Show lyrics only

Gal sunn lallaria ve
Ah lok mere te hassde
Paise zyaada de dungi
Matching kar denga ta dass de
Sunla ve ditto same chahidi
Ah lai photo ve Ferrari laal di1

Chunni meri rangde lallaria
Ve chunni meri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi de naal di
Chunni meri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi de naal di2

Odaa’ pangge lagde aa
Ohnu changge lagde aa
Tahi’ sochaan kundlaan pava lavaan
Socha shar-e-aam hojaan
Sochdi aa naam ohda
Gutt te tattoo banwa lavaan
Sochdi fer taaldi main
Phantom de naal di main
Ik hor kurti savaa lavaan3

Ohnu dekh ke taan meri ho jave
Meri umar vadhdi de naal di4

Ve chunni mеri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi dе naal di
Chunni meri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi de naal di

Mere laye dekh laye je kudiyaan kawariyan ne dekhi ve duppatte tere vikdey
Enni sohni chunni lagge jatti te layi ke mainu jadon oho dekhe gaana likhde
Kamm mainu bade
Sunyaare kolon karhe
Naale hale main Sephora geda maarna
Aundaa ae pyaar ohda
Hona ae deedar ohda
Chajj nal hoi main tyaar na5

Darr lagda na kite reh javaan
Saddi na saddi de naal di6

Ve chunni meri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi de naal di
Chunni meri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi de naal di

Aujle nu lod meri hojave
Ghar di kaddi de naal di7

Ve chunni meri rangde lallaria
Mere yaar di gaddi de naal di …

  1. The woman is speaking to a lallari, a man who dyes clothes. She says to him, that though people mock her, she is willing to pay extra to get a dupatta/chunni dyed the same red colour as her lover’s red Ferrari. ↩︎

  2. Dye my chunni lallaria
    The same colour as my lover’s car ↩︎

  3. Here she day dreams about all the things she wants to get done to show her love for her lover. She thinks that though it seems to be a hassle (pangge), she could get curls (kundlaan) in her hair because her lover likes them. Then she wonders if she should go public with her love for him and straight up (shar-e-aam) get his name tattooed on her wrist (gutt). She flip flops between the ideas as she thinks of getting a new kurti stitched that matches with her lover’s Rolls Royce Phantom (which is the car Karan Aujla drives in real life). ↩︎

  4. She feels as if she gains a new life when she sees him! ↩︎

  5. When young girls will see me with your dyed dupattas, watch how your sales boom
    The chunni looks so good on me, my lover writes songs each time he sees me with it
    I have lots of things to do I have to get bangles from the jeweller I still have to make a round at Sephora I feel so much love for him I will get to see him I need to get ready for him! ↩︎

  6. I am not sure what this means but I think the woman feels afraid that if she doesn’t dress up well for her lover, he might just leave her. ↩︎

  7. She hopes that Aujla, the singer and her lover, feels a need for her, the same way that he (or men generally) feel the need for hooch/country liquor (ghar di kaddi). ↩︎
