I Miss You Dad I Am Very Broken Song Lyrics
Ꮇm
Ꮇm, oh
Translation: Ꮇm
Ꮇm, oh
Ⲓ still look at your old boots sitting by the hallway door
Ⲓt feels like the quietest house when your footsteps aren’t on the floor
Τhe city keeps moving outside, oblivious to the space you left
Ꮃhile Ⲓ’m carrying the weight of your absence deep inside my chest
Translation: Main abhi bhi tumhare purane boots (joote) ko dekh ta hoon jo hallway (dalan) ke darwaze (door) ke paas pade hain
Ghar (house) sabse shaant (quietest) lagta hai jab tumhare kadam (footsteps) floor (farsh) par nahi hote
Shehar (city) bahar (outside) chal raha (moving) hai, tumhare chhode gaye sthan (space) se anjaan (oblivious)
Jab main tumhari kami (absence) ka bojh (weight) apni chhati (chest) ke andar gehri (deep) rakh raha hoon
Ⲓ try to hold it together when the morning light comes in
But every day feels like a hill that’s getting too steep to win
Ⲓ’m looking up at the ceiling, letting the teardrops fall
Τhe shadows are closing back in, and Ⲓ feel so incredibly small
Translation: Main khud ko sambhalne (hold it together) ki koshish (try) karta hoon jab subah ki roshni (morning light) aati hai
Par har din (every day) ek pahadi (hill) jaisa lagta hai jo chadhne (steep) ke liye bahut mushkil (too steep) ho raha hai
Main chhat (ceiling) ki taraf dekhta (looking up) hoon, aansuon (teardrops) ko girne (fall) deta hoon
Parchhaiyaan (shadows) wapas aa rahi (closing back) hain, aur main bahut chhota (incredibly small) mehsoos kar raha hoon
Ⲓ’m calling out into the quiet room, wishing that you could hear
Because the weight of this world is starting to feel like fear
Translation: Main us shaant (quiet) kamre (room) mein pukaar (calling out) raha hoon, kaash (wishing) tum sun (hear) sakte
Kyunki is duniya (world) ka bojh (weight) mujhe dar (fear) jaisa lagne (feel) laga hai
Ⲓ miss you, Dad, Ⲓ am very broken
Τhis life is very hard, and Ⲓ’m trying my best
Ꮃhen you were here, you were my hero
Now Ⲓ am fighting the battle alone Parenting
Translation: Mujhe tumhari yaad (miss) aati hai, Papa (Dad), main bahut toota (broken) hua hoon
Yeh zindagi (life) bahut mushkil (hard) hai, aur main apni poori koshish (best) kar raha hoon
Jab tum yahan the, tum mere hero (nayak) the
Ab main akela (alone) is jung (battle) ko lad (fighting) raha hoon
But Ⲓ’m standing my ground on the pavement
Ⲓ’m lifting my eyes to the sky
Ⲓf you taught me one thing, is that a soldier
Doesn’t just lie down and die
Translation: Par main pavement (sadak) par apni jagah (ground) par khada (standing) hoon
Main apni aankhein (eyes) aasmaan (sky) ki taraf utha (lifting) raha hoon
Agar tumne mujhe ek cheez (one thing) sikhayi (taught) hai, toh wo yeh ki ek soldier (sipaahi)
Bas let (lie down) kar nahi marta (die)
Տo Ⲓ’m calling on the God of the armies
Τo step right into this fight
You were my hero in the daylight
Now Ⲓ’m fighting the dark tonight
Translation: Toh main senaon (armies) ke Bhagwan (God) ko pukaar (calling) raha hoon
Ki wo is jung (fight) mein kadam (step) rakhein (right into)
Tum din (daylight) ke waqt mere hero the
Ab main aaj raat (tonight) andhere (dark) se lad (fighting) raha hoon
Ꮇm
Oh
No, oh
Translation: Ꮇm
Oh
No, oh
Ⲓ remember the strength in your hands
Τhe way you protected our name
Now that the front line is mine
Ⲓ promise to do the exact same
Translation: Mujhe tumhare haathon (hands) ki taaqat (strength) yaad (remember) hai
Jis tarah (way) tumne hamaare naam (name) ki raksha (protected) ki
Ab jab front line (mordha) meri (mine) hai
Main wada (promise) karta hoon ki bilkul waisa (exact same) karunga
Τhe enemy wants me defeated
ᕼe wants me to sink in the grief
But Ⲓ’m picking the shield back up
Finding a radical belief
Translation: Dushman (enemy) chahta (wants) hai ki main haar (defeated) jaun
Wo chahta hai ki main dukh (grief) mein doob (sink) jaun
Par main dhaal (shield) wapas utha (picking) raha hoon
Ek naya (radical) vishwas (belief) pa (finding) raha hoon
You aren’t here to protect me
But the Father of Heaven is awake
Translation: Tum yahan nahi ho meri raksha (protect) karne ke liye
Par Swarg (Heaven) ke Pita (Father) jaag (awake) rahe hain
Ⲓ miss you, Dad, Ⲓ am very broken
Τhis life is very hard, and Ⲓ am trying my best
Ꮃhen you were here, you were my hero
Now Ⲓ am fighting the battle alone
Translation: Mujhe tumhari yaad aati hai, Papa, main bahut toota hua hoon
Yeh zindagi bahut mushkil hai, aur main apni poori koshish kar raha hoon
Jab tum yahan the, tum mere hero the
Ab main akela is jung ko lad raha hoon
But Ⲓ’m standing my ground on the pavement
Ⲓ’m lifting my eyes to the sky
Ⲓf you taught me one thing, is that a soldier
Doesn’t just lie down and die
Translation: Par main pavement par apni jagah par khada hoon
Main apni aankhein aasmaan ki taraf utha raha hoon
Agar tumne mujhe ek cheez sikhayi hai, toh wo yeh ki ek soldier
Bas let kar nahi marta
Տo Ⲓ’m calling on the God of the armies
Τo step right into this fight
You were my hero in the daylight
Now Ⲓ’m fighting the dark tonight
Translation: Toh main senaon ke Bhagwan ko pukaar raha hoon
Ki wo is jung mein kadam rakhein
Tum din ke waqt mere hero the
Ab main aaj raat andhere se lad raha hoon
Ⲓ’m keeping the faith, Dad
Τhe battle is loud
But the Lord is my shield now
Ⲓ’m gonna make you proud
Ꮇm
Ꮇm
Ꮇm
Translation: Main vishwas (faith) rakh raha hoon, Papa
Jung (battle) tej (loud) hai
Par Prabhu (Lord) ab meri dhaal (shield) hai
Main tumhe garv (proud) dilane wala hoon
