SCAPEGOAT

[Intro]

Yeah Ah!

Yeah Ah!

Show mercy on it! (Ha ha)

Show mercy on it! (Ha ha)

[Verse 1]

Oh mainu kal gal kise bande ne si kahi

Someone said something to me yesterday.

Kehnda haareya tu kyuke teri party nai sahi

He said you lost because your party isn't right.

Main keha thik ik gal dass bai

I said alright, tell me one thing, brother.

Je ehni si galat pehla tussi kyu jitaayi

If it was so wrong, why did you let them win earlier?

Kyun tinn vaar pehla tussi ese nu jitaye

Why did you make them win three times before?

Sun meri gal koi jawaab kyun nahi aaya

Listen to me, why was there no answer?

Main keha aithe hi pawada ho jaane

I said the conflict starts right here.

Tuhada kita thik dujja mada ho janda

What you do is right, but the other [person's act] becomes bad.

[Chorus]

Kinne kidi chunni sarkar daaso kaun

Whose government is it? Tell me who.

Hun mainu loko oye gaddar daso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

Jit gaya kaun gaya haar dasso kaun

Who won, who lost, tell me who.

Hun mainu loko oye gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

[Verse 2]

Oh jithe aunde sach sab charde aa palla

Where the truth comes, everyone backs away.

Aithe pehla bahut haare oh main hareya nahi kalla

Many have lost here before, I didn't lose alone.

Loka bahut sacheya dil goddani lavayi

People have played with the hearts of the innocent.

Ehna dogleya bibi khalra harayi

These double-faced people made Bibi Khalra lose.

Jide naal ture si kisaan nu haraya

They defeated the farmers they walked with.

Ehna ne simarjit maan nu haraya

They defeated Simarjit Maan.

Deke shardanjliya firde aa khulle

They roam freely giving tributes.

Eh ta navreet deep sidhu nu vi bhulle

They even forgot Navreet and Deep Sidhu.

[Chorus]

Kide ehe sakke parivaar dasso kaun

Whose family is this? Tell me who.

Hun mainu loko oye gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

Jitt gaya kaun gaya haar dasso kaun

Who won, who lost, tell me who.

Hun mainu loko oyе gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

[Verse 3]

Oh ego si gi bahut bol satta dinda mainu

There was a lot of ego, they used to judge me.

Jito sabhi naa janani sala matta dinda mainu

Everyone was giving me unsolicited advice.

Khud loka laayi maidana vich rahe kyu nahi hoye

Why didn't they stand in the field for the people themselves?

Jehre hassde mere te aap khade kyu nahi

Those who laugh at me, why aren't they standing there?

Kyun ke net tu bina tan galbaat naiyo ehni

Because without the internet, they don't have much to say.

Kuch kar ke dikhaun oh aukaat naiyo ehni

They don't have the stature to show something by doing it.

Aive beth ke rajayan vich honki da ni hunda

One shouldn't just bark while sitting in blankets.

Putt badhna je hove aive bhonki da ni hunda

If you want to rise, son, you shouldn't just bark.

[Chorus]

Oh jhoteya di yaar oye star dasso kaun

Who are the stars of these hypocrites? Tell me.

Hun menu loko oye gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

Jit gaya kaun gaya haar dasso kaun

Who won, who lost, tell me who.

Hun mainu loko oye gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

[Verse 4]

Oh nave vi aa maare Taksaali vi aa maare

The new ones failed, the old traditional ones failed too.

Aa Congressy maare aah Akaali vi aa maare

The Congress party failed, the Akalis failed too.

Tussi chuniya ehna nu hikka tan aye kahton

You chose them, why are you chest-thumping now?

Aap sab nalo maare gal mann de ni kahton

They are the worst of all, why don't you accept it?

Piche hoya jo vi hoya zuban utte reho

Whatever happened in the past, stand by your words.

Hun jinha nu jataya maara ehna nu kahyo

Now call those you voted for failures.

Kyunke rehna ethe ehi kade vadni na range

Because you have to live here, the range will never change.

Ohi sarkaran kalla logo hoya change

It's the same governments, only the logo changed.

[Chorus]

Jo raaj sada hoya zimidar dasso kaun

Who is responsible for the state of our rule?

Oh hun menu loko oye gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

Jit gaya kaun gaya haar dasso kaun

Who won, who lost, tell me who.

Hun mainu loko oye gaddar dasso kaun

Now people, tell me who is the traitor.

[Verse 5]

Oh meri chado gal main tan leya si stand

Forget about me, I took a stand.

Oh, Bachhre hoye lokan da bana dita si brand

I turned the forgotten people into a brand.

Dhanvaad ohna da jo lesson sikhaya

Thanks to those who taught me a lesson.

Main jinha nu jateya mainu ohna ne haraya

Those I supported, they defeated me.

Main jiteya ni katu mainu dukh naiyo koi

I didn't win, so I have no sorrow.

Mainu tuhadi aa siyasat di bukh naiyo koi

I have no hunger for your politics.

Din vi chado ga bhave raat si gi meri

The day will rise, even though it was my night.

Oh ant naiyo hoya shurwaat si gi meri

It wasn't the end, it was my beginning.

Bole bhave hun ne siyan ch ni mainu

Even if they say I'm not in the calculations now.

Oh haareya jo kehnde saale jande ni mainu

Those who call me a loser don't know me.

Sooli aale sooli bina saar de ni honde

Those who walk the gallows cannot do without the path.

Jidi ragan vich fateh kade haar de ni honde

Those who have victory in their veins never lose.

[Outro]

Kahavat si jede Lahore phudu oh Peshawar vi phudu

There's a saying: those who can fool in Lahore can fool in Peshawar too.

Suno suno suno katyo na ae dobara karlo

Listen, listen, listen, don't cut this, do it again.

Jede Lahore phudu oh Peshawar vi phudu

Those who can fool in Lahore can fool in Peshawar too.

Peshawar vi phudu…

Can fool in Peshawar too...
