peer agreement (net): +1जागे रात सुहानी/The pleasant night keeps awake Explanation: Not needed -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-12-17 18:02:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- जागी रात को नींद सुहानी सुहानी is a completely different sentence. Here the sleep is pleasant, and the night is awake. Repetition of सुहानी is just for the rhyme. Awake night can mean anything: a refulgent night, a night full of activity, and so on. There can be hundreds of interpretations of "awake" night. For example, Stars keep awake and marching during the night, while we are asleep. Also while there is night in one part of the globe, there is day in another part, morning in another, noon in yet another part, and so forth. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2008-12-18 01:12:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- With the context now clear, thanks to Lalit Sati Ji, the sentence can be translated as, "The sweet sleep ended/ fleeted [abruptly] in the dead of night.", or "The sweet sleep ended/ fleeted [abruptly] during the night." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2008-12-18 01:16:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In Hindi the sentence जागी रात को नींद सुहानी सुहानी can be re-written as सुहानी सुहानी नींद रात को जागी or सुहानी नींद रात को जागी or रात को सुहानी सुहानी नींद जागी or रात के समय बड़ी सुहानी नींद जागी |
