"Famous" by Sidhu Moosewala was one of his first projects independent from the BROWN BOYS group with Sunny Malton and Byg Byrd, showing that Sidhu was an artist in his own right. His iconic "Dil da ni mada" tagline became popular after this song.
"Famous" is all about Sidhu's rise to stardom from his humble beginnings at DAV College to his position now as an iconic Punjabi artist.
Humko mita sake yeh zamane mein dum nahi
Society does not have the power to destroy me
Humse zamana khud hai zamane se hum nahi
My existence is not dependent on the world. But society exits because of me.
Gall sachi aakhan karda ni tease mithiye
I only speak the truth, girl
Milde aan lok deke fees mithiye
People pay me to meet me
Tu jihna naal photo'aan khichaun nu phire
The people that you try to take pictures with
Karde aa jatt di oh rees mithiye
Those people try to copy me
Vakh jama jehda bheedan te kataaran (1) vichon ni
I am certainly different from the crowd
Ho top utte lakhan te hazaran vichon ni
Out of the hundreds and thousands, I am the best
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that’s me
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that’s me
Ho chalda jo waddi waadi car’an vich ni
The one who drives the best cars
Jihda bolbala choti (2) diyan nara vich ni
The one who all the hot girls talk about
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that’s me
Ho worldwide game poori tadi balliye
My reach is world wide
Hater'aan di tahni dekh sadi balliye
All my haters are jealous
Attitude touch ambaraan nu karda
I have a huge personality
Head up ego down muchh khadi balliye
Sidhu has swag
Jatt ae bigdeya biba jo star’an vichon ni
I am a spoiled celebrity
Ho khatteya koyi fayada jihne yaaran vichon ni
I didn’t use my friends for favors
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Ho chalda jo waddi waadi car’an vich ni
The one who drives the best cars
Jihda bolbala choti diyan nara vich ni
The one who all the hot girls talk about
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Ho dil da ni maada Sidhu Moose Wala
Sidhu Moosewala does not have a bad heart
Sidhu Moose Wala tera, Sidhu Moose Wala
Your Sidhu Moosewala,
Main keha dil da ni maada Sidhu Moose Wala
I said Sidhu Moosewala's heart is not bad
Sidhu Moose Wala, Sidhu Moose Wala tera
Your Sidhu Moosewala,
Dil da ni maada, dil da ni maada
Does not have a bad heart

Your Sidhu Moosewala
Naam aa te taur aa tabahi (3) nakhro
My name and swag are killer
Jo CN tower chadhayi nakhro
They are as tall as the CN tower
Ho landuan di daar fame hon nu phire
These fuckers are trying to get famous
Mere naal karke ladayi nakhro
They’re trying to get fame from dissing me
Jehde pith pichhe paunde mere reply ni
The people who talk behind my back
Saale munh utte kehnde ohi bai bai ni
Call me “bro” to my face
Latt chaldhi na bhaar
They can’t carry the weight when they face
Latt chaldhi na bhaar
They can’t carry the weight when they face
Ho chalda jo waddi waadi car’an vich ni
The one who drives the best cars
Jihda bolbala choti diyan nara vich ni
The one who all the hot girls talk about
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Ho saukha nahio billo mainu beat karna
It’s not easy to beat me
Sikheya ni kiton appan cheat karna
I am not a cheater
Kall de jawaak kalaman nu chakki phirde ne
Kids who were born yesterday, carry pens in their pockets
Kehnde Moose Wala compete karna
They want to compete with me
Thonu lagda ae baaji tussi jitt lavoge
You think you’re going to win this contest against me
Jatt top utte khada ohnu sitt lavoge
I’m on top, and they think they can bring me down
Gall thode bass’on baahar
This is out of your reach
Gall thode bass’on baahar
This is out of your reach
Ho chalda jo waddi waadi car’an vich ni
The one who drives the best cars
Jihda bolbala choti diyan nara vich ni
The one who all the hot girls talk about
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Billo oh aa tera yaar
Girl, that's me
Wakh duniya ton wakhri hi taur turrda
I’m different from the world with a different style.
Eh ni jo aithe othe nitt aunde ne
I’m not like every other artist that has come and gone.
Mukabale diyan gallan chhad de kaka
Forget about trying to compete with me
Mere te duplicate vi hit hunde ne
My clones are successful.
The lines in the intro of the song were originally penned by the Urdu poet Jigar Moradabadi. The lines were made famous by Raaj Kumar's character in the movie Bulundi (1980). In the movie the Professor Satish Khurana acts with integrity and courage despite threats from a cabal of gangsters. Sidhu compares himself to the professor and contrasts them to other stars in the industry.
