Kanday Utay...
kanday utay....utay..kanday utay.. khadi ho..mainu teriyan udeekan kaday ute.. kanday utay mehamam ve main te kado di khadi... dil wich shounq milan da.. haneri ishq di chadi......
i have been standing on the bank of this pond for a long long time.....and i am expecting ur return sumtime soon.....oh dear beloved i have been waiting here with a hope of meeting u. the desire to see u is blooming in my heart.....and the sandstrom of love is blowing and i am still waiting for ur return....!
teri deed da chah... teri deed da chah...... aj waqt neza.....nikle mera saans takde takde... teri deed da chah , aj waqat naza... nikale mera saan takde takde... mere beparhvahh hun aa vi ja... mere be parvahh hun aa vi ja... thak gi hain nighaa takde takde... o mainu teriyan udeeka kanday utay.. mainu teriyan udeeka kanday utay..... kanday utay meharmaa vey main te kado di khadi....
i have a strong desire to see ur face........and the time is slowly slipping away from my hands....my breaths are dimming by the endless wait for u....!! oh dear love u are so unaware of my agony so now come and have a look all by urself........how my eyes have stopped moving from the road of ur return....!! i am tired by this wait and yet i know i have to keep standing on this bank and look at this dead road which wud be alighted when u wud come back...... so i am waiting for u with all the hopes i can muster...!!!
ishq aap vi awallah, aide kaam vi awallehe... jide pesh pai janda.. khaak chaddda na palle... hain te bahut buri haneri ishaq di chaddi... bas bahut buri haneri ishaq di....
the love is unique and so are those who fell in this depthless sea....once sumbody is effected by its virus..,he can never hope to recover...love takes away everything, peace, rest, silence, and it makes u lonely amid the crowd..........it doesn't leave anything for u...and consumed al u possess in its passion. this strom of love is indeed aweful and when its on its zeinth it doesn't spare anyone from its destruction..............!!
aag da darun mee te paani.. ishq da darru keda... aag da darun mee te paani... ishq da darun keda...... aag te saade takhte-kane.. ishq saade dil mera... bas bahut buri haneri ishq di... bahut buri haneri ishq di chadi.. dil wich shaounq milan da.. haneri ishq di chadi..
though there is so much similarities between love and fire yet fire is manageable.....u can cease it with rain and water... but who and what can cease the fire of love..., fire burn wood and bamboos but this fire of love burns my heart evrey minute... so this strom of love is destructive and its taking away all the paece i have in my life... but i still hope to see u and there fore waiting here for u to return....!!
mainu mout toh dara ke ghadya muh na tu mod.... main ta neeti hain namaz.. meri neet na tu todd.. jind yaar de havale.. aankh jide naal ladi.... kanday utay meharmaa vey.. main te kado di khadi.... kanday utay.. kanday utay.......!!!
oh beloved don't scare me with death...becoz the one who walk on the path of love is not afraid of dying....,i have made love my prayer and i pray day and night..! now don't waste all that love and prayer by delaying ur return.....!! i have devoted my life to u....and now its upto u to save me or kill me with ur sepra
