Lyrics: Harmanjit 
Music: Gurmeet Singh 

Ve tu laung, ve main laachi 
Tere pichhe aa gawachi (x2) 

You’re like a clove, I’m like cardamon 
I’m all after you 

Tere ishqe ne maari 
Kudi kanch di kanwari (x2) 

Your love has killed 
This glass like girl 

Ve main chambe de pahadan wali 
Shaam ve mudeyan 

I’m like the ones in the mountains of Chamba (a place) 
A beautiful evening, boy 

Sandli sandli naina vich 
Tera naam ve mudeya (x3) 

In my sandal like (big and beautiful) eyes 
Is your name, boy 

Haan mere sunne sunne pair 
Tu taan jaana rehne shehar 
Bohtan mangdi na thoda 
Lai de janjran da joda (x2) 

My legs feel empty 
You keep visiting the city 
I’m not asking for much 
Get me a pair of anklets 

Jehda vikkda bazaran vich 
Aam ve mundeya 

Which is sold in the markets 
Very commonly, boy 

Sandli sandli naina vich 
Tera naam ve mudeya (x2) 

In my sandal like (big and beautiful) eyes 
Is your name, boy 

Rukhe baalan de ve chhalle 
Tere bina assi kalle 
Paale baawan vich baawan 
Dhuppan ban jaan chhawaan (x2) 

Like rings aloof from one another are formed in dry hair 
I’m alone without you 
Crossing your hands with mine 
Turns the sunshine to evening (all bad becomes good)  

Tainu likheya hawawan te 
Paigham ve mundeya 

For you, I’ve written in the air 
A message, boy 

Sandli sandli naina vich 
Tera naam ve mudeya (x2) 

In my sandal like (big and beautiful) eyes 
Is your name, boy
