Ho jithe khad jaiye lagg janda mela

[Wherever we stand, a crowd gathers]

Patlo ni naam jatt nu anakh ditta Rabb ne

[Girl, God has gifted the Jatt with self-respect]

Rehnda shonk da pawaunda jatt gidha jattiye

[The Jatt keeps the hobby of making people dance, girl]

Ni meri jutti te zamane aale jab ne

[The world's nonsense talk is beneath my shoe]

Ho baba deyi janda billo jatt lainda ae nazare

[God keeps giving, and the Jatt keeps enjoying]

Eh ton bina kade hor kuj lochya hi nahi

[Apart from this, I've never desired anything else]

Gabru kamauna te udauna jaanda

[The young man knows how to earn and how to spend]

Gall ki houga kade sochiya hi nahi

[I never thought about what the consequences might be]

Gabru kamauna te udauna jaanda

Honi aa kisse di vich fit hone aaye ni

[We aren't here to fit into anyone else's plans]

Hosh ch rahi da bahuta set hone aaye ni

[We stay in our senses, we aren't here just to get high]

Ho likhiyan likhaiyan mannde ni takdeeran nu

[We don't believe in pre-written destinies]

Kithe jaake laggna sikhayi da ni teeran nu

Hove je kade taan jhatt mann lene aan

Tabelay 'ch khouru paundiyan wacheriyan

Obsession caran da khadiyan batheriyan

[I have an obsession with cars, plenty are parked]

Lagge nehar naal shehar vich killa dedh sau

[There's 150 acres of land in the city by the canal]

Ni channan khilaaf dittiyan hanerian

[We have raised storms against the light]

Hass ke aunda jo aave jee sadke

[Whoever comes with a smile is most welcome]

Fateh janda jehda jave kade rokya hi nahi

[Whoever leaves victorious, we never stopped them]

Gabru kamauna te udauna jaanda

Ni gabru aa balliye engine rail da

[The young man is the engine of the train, girl]

Koi jammya ni jehda sade baare jaanda

[No one is born who truly knows about us]

Gawah kalla Rabb mittran de khel da

[Only God is the witness to our games]

Jehri aaje pasand cheez chakk lene aa

[Whatever thing we like, we pick it up]

Beh ke chulle agge bebe hatthon shakk lene aa

[We sit by the stove and eat from mother's hands]

Occasion vacation na matter kare ni

Sada jado mood hove odo jach lene aa

Udd de ja bhajj de shikaar kare Gippy

[Gippy hunts those who fly or run]

Kade giddan wangu umar'an dabochya hi nahi

[I never wasted my years living like a jackal]

Gabru kamauna te udauna jaanda

Gall ki houga kade sochiya hi nahi
