R Nait | Surinder Baba’s Aaye Thodi Hunda Lyrics Translation
The verses detail specific rules for village conduct. A core tenet is mandatory hospitality, which states a guest must not leave without being offered tea. Another point is unbreakable regional unity, where the Malwa and Doaba regions support the Majha region during difficult times.
Saade Fikran Da Taala Lainda Motor Aale Khooh TeOur worries are unlocked at the well with the water pump
Ni Motor Aale Khooh TeAt the well with the water pump
Deg Karwa Daiye Je Bhaar Hove Rooh TeWe’ll arrange a feast if the soul feels heavy
Ni Bhaar Hove Rooh TeIf the soul feels heavy
Saade Tu Hi Tu Hunda Ae, Main Main Thodi Hunda AeFor us, it’s always ‘we,’ it’s never ‘I’
Tu Hi Tu Hunda Ae, Main Main Thodi HundaIt’s always ‘we,’ it’s never ‘I’
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Saadeyan Pindan Ch Billo Aein Thodi Hunda AeGirl, that’s not how it’s done in our villages
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Rabb Jihde Taur Utte Zor Launda HougaThe one whose style God himself must put effort into
Ni Zor Launda HougaMust put effort into
Pakkiyan Shartan Ohde Chitte Paunda HougaHe must be placing sure bets on that man’s character
Ni Chitte Paunda HougaMust be placing bets on him
Pata Lage Na Subah Da Gall Kitti Ton BinaYou can’t know someone’s nature without talking to them
Banda Mudan Nahi Dinde Chah Peeti Ton BinaAnd we don’t let a guest leave without drinking tea
Naale Saade Bina Saara Kujh Teh Thodi Hunda AeBesides, not everything gets decided without us
Saade Bina Saara Kujh Teh Thodi Hunda AeNot everything gets decided without us
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Saadeyan Pindan Ch Billo Aein Thodi Hunda AeGirl, that’s not how it’s done in our villages
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Katti Na Je Raat Guru Ghare Akhand Paath TeIf you’ve never spent a night at the ‘Akhand Paath’ continuous prayer in the temple
Laanat Jawani Pher Us Munde VaasteThen shame on the youth of that boy
Yaaraan Ch Na Baithe Ghare Keh Ke Raakhi Khet DiWho doesn’t sit with friends, using the excuse of guarding the fields
Geetkari Suni Ni Baba Te R Nait DiWho hasn’t listened to the poetry of the elders and R Nait
Ohnu Pher Pind Munda Keh Thodi HundaYou can’t really call him a village boy then
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Saadeyan Pindan Ch Billo Aein Thodi Hunda AeGirl, that’s not how it’s done in our villages
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Maada Time Majhe Nu Je Maarda DarabaIf hard times threaten the ‘Majha’ region
Ni Haye Maarda Daraba NiOh, if they threaten
Hikk Dhaa Ke Khad Jaanda Malwa Doaba NiThe ‘Malwa’ and ‘Doaba’ regions stand tall in solidarity
Haein Malwa Doaba Ni Malwa Doaba NiYes, the ‘Malwa’ and ‘Doaba’ regions
Laate Lenter Rakane Vech Kachiyan Makaanan DeMy dear, we’ve laid concrete roofs by selling our mud houses
Chalde Taan Veche Hone Langar Badaaman DeIf possible, we would have served almonds at the ‘langar’ community kitchen
Naale Marda Je Hove Bhai Seh Thodi Hunda AeAnd if a brother is suffering, you don’t just tolerate it
Marda Je Hove Bhai Seh Thodi Hunda AeIf a brother is suffering, you don’t just tolerate it
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Saadeyan Pindan Ch Billo Aein Thodi Hunda AeGirl, that’s not how it’s done in our villages
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Challde Ragde Jahazan Jinna Zor NiOur struggles carry the force of airplanes
Putt Tere Jehiyan Lainde Laake 4×4 NiBoys take girls like you for a ride in their 4x4s
Mirze Di Bakki Wangu Chhada Phire MaardaA bachelor roams free like ‘Mirza’s legendary horse’
Rakheya Rakane Kaala Jhota Kartar DaMy dear, we’ve kept a strong black buffalo like Kartar’s
Saade “Hurr! Hurr!” Hunda “Pai! Pai!” Thodi Hunda AeWe use a strong “Hurr! Hurr!” call for our cattle, not a weak “Pai! Pai!”
Ni Saadeyan Pindan ChIn our villages
Saadeyan Pindan Ch Billo Aein Thodi Hunda AeGirl, that’s not how it’s done in our villages
The title phrase, meaning “that’s not how it’s done,” repeats to correct unacceptable behaviors. The song lists the qualifications for being a true “village boy,” from attending prayers to prioritizing friends. The meaning of R Nait’s ‘Aaye Thodi Hunda’ lyrics builds a proud defense of a specific cultural identity.
