Jatta Ve – Lyrics Meaning in English – Mankirt Aulakh, Kamal Khangura
Singer: Mankirt Aulakh
Music: RB Khera
Lyrics: Happy Dala
Bahane je banauna rehna door jaan de
Tainu pata nahio jatti tera kinna kardi
Ho vailiyan de wali teri taur dekh ke
Pind di madeer saari gallan kardi
You keep making excuses to keep distance
You don’t realize how much the girl does (cares) for you
Seeing your punk (gunda) style
The whole city talks about you
Eh jo kaagzi ne sher aivein ban’de daler
Aake kadd de tu saareyan de shakk jatta ve
These paper lions who roam around like a boss
Come, clear their doubts and show them their right place
Ho je tu banke parhauna kadon pind sadde auna
Kadon maapeyan to mangu mera hath jatta ve x(2)
When will you visit my village as a groom
When are you going to ask my hand for marriage from my mom-dad, oh boy
Panj veer mere dada jaildar hundeya
Dinde aa mere to jaan vaar mundeya
Laddan naal paali ve main dhee maapeyan di
Sab kujh baithi taithon haar mundeya
Laddan naal paali ve main dhee maapeyan di
Sab kujh baithi taithon haar mundeya
My 5 brothers and my grandfather are jailors
They throw their lives on me (ready to do anything for me)
I’ve grown up in lots of love from mom dad
Still I’ve lost everything on you, boy
I’ve grown up in lots of love from mom dad
Still I’ve lost everything on you, boy
Je koyi hor teri hoyi maithon bura nahio koyi
Hunn aina taan jataungi main hakk jatta ve
If anyone else becomes yours, there’ll be no one worse than me
I’ll show this much right on you, boy
Banke parhauna kadon pind sadde auna
Kadon maapeyan to mangu mera hath jatta ve x(3)
When will you visit my village as a groom
When are you going to ask my hand for marriage from my mom-dad, oh boy
Ve main sunneya Canada de star vajjde
Andy Dhugga huni jehde tere yaar vajjde
Wait kara teri Surrey aale Barcelos te
Daale aa baithi nu shaami chaar vajj gaye
I’ve hear you are a star in Punjab
Andy Dhugga (a famous Punjabi Canadian) is your friend
I’m waiting for you at Barcelos (a restaurant) in Surrey
It’s already 4pm waiting for you
Can’t wait anymore
Aake lai gaya je hor
Pher laanat’an payenga
Mainu lakh jatta ve
I can’t wait anymore
Someone else will come and marry me
Then you’ll damn me
Million times, boy
Ve tu banke parhauna kadon pind sadde auna
Kadon maapeyan to mangu mera hath jatta ve x(2)
When will you visit my village as a groom
When are you going to ask my hand for marriage from my mom-dad, oh boy
Bahane je banauna rehna door jaan de
Door jaan de, door jaan de
Tainu pata nahio jatti tera kinna kardi
Kinna kardi, kinna kardi
You keep making excuses to keep distance
Keep distance, keep distance
You don’t realize how much the girl does (cares) for you
Does for you, does for you
