Check out the meaning behind one of the most popular songs on the 'Hidden Gems' EP by AP Dhillon and Gurinder Gill.
[AP Dhillon]
Oh mere naal khad ke tu baali jachdi
When you stand next to me, we look like a pair
Tere bina aaukha katan pal balliye
I can’t spare a moment without you
Meriya tu jadaan wich jave rachdi
You’re absorbed into my roots
Kar mere masle da hal baliye
You’re the answer to my problems
[AP Dhillon]
Na chehre tere te, akh tiki mutiyare
My eyes are glued to your face
Ni gabru tere te, oh shartaan laun kaware, ni munde tere te
Boys are placing bets on who will win you
[Gurinder Gill]
Oh chand diya rishma nu maat paa gyi
You shine brighter than rays of moonlight
Akh teri loka utte dhaave keher ni
Your look could devastate someone
Aashiqui kataar vich khad jande tadke nu
At dawn, your admirers stand in a line
Othe hi ne langh jande kai pehir ni,
They stand there all day
Sade dere te, geda maar dabaare
Come by our congregation
Ni gabru tere te, shartaan laun kanware ni munde tere te
Boys are placing bets on who will win you
[AP Dhillon]
Jo labdi ae tu inna loka ch naa
What you’re looking for is not in these people
Mere te tere ae naa lagge saah
We were meant for each other
Tu banni ae manzil, te aukhe ne raah
You’re my desire, even if it’s a challenge
Tenu pauna ae dena ae, mai saab lekhe laa
I’ll give everything to make it happen
Gallan taa karde ne sare ni
Everyone talks the talk
Kehan ge leke dene taare ni
Saying they’ll give you the stars
Tenu chaunde aa sab besahaare ni
But these people are helpless
Ehe pugne naa, sab launde laare ni
They won’t deliver, these are all false hopes
[AP Dhillon]
Gabru tere te, shartaan laun kanware
Boys are placing bets on who will win you
Ni munde tere, oh shartaan laun kaware, ni munde tere te
Boys are placing bets on who will win you
