Lyrics: Garry Sandhu, Sultaan
Some people work 9-5
Some people work night shifts
I work all shifts
I represents the Hustles
Saukha nahio aaya jatt,
Tageya te rollie te,
Movie ban jave je,
Kitab kitte kholi te.
Boy hasn’t come easily
From rags to riches
A movie will be made
If the book (of my life) opened
Baki gallan chado hunn,
Jatt di chadayi ae,
Baki gallan chado hunn,
Jatt di chadayi ae.
Leave everything else, now
Boy is famous
Leave everything else, now
Boy is famous
Rull taa gaye aa,
Par chass badi aayai ae,
Rull taa gaye aa,
Par chass badi aayai ae.
We’ve got ruined
But also enjoyed a lot
We’ve got ruined
But also enjoyed a lot
Kisse toh naa bajje,
Jehdi bean main bajayi ae,
Kisse toh naa bajje,
Jehdi bean main bajayi ae.
No one can play it
The flute I’ve played
No one can play it
The flute I’ve played
I don’t believe in talent
I’m here because I worked hard my whole life
Without that work no one in this world
Would know who I am, except my family
Thodi jehi zameen si
Wadde mere dream si,
Neele neele baale sige chatta de,
There was little land
But my dreams were big
The grass on the roof was blue
Mehnat main kari koi chust chalaki naa,
Chaale mere dasde aa hathan de,
Oh chaale mere dasde aa hathan de.
I hustled hard, not played any tricks
The blisters of my hand tell it
Oh, the blisters of my hand tell it
Maa ne sikhaya rahi haq sach te,
Sidko naa dauli bhave turri kanch te,
Taur naal khavi chahe do rotiyan,
Garry sandhu putt rahi bach bach ke.
My mother taught me to always follow the path of truth
Don’t give up your principles, even if you have to walk through the glass path
Eat with respect, even if it is just two chapattis
Garry, my son, stay cautious
Oh karde trend set,
Aisi koti payi ae.
Sets the trend
Such pullover I’m wearing
Rull taa gaye aa,
Par chass badi aayai ae,
Rull taa gaye aa,
Par chass badi aayai ae.
We’ve got ruined
But also enjoyed a lot
We’ve got ruined
But also enjoyed a lot
Kisse toh naa bajje,
Jehdi bean main bajayi ae,
Kisse toh naa bajje,
Jehdi bean main bajayi ae.
No one can play it
The flute I’ve played
No one can play it
The flute I’ve played
Pindan de si jaye kol duniya te chaye,
Raah turre naa kisse de pind apne banaye,
Lipeya ghara cho uth kothiyan ch aaye,
Sadane wale nu koi ki samjhaye.
Born in village, took over the whole world
Never walked on someone else’s path, made our own path
From mud house we came to brick houses
To someone who is jealous, how can one explain
Lagge rahe bhave jinne vi si daane,
Mithe kar kar mane ohde bhane,
Gallan karde jo umaro niyane,
Jihde utte beete ohhi jane.
We kept going on, no matter how hard it was
We gladly accepted god’s will
They are making talks, those who are younger in age
Only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches
Sahi gaya zindagi ch laundi rahi yaarian,
Harde hunde ne vi pugaiyan sadda yaarian,
Paindi si snow ch naa Taira utte chadiyan,
Ferr jaake shuru kittiya main geetkariyan.
We kept going in life, friends kept betraying me
Even after losing, I maintained friendship
It was snowing, I chained the tires of my car
Then I started writing songs
Zindagi di daud ch hnereya de daur wich,
Kalle mainu dasde aa tare ni,
Vision clean aa chand te zameen,
Paune ambaran te jatt ne chobare ni.
In the race of life, in the era of darkness
I see the stars alone
Vision is clean, land on the moon
Boy wanna built a house in the sky
Oh roko na jajhaj mainu chad lain do,
Badaln di hiq wich bad lain do,
Chandri gareebi kitte mudd aave naa,
Khull ke naseeba naal lad lain do.
Don’t stop me, let me catch the flight
Let me be among the clouds
The evil poverty shall not return back
Let me fight with my destiny
Oh time mera dasse, Jehdi gutt tere layi ae.
It tells my time, the watch which you are wearing on your wrist
Rull taa gaye aa,
Par chass badi aayai ae,
Rull taa gaye aa,
Par chass badi aayai ae.
We’ve got ruined
But also enjoyed a lot
We’ve got ruined
But also enjoyed a lot
Kisse toh naa bajje,
Jehdi bean main bajayi ae,
Kisse toh naa bajje,
Jehdi bean main bajayi ae.
No one can play it
The flute I’ve played
No one can play it
The flute I’ve played
