical notes, You are our godfather, You are our prince. We always listened to you, We liked every style of yours, You made us travel from Bombay to Delhi-6, You taught us how to say BULLU in place of BLUE. In this run for life, You only became our companion, Such a breeze of songs started to blow, In front of which even the storms cannot stay. Becoming a youth you told us Mangal Pandey’s call for the revolution, Then u became Jodha’s Akbar And Khwaja ji’s blessings started to rain. Within the heart itself, whom the heart called someone its own from the heart (it’s tough :P) That’s you, Sometimes our teacher, sometimes our star That’s you. You only joined the connections between heaven and earth, You only turned numerous people towards their nations by saying vande mataram. Now everyone is dancing to the rhythm of jai ho, Put any border but the legend of Rahman will not stop. I just had to say this about this hero, That even today this shining star has special elegance.!! LOVE YOU ALWAYS SIR..!! JAI HO..!! :-) regards mukul::rahmaniac
