Panjab

[Verse 1:]

Sant'an de hathan vich farheyaa teer de warga ni

I am like the arrow held in the hands of saints,

Dhakke naal jinhu dabb laon gey Kashmir de warga ni

Resilient like Kashmir, which they try to suppress by force,

Garh guts waaleyaan mardaan da janaab kehande aa

I am known as the home of fearless, brave men.

[Chorus:]

Keh Keh ke badle lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I take my revenge openly,

Delhi v napp lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I can even hold Delhi down.

(Panjab kehande aa, Panjab kehande aa)

(They call me Punjab, they call me Punjab)

[Verse 2:]

Bach keh reh too'n bachke dilliye garam khalayian ton

Beware, Delhi, stay away from these hot-tempered people,

Mere baare puch lai Porus, Abdali'an ton

Ask Porus and the Abdalis about me,

Muddh ton e chalda saada puthha hisaab kehande aa

They say our way of settling scores has always been unconventional.

[Chorus:]

Keh Keh ke badle lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I take my revenge openly,

Delhi v napp lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I can even hold Delhi down.

[Verse 3:]

Hale v aakhan tainu rukh too'n morh laе dandeyaan de

I still warn you to turn back before it's too late,

Kidhrey harе ton kesri naa rang ho jaan jhandeyaa'n de

Lest the flags turn from green to saffron (symbolizing sacrifice),

Pher dhaun te godha dharr ke dinde daab kehande aa

Then I will pin you by the throat, that's what they say.

[Chorus:]

Keh Keh ke badle lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I take my revenge openly,

Delhi v napp lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I can even hold Delhi down.

[Verse 4:]

Muddh ton mere khilaaf ditte too'n order dilliye ni

Delhi, you have issued orders against me since the beginning,

Bhulli naa mainu vi lagdae border dilliye ni

Don't forget my borders, Delhi,

Moose aale hurri puttni teri jaabh kehande aa

They say the people of Moose Wala will tear out your tongue.

[Chorus:]

Keh Keh ke badle lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I take my revenge openly,

Delhi v napp lainda mainu Panjab kehande aa

They call me Punjab, for I can even hold Delhi down.
