Lyrics Translated in English:
My Friend Meena
My friend Meena (a doll) and I
Make for the dreams everyday;
We wish to make a world as good as heaven.
My friend Meena (a doll) and I
Make for the dreams everyday;
We wish to make a world as good as heaven.
A world of yours and mine
Where the people precede the religion;
A world of yours and mine
Where the people precede the religion
Where the trees, birds, cheetahs and deer
Would live like friends here;
There is a religion only where there is love;
Where people would hate the hatred;
Where the fortune would appear like a rainbow;
And people would be bright like daylight;
We wish to make a world as good as heaven.
This is the river, Oh my sister!
Which is free of all wickedness;
These seas, forests, deserts and mountains
Play with me gleefully;
These butterflies fly along the roads;
My feelings soar high in the sky;
We wish to make a world as good as heaven.
My friend Meena (a doll) and I
Make for the dreams everyday;
We wish to make a world as good as heaven.
A world of yours and mine
Where the people precede the religion;
A world of yours and mine
Where the people precede the religion
