Jugni ja varhi Punjab |
|
Jithe parhe likhe bekaar |
|
Vech Zameena Javan Bahar |
|
Uthey maran jhadu |
|
Uthey gori len viyah |
|
Pichay tabbar take rah |
|
Veer meriya ve Jugni kehndi aa |
|
Ek Navin Udari Lehndi aa |
|
(Jugni blazed into Punjab |
|
Where the educated are unemployed |
|
Selling off their lands and going abroad |
|
Where they sweep floors |
|
Where they marry a white girl |
|
Back home the family awaits their return |
|
Jugni says, My brother |
|
Today I soar on a new flight) |
|
Jugni ja varhi Bambai |
|
Jithe saunda koi nahin |
|
Sab labhan cheez koi |
|
Kisse kisse nu labhe |
|
Jinnu labhe oh bechain |
|
Matthe vat fir usdey painh |
|
Veer meriya ve Jugni kehndi aa |
|
Ik saah sabar da laindi aa |
|
(Jugni blazed into Bombay |
|
Where no one ever sleeps |
|
And everyone is looking for something |
|
Very few ever find it |
|
Those who find it lose their calm |
|
Lines appear on their forehead |
|
Jugni says, My brother |
|
I heave a sigh of contentment) |
