They say Noorie drowned in the river
Some say she committed suicide
What do you think, Holy One?
Allah knows the one who has transgressed the laws of nature
Who?
Allah knows
What is to happen now?
Nature takes her revenge. People may forget. It may all be forgotten
But Nature works on... quietly, in some form or the other
And when time has run its course,
Nature in all her fury, takes her prey
Noorie was so beautiful. - Innocent, unbeguiled, quiet
People loved to watch her. - To touch her, to talk to her
She was a gift of nature, a gift of the river
that flows past her village
As bright as the snow, as pure
Noorie was the soul of our valleys, she gave fragrance to the pines
The sinners that they are, they only lusted
They do not see the fires that simmer within
This too is nature at play
Come inside, Yusuf. - Come, sit by the fires for a while
It's very chilly out here. You might catch a cold
The chill, one would have to feel. My feelings are stilled forever
And my soul... what of the chill?
What are you doing here?
You were talking about Noorie. I thought I'd listen to you speak
How did you know we're discussing Noorie?
The winds you've never spoken to, nor heard
The winds that blow in Spring... this wind is so pure. It hides nothing
Now he's going to stand in front of Noorie's house; he'll wait and wait
"Come to me"
"My love"
"Come into my heart"
"Let me slake my thirsting heart"
"This bright, mellow morning"
"The light touches my soul"
"It asks me softly"
"Do you know?"
"Who is in your heart?"
"Come to me"
"Come into my heart, and tell me"
"The pain is so sweet"
"Desire is aroused"
"I thirst for love I'm possessed"
"I can think no more"
"Come to me"
"Come into my heart Arouse my passions"
"The beautiful evening"
"Carries your fragrance"
"When I see flowers blossoming"
"I think of you"
"Come to me"
"Come into my heart Fill me with fire"
I told you to come and meet my father, like a gentleman
I'm talking about seeing you.
And you want me to see your father!
To see me, you must see my father first. Understand?
But the two of them are like bodyguards
...your father and your pet Khairoo
If I make good money today, I'll buy lots of meat for you
You should've been a rich man's pet
Not a poor man's pet
Hey Lala! So you aren't dead yet!
Why, what's your interest?
My turn will come only after each...
...and everyone else in this village is dead
Till then, I'll guard my wealth like a serpent!
Your eyes would pop out if a walnut dropped on your head
Why did God give me a usurer for a childhood friend?
And yet, I'm the one who stands to lose
God willing, if you die, I'll still have to pay for your funeral
Is that wood for sale? - No
It's meant for your funeral pyre. - How much for?
Three Rupees. - 3 Rupees for that wood? I'll pay one
Lala, will you take along your money after you die?
Stop blabbering. 2 Rupees. Just because you're a friend
Take it, or I leave. - All right, I'll take it
Madcap, I brought it for you. - Then I won't pay you 2 Rupees
Put it down here
Two Rupees. Keep it. You've earned it
If at all Lala, in the good deeds of your daughter-in-law...
your sins may be washed. - About your dog!
Have you been teaching him too, how to snatch what he can from me
Don't you blame a mutt
May Allah forgive you - And may Allah strike you down
Come on, Khairoo. - Wait Uncle
I'll give you some sugar. - You're asking for curses
Keep it. Noorie will need it for tea. - My enemy! Right in my backyard!
I've been teaching her nothing! - That's expected from you
It's for free! Enjoy it!
The sugar is gone. Even the bowl! Go on, give everything away!
Finish eating and get to work! - Yes, I'm going
So you're here
You're very lucky...
to have entered Bashir Khan's dreams!
The girl Bashir sets his eyes on...
becomes the gem of his boudoir!
What are you looking for there? Come here
Where are you? - Right in front of your eyes
Strange! You vanish right in front of my eyes!
That's why I tell you, love isn't for cowards
If you come home, my father won't hang you for it
I guess I will have to screw up my courage and face your father
But when?
Now that I can't put it off any longer...
I'll do it right tomorrow. I'll dress for the occasion
Passed the first test
Now the second. Allah help me!
Salaam aleikum, Uncle
Waleikum salaam
Uncle I...
I'm Fakir Mohammad's son
Which Fakir Mohammad?
Carpenter
We used to live by the river
You had him make your bed ...Fakir Mohammad
But he's dead, isn't he? - But I'm alive
That I can see
Sit
I work in Bashir Khan's factory
That scoundrel?
I only work for him
What brings you here?
What's wrong with you? Why don't you speak?
I'll come back later
Strange fellow
Do you know who that fellow is?
He told you his name. Yusuf. - Oh yes. Why was he here?
To meet you, perhaps. - But why?
How would I know?
Where does he live? - By the river
He told you so. He's Fakir Mohammad's son
Where does he work? - Abba! Didn't you hear?
He works in Bashir Khan's factory. - But...
Why did he come here?
Do you know him?
Well he is...
What did he say his name was? - Yusuf, son of Fakir Mohammad
He lives by the river, and he works for a living
Nice fellow. I approve
I'm an old foggy!
What happened? Why are you moping? - Should I be dancing?
Thanks for calling me over and making me look like a fool
What is the matter? - What indeed!
First that dear brother of yours Khairoo... he frisks me
As if I was packing a gun! After he's done with me...
it's your Abba (Father), quizzing me like a schoolmaster!
You were aghast
He asked you why you had come. And not a word from you!
Would you rather that I sang? - Why not? I love songs
I don't know about Khairoo. - Are you here to finish the joke?
I saw you moping. I thought I'd ask
I'm fine, and I wish you well!
Nice to know
What more?
The wound is still raw. Don't rub it in!
And maybe, you could tell me about yourself
I will be happy
I have received your letter.
And I know what you're going through
I pray to Allah that you be happy, and may you find peace
Thank you for your offer of peace and happiness
In reply, let me tell you that sentiment is no good
I do not seek your sympathies. I need your love
In this matter, I have to tell you that Abba said,
"Nice boy. I approve"
What?
"I'm not far away"
"I'm with you"
"Forever, I'm yours"
"I have only to look at you"
"You bring me good luck"
Khan, you've lost Noorie
In a few days, she's going to marry Yusuf
This is giving you a bad name. She's so pretty!
One look at her, and a man will even forget his parents!
Why don't you abduct her? - Once you're done with her...
she's going to be yours all your life.
Even a year or two in prison...
isn't too much a price to pay. - I'd be willing to serve 7 years!
But for Faulad Khan's sake, we won't even look at her
That bastard hasn't married her yet. - Not yet. But will
He won't. If not Faulad Khan, let the dogs have her
Who is she? - Gulam Nabi's daughter
Gulam Nabi, tell me how are you? - It's all the grace of Allah
How long will you pull on with only Allah's grace?
How about giving Bashir Khan a chance?
It is by His grace that I live. I am as He will have me
I too am Allah's servant.
Will your God be angered if I were to help you?
I am not helpless enough to seek a man's mercy
Gulam Nabi, why get irked? I'm talking about your own good
Your daughter is young. I hear she is very beautiful
Do not forget me. I may be of help
That pauper talked back at me!
And why not? That bastard has such a pretty daughter!
I'm no Bashir Khan unless I abduct her!
Make no mistake!
Eat something as piping hot, and you'll scald your tongue
He's Lala's friend too. This might prove costly
Caught you! I've been expecting you for sometime!
Big fish always eat small fish - Big fish! You call me big fish?
I could chew you alive! - All right. You have an upper hand
And when will you have the upper hand? After you're dead?
For the poor, it's always after one has died
But every act will be accounted for.
Talk sense.
You're hard-pressed to even find food.
What do you expect in that other world? Sweets to eat?
To each his own conscience, Lala. - Don't drag conscience into deals!
You need money?
How much?
One thousand
Have you ever seen a thousand together?
To tell you the truth, never
Your land is already mortgaged with me.
Do you have any gold? - No.
Any house? - Yes, I have my house
That house is just a pile of dirt!
It'd fetch a hundred at most!
How will you pay the rest 900? - Lend it to me on interest
I'll sign on anything. - And what do I do with paper? Eat it?
Tell me, why do you need the money?
Are you marrying again? - Goodness!
I'd never commit a sin at this age!
Noorie is grown up. And Noorie is all I have
Lala, I'm getting her married
You know this village is full of devils
I want to get over with this as soon as I can
And you want a thousand for it? What use is 1,000? Take 2,000
You have to pay for clothes, jewellery and the lunch.
How will you make do with a thousand?
But I still have to pay you back
I'll have to work all my life, to pay it back
How much longer do you have to live? For you, it's today or tomorrow
We'll settle our accounts in the next world
Now get lost and prepare for Noorie's wedding. Get going
Noorie is as much my child as she is yours
Let's marry her off in style
If not yours, you have to take care of my dignity
Do you know how pretty you are?
Can you tell me?
Do you know how nice you are?
Can you tell me?
You've made life difficult for every man in the village
Do you like me? - Very much
For me, that's enough
How long do you need to craft the jewellery?
A fortnight or so. - Don't you have something ready?
How can I go home empty-handed? - All these belong to others
Yes, I have these anklets. - Let me see
Pretty. I'll take them. - All right
If it's not an exact fit, I'll have it altered later
Consider my shop yours
Khairoo, you're coming with me, to Bhabhi's aren't you?
Bhabhi is so nice.
If you don't come with me, I won't talk to you
Come on, I'm scared.
The ironsmith's son Faulad Khan teases me
Today, Allah would give me anything!
Save me... save me...
Did you ask for me? - Welcome, Gulam Nabi. Sit
Be seated
The other day you got irked for no reason
I did not mean anything ill. After all, I live in this village too
This is where I will live all my life
I have lots of property, and money. I'm thinking about getting married
What has that to do with me? - You don't understand?
I want to marry Noorie
I maybe poor. But I am a honorable man
The whole world knows what you're about
If you ever mention Noorie again, I'll kill you!
Who is it?
Come in. The door is open
What have you been up to? Hiding your riches?
Not riches. But I do have a diamond I'm trying to hide
What do you take me for? Some thief? - Thief? You're a bandit!
No knowing when you might elope!
Actually, I've been trying to steal something
But I need your help. - Meaning?
I'm getting married.
And I have no relative
I brought along a ring. Will you give it to Noorie?
It's beautiful
Don't you worry. I'll give it to her
Look! That's Lala's daughter-in-law
Uncle! The Lala's daughter-in-law is coming to your house
Coming to my house?
Give us a ladder. We're coming in
Greetings, Uncle Nabi. - Lord be with you
Greetings. Uncle. - Bless you.
Yusuf is from our village. To us, he's like a son, a brother
And I'm a relative to both sides. Noorie calls me her sister-in-law
I have always been grateful to your family
I may be the moneylender's daughter-in-law
But I haven't come here to collect
I'm here to ask for Noorie. To be my daughter-in-law
You come to a pauper with gifts. What can I give you in return?
What better a gift than a beautiful daughter?
May I see the bride?
Yusuf is a lucky man
"I swear"
"Your friends are happy"
"It's your love..."
"that has drawn your lady towards you"
"Everyone held their breath"
"And some hearts have burnt"
"Everywhere she went"
"And your lover walked into your embrace"
"Now that means"
"Let lovers be"
"Let lovers be like them"
"A loving heart has found another"
"Love has been requited"
"Eyes have met"
"And the heartbeats match"
"Today, love has been given a place of pride"
"He has found a beautiful bride"
"She is bound to give in"
"She is bound to give him everything she has"
"In love, one rose makes a garden"
"One rose suffices"
"Let lovers be..."
"May they have a heart..."
"No. Let lovers be like this"
"May lovers..."
"May lovers be like them"
"May they have a heart like she has"
"The one who sighs is no lover"
"He who romances from a distance is no beloved either"
"He who suffers in silence is no lover"
"He who fears the world is no beloved"
"To take on the world is a matter of pride for men"
"To fall in love is for the young and able men"
"We are in love; may there be no disgrace"
"May we not lose our love"
"May lovers..."
"May women..."
"May lovers be like us"
"May women be like us"
"Like the legendary lovers... may they be like them"
"Like the legendary women in love... may they be like them"
"It's you we love" "We are true lovers"
"Put us to test; we are love itself"
"To lay down our lives we are forever ready"
"We are no outsiders; we share your problems"
"Women awaken the magic"
"And make men in love forget their friends"
"Love is intoxicating"
"May men be in love... - And also remember their friends"
"And also remember their friends"
"Lovers be..."
"Women be..."
"May lovers be like him"
"May women have a heart like hers"
"May lovers be like him"
"May women have a heart like hers"
Fabulous! What a ploy! I could kiss your feet!
Fabulous!
So are you getting married? When? - Not unless you can come
That's true. Say what, Faulad? - Without you, it shouldn't be!
Say, how about celebrating? - Whenever you say
Make it fast, lest it becomes stale
Accountant... - Yes boss?
Yusuf is getting married. His expenses are bound to increase
Give him a raise. A hundred. - Very well
Go on, Yusuf
Well, Faulad? - You're great!
Eat a sweet! - Why?
After the engagement, my luck is changing!
Bashir Khan has given me a raise! - I told you!
Noorie is going to bring you much happiness!
I'm going to set their lives on fire!
Before the wedding she is going to be devastated, scarred, tainted!
What's on your mind? - That bastard Gulam Nabi dies
And not a soul will know!
Mister Khairoo, get up. Would you like some tea?
Time to get to work. Get up. You've had enough of sleep
Even Abba is ready
Here's your tea. But not to hurry. The tea is still warm
Enough now. You're getting greedier day by day. Off you go to work
Bye Abba
Khairoo, stay with Abba. I hear you're straying always
Who is it? It's me, Yusuf.
Abba isn't at home
Is it something important?
I'm here to see you
Meeting before the wedding is taboo
All right, I'm leaving
Come inside. If anyone sees you, I'll get a bad name
Where are you?
What is it?
Can't I see you?
No
I just want to take a look at you
Why just a look? - Last night, in a dream...
I saw you vanishing in a thick cloud of winter fog...
I was screaming for you...
...and you were laughing and then you vanished
Lies! - What do you mean?
You just made up a story to come and see me
I'm telling you the truth! - I won't accept
How am I to convince you? - Try to find some other excuse
Tell me, are you all right? - Perfectly!
You're alive, aren't you? - And talking to you!
I'm no ghost! If you don't believe me, see for yourself
That's your hand, isn't it? - Ghosts don't have arms
Even if they have, you can't see them
Now I know! That was your hand! - You hypocrite!
And I also know that you're perfectly all right!
Liar! Goodbye
When is the next lame excuse coming? - This was no lame excuse!
Go and call Noorie
Where's Abba? Tell me, where's Abba?
How come you're here alone?
Take me along. Hurry
Have the consignment sent. His men came asking for it thrice
Yusuf, something has happened to Abba! Khairoo came home alone!
Please come with me!
Tell the boss I'll be back
I'm responsible for Gulam Nabi's death.
I didn't know I have a black tongue
What I said turns out to be true!
Accountant... - Yes?
Give me the papers to Gulam Nabi's lands
He wished to be buried on his land. But the land is mortgaged with me
My friend, I give you back your land
Khairoo, come out
Come out Khairoo
Khairoo, come out!
Khairoo, come here
Khairoo, come out!
Will you leave me alone, Khairoo?
You want to be buried with Abba?
Abba has left me. Will you leave me too?
Abba didn't care for me. He left me. Will you leave too?
Human beings do not know what relationships are
Will you betray me too?
For a while, I want to go away on a pilgrimage
I feel devastated. Forty years of friendship.
Forty years in happiness, in sorrow, during the weddings, in mourning
Now Gulam Nabi is gone! A lifetime of friendship gone!
Love, how about something exciting? - Spare me a breath, will you?
The evening has just begun! Are you panting already?
What about the rest of the night?
Khan, you seem to be enjoying my inconveniences
As for me, I do my bit of hard work
Hard enough to work up a few kudos for me?
For which I pay a price. A fair price
Who can pay a woman for her sorrows?
What of me? I dance to your tune! I pine for you! I'd die for you!
And at heart, you wish to ruin me!
Would you rather that I refused you?
Even if I were to escape you, I'd be someone else's prey
So I've decided, I'd rather die for your sake!
"If you do not know how to appreciate"
"My beauty will go waste"
"A thirst lurks under the shadows of my dark tresses"
"How long will I hide the fire that burns in my heart?"
"Wonderful nights I waste lying awake"
"You I have loved"
"Like glass on stone I am shattered"
"Oh, I was so naive"
"I have broken my dancing bells"
"With my henna-ed hands folded I beg to be forgiven"
"But you will not listen"
Didn't Gulam Nabi order some jewellery from you?
Yes, it's been lying ready for days. I was about to deliver it to him
My condolences
That fool was a very honest man
Everyone in the village knows about your friendship
I so deeply regret his death.
A dear old friend passes away...
and all one can do is mourn him.
Anyway, how much does he owe you?
Let's forget it. - No, the transaction must be completed
The bill is for 900. He gave me 500
Here you are. Pack the ornaments
Gulam Nabi, what you did wasn't right
You turned out to be a coward!
You took to death, and now you rest peacefully in your grave
You cheat!
If you wanted to go away like this, why did you make friends with me?
Did you find no one else in the village to make a friend?
You fool! You should've married your daughter off before dying!
Who? - It's me, Lala
Come dear, sit beside me
You know, I always regarded Gulam Nabi as my own brother
Now my brother has left me forever
The poor fellow couldn't even have his last wish
No, my dear!
Till I am alive, I won't let you miss your father!
I'll make all his dreams come true. Don't you worry
Look, your Abba has left all this jewellery for your wedding
If you ever need anything at all, don't hesitate to come to me
Not to be ashamed at all
Now be brave, my child
I cannot bear to see you cry Hush my dear, hush!
You have given me such lovely jewellery, Abba!
You loved me so much! You have given me so much!
You were so happy about my wedding! Then, why did you go away?
You should've seen how I look in these
Why did you leave, Abba? Why did you leave me, Abba?
Yes Yusuf, what is the matter?
How can Noorie live all alone? She has no one
Yes, she's all alone, poor thing. She used to come here earlier
Now she doesn't even come here. At this rate, she's going to die!
I swear by Allah, I'm not in a hurry about getting married
I can understand your concern, Yusuf
She listens to you. - I will visit her
I'll look after her
Who?
Your Bhabhi (Bhabhi = sister-in-law)
My Abba! I'm all alone, Bhabhi! I have no one!
Hush you foolish girl, hush! You have me
Abba isn't coming back, is he?
Look at the state he's in
Poor thing, he's orphaned
He used to start barking at mealtimes.
Now he keeps lying like he's dead
The dead do not return. - But the living can die
And then, how would life go on? - I don't want it to
One has to live on, even if one hates to live
It is in no one's hands And time buries the wounds
Have courage
I cannot bear to see you like this
Even Yusuf is so worried for you
It's very difficult for a woman to live alone
I have promised Yusuf to cheer you up
Do what you want, Bhabhi. I have no one now
Whatever way you want me to live... I will
Noorie, we aren't your enemies
Everyone loves you ...cares for you
I'll tell Yusuf
Yusuf has to be taken care of
Now that Gulam Nabi has gone to Allah,
Yusuf stands between me and Noorie
He must be removed. - But how?
Beat him black and blue. - Not that easy
If the villagers get to know... - Not one ear gets to hear this!
In the forest, when he is on his way back from work... then!
We'll kill him, and we'll bury him!
Can't you watch your step?
Why do you have to cross my path? - Does your father own this place?
No! You are the one whose father owns this place! But he's dead
Did he will it to you before he died?
What's your problem? - You want to live in this village?
Yes, I wish to live a while longer. - Then forget Noorie
Are you listening? Even if you marry her...
you won't be able to match up to her
Make a promise
Never to speak Noorie's name with your filthy tongue!
Whenever you mention Noorie... you will be respectful
Don't you even think about Noorie!
I mentioned you, and he used foul language...
on your mother and your sister!
It's going to be a shame. If you can't get your hands on that girl
Now her father is no more
I've ended up with broken ribs, for your sake. For nothing!
Will you take on everyone for my sake? - Everyone who thinks ill of you
If need be, I'll take on the whole village, and even God!
Love me so much, and I won't be able to live, and I won't be able to die
I'll love you till you find that life itself lies at your feet
And death will be unbecoming of you
And what of your own life? What have you chosen for yourself?
Only one name Noorie
Welcome
There's some important work. That's why I called you
Tell me. - There's a problem
I'm telling you because I trust you. - Sure
You know Tekchand?
He turns out to be a fraud
I've written him so many letters. But he refuses to pay up
Can you go to the cantonment for a few days?
I know, you're much taken up with your wedding
But it's urgent. Without the money, how will I pay the lumberjacks?
Do me this favor. - If you insist...
If you have to stay back for a couple of days, do stay over
Make sure you bring the money
Keep this
Five hundred. A gift for your wedding
You're getting married. Buy something for your wife
Thanks!
I'll be back in a couple of days
I haven't the heart to leave you alone
Then don't go
On the job, I have to obey the boss
Without you, this village will be as empty as a desert
You're making this difficult for me. I'll be away for only a couple of days
Very well, go
I'll make do with my dreams of you
Would you like anything from the cantonment?
Get me whatever you like
Now which was that hand I kissed?
Oh yes!
Look, it's blushing like a rose! You're so fragile
And in time, another rose will bud
Last bus to the Cantonment
Hurry up
Move it
I've brought you your bride's trousseau
Nice?
I'm your sister. And I'm also your friend
You know, when I was given mine...
I locked myself in, and I caressed my dress
It was as if, I could touch my childhood dreams
May God keep you happy. Make a home, raise a family
See you
Make sure you lock yourself in once I'm gone
"Someone comes in stealing"
"Stealthily..."
"so that no one sees him"
"And he gives me so many dreams"
"He looks into my eyes"
"But what does he seek?"
"What am I to tell him?"
"I feel like laughing... I don't know what to say"
"Right into my heart he gazes"
"I can scarce breathe"
"Sweet nothings"
"Hold me spellbound"
"I am lost"
"He makes me do whatever he wants"
"When he kisses me my heart is aflutter"
"In ecstasy, my eyes are shut"
"When I think of it"
"Such a venom he has bitten me with"
"I hope his embrace doesn't kill me"
"My heart pounds"
"I am intoxicated"
It's so cold! And it's raining incessantly
Bring Noorie over tomorrow. Tomorrow morning
A girl mustn't live all alone
Keep her with you till she gets married
Leave me!
Noorie is dead!
Someone killed her and threw her into the river!
What are you saying?
Some people are even saying that she committed suicide
What nonsense!
Everyone at the village is there beside the river.
Her dog is staring at the river and baying
How could this happen?
First the father, then the daughter. Strange are the ways of God
I am moving now...
God bless you
Take care of Noorie's house. Look after Khairoo
Hello, Lala! Where are you off to?
Where have you been?
To the cantonment. On Bashir's business
I liked a few things. So I bought these
What do you think of this jewellery?
What happened?
Son, how am I to tell you this?
What is the matter?
Something has gone terribly wrong.
You must have courage
I don't understand...
Noorie is no more
No more? - She drowned herself in the river
How could this happen?
How come she killed herself?
Her life wasn't hers only
How could she just die?
How could she kill herself?
"Allah"
"His ways are strange"
"Only He knows"
"Allah knows"
"Humans only laugh and cry"
"Where we come from, where we go..."
"why do those who leave never return?"
"Only He knows"
"Allah knows"
"You are The Merciful, The Benefactor"
"You are The Preservator The Creator"
"Commend yourself to Him"
"For only He knows"
"Allah knows"
"He gives pain, He brings pleasure"
"If He takes away, then He also gives"
"Many are the facets"
"Only He knows"
"Allah knows"
"First, He gives the sinner a long rope"
"Then He avenges the ones who were victimized"
"Before Him..."
"bow your heads"
"For only He knows"
"Allah knows"
Do you know how pretty you are?
Can you tell me?
Do you know how nice you are?
Can you tell me?
You've made life difficult for every man in the village
Do you like me? - Very much
For me, that's enough
Will I be able to live without you? I don't believe I can...
Why are you screaming in the middle of the night?
What has come over you? - What do you mean?
What nonsense is this? - You just shot your own dog
Noorie's dog was outside, baying. Your "Tiger" was giving it chase
And you shot him
Do you know where Faulad lives? - Yes
Ask him to come and see me tomorrow morning
Are you all right? - What's wrong with me?
Looks like... - Looks like what?
Your face is dry, pallid. Tell me, should I call a doctor?
No need for a doctor! Go away. Tell Faulad to see me in the morning
Very well
Faulad... welcome!
Sit
Faulad, there's a job
I'd lay down my life for it!
For a few days, I've been a bit superstitious
Superstitious? - That dog...
Noorie's! - How do you know?
The whole village is talking about it. It has gone mad
It's roaming the lanes and the alleys, as if it is searching for someone
Searching?
For whom? - God knows
Some say, dogs can see spirits and they even see the Angel of Death...
when it arrives to take someone. That's why they bay
Angel of Death? - People say that...
a dog baying at night means that someone is about to die
Is that so?
But... what is the matter?
Last night, that dog was standing outside my house and baying
God forbid... - I'm not afraid or anything
But last night it ruined my sleep
Why did it come to your house?
God only knows!
Why don't you just kill the dog?
Can it be killed? - Why not? It's only a dog!
Just buy some meat from the butcher and poison it. He's going to eat it
And that's about the end of it
Will it be done today?
Why today? Right now! I'm off to buy meat
When they find him, he'll be a carcass
I'll have the carcass thrown in the water
For all the tall talk, you can't do as little!
Had it been a tiger or a cheetah, I could understand
It's just a mad, half-dead dog! And you can't even kill it!
What could I do? He sniffed at it, and he slunk away
The devil has gotten him! - What?!
Yes! I've heard about it.
The Satan possesses animals, and hunts his prey
Prey... what prey?
How would I know? A dog refuses meat! Now, has that ever happened?
And that too, a dog who has been hungry for days
What nonsense are you talking?!
This is just a story you've dreamt up!
If he won't eat, stone him to death! Chase him out of the village!
Pay the lads in the village. Get them to kill it!
It's a mad dog! It might bite someone!
Keep it. Spend what you want
I don't want any more excuses
Stop it! What are you fellows doing? Aren't you ashamed?
You're stoning an innocent mutt! Have you no sympathy, no mercy?
Are you not even afraid of God's punishment?
Is he not God's creation?
Is it humane to kill this dog?
Go, drown yourselves!
Go, drown yourselves in shame!
The dead never return, Khairoo
Human that I am, I have forgotten her
But you the beast... you're still mourning her
Is there something you know?
Is there a secret that's killing you?
You've stayed hungry, thirsty
You're stoned, and yet you do not utter a sound
Forget, Khairoo
"I'm not far away"
"I'm with you"
"Forever, I'm yours"
"I have only to look at you"
"You bring me good luck"
"Come to me"
"Come into my heart Arouse my passions"
Noorie! She has been found!
Noorie has been found!
What nonsense! Have you gone mad? - Really! Noorie has been found!
It's been ages since she died! Even her corpse wasn't found!
They've found it! By the river. The whole village is headed there
And she doesn't look like she's dead!
It's as if Noorie is alive, smiling!
Like an immaculate soul. The entire village is worked up
They're dying to solve the murder!
As soon as they get to know
they're going to tear the murderer to pieces!
I'd rather get lost
Else, I might end up with a broken head for nothing!
I've had nothing to do with this! Goodbye, Khan
It's been so many days since I saw you
I searched everywhere, I've been looking for you
Where have you been? You left me all alone
You left me all alone and you went away
It's all over now
Even if I were to have lived, what life would it have been?
Without love, how could I have lived?
Without Noorie, how can I live?
"Why do those who leave never return?"
"Only He knows"
"Allah knows"
