Translation of the song Punjabi Tappe artist Jagjit Singh

Kothe te aa mahiya,

Come to the terrace, would you? My Love,

Milna taa millege,

If you wish to meet, that is?!

Nai to khasmaa nu kha mahiya,

You can get lost if you don't..1

Ke leyna hai mitra to,

I would certainly be more glad seeing you than my friends,

Milne to aa jawa,

But there is a problem,

Daar lagta hai chiitra to,

I am afraid, if caught, I would be trashed. So, I won't.2

Tusi kale kale ho,

You are very mean!

Kuch tee sharam karo,

Have some shame,

Dhiya putra wale ho,

You have daughters and sons.3

Aye sare dand paye kade ne,

All of my teeth have fallen now,

Asi taanu chunge lagde,

You still do like me, don't you?

Te sade dhiya put wadhde ne,

Even when our kids distrub you a lot?4

Ithe pyaar di puch koi na,

Huh! There isn't much bother for love here.

Tere nail nayui boolna,

Go! I won't talk to you.

Tere muh te much koi na,

You don't even have a moustache!5

Maja pyaar da chak langa,

Even I would like to taste a little love,

Je tera hukm hoye,

I you'd order,

Meh to dadi wi rakh langa

I would even keep a beard.6

Bage which aaya kaaro,

Would you come to the garden, Please!

Jado usii so jayye,

While I sleep,

Tusi makhiya udaya karo,

Would you mind keeping the flies away?7

Tusi rooj nahaya kaaro,

Would you mind bathing daily?

Makhiya to darde ho,

If you are so irritated by flies,

Gud thoda khaya karo

You should also have a little jaggery.8

Eet pyaar di pawage,

And now that we have found one another,

Hum asi mil gaye ha,

We will live happily together,

Geet pyaar de gawa ge

And sings songs of love for one another.
