Behnde Dariya
For the first time, I’ve written something in punjabi. And of all the places, I wrote this when I’m sitting in kerala, surrounded by malayalis and malayalam. Don’t know why but it just happened. A first amongst many firsts. Hope you guys like it.
koi jaana rabb deyo pyaareyon
jaake kehna mere apneyaan nu
kithe reh na jaan udeekde
oh duuron langde dariya nu
koi dharam ni hunda khwaban da
eh wafa kisse naal karde nahi
bass laare laayi rakhde ne
change bhaleyaan bandeyaan nu
jadon hawa vi kidre chaldi ae
kisse mod te aake rukdi ae
main taan vagdi khushbu aan
chhad di jaavaan pawanaa nu
khayaal mera har saah de naal
ohde kollon hoke langda ae
par gallaan gilliyaan vekh ke
chumm aa jaanda ae kadmaa nu
nave jute, nitt nave kapde paaye
baron sab kar chukaya haan
koi aave dasse kaddaan kiddaan
main apne andaron watanaan nu
koi jaana rabb deyo pyaareyon
jaake kehna mere apneyaan nu
kithe reh na jaan udeekde
oh duuron langde dariya nu
