Thanks for the same! Here it is: I'll attempt to convey the spirit and soul of the song, not mere literal translation. Firstly, the feelings expressed are of a woman. 'Prem Jogan' is a woman in love who has given up or forgotten the rest of the world, a rare species getting extinct fast! The song is wailings of the prem jogan dying to meet her beloved. All she wants is to meet her beloved to quench the thirst of her mind. And she is going towards her beloved, wishing to spend whole night with him. But she is afraid... Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan can be described as an artiste who has had the maximum impact on the 20th Century Hindustani Classical Music scenario. Born in 1902 into a great musical lineage from Kasur in the Western Punjab, this great savant amalgamated the best of four traditions; his own Patiala - Kasur style, sculpturesque Behram Khani elements of Dhrupad, the intricate gyrations of Jaipur and finally the robust behlavas (embellishments) of Gwaiior. But what actually characterised Bade Ghulam Ali Khan was an effervescent melodic quality which was concertised in a masterly flow of ideas which were delivered with a unique sense of alacrity, aided by one of the most pliable and dextrous voices ever heard in living memory in this land.
