Adhhi Pagal Meaning & Lyrics (Gulab Sidhu | Kavy Riyyaaz)
Kavy Riyyaaz’s lyrics include a plea for connection. They describe two sides of a coin, facing away. The wish is to make them face one another.
Maahiya Ve Lamm SalaameyaMy beloved, I send you my deepest respects.
Lammiyan Tu Daudan Ch RehneYou’re always busy running far away.
Okan Na Mere Naal RehneYou don’t stay with me the same way,
Jeekan Tu Horaan Naal RehneAs you do with everyone else.
Jaa Taan Mainu Maar Muka De Jaa Phir Eh Doori VeEither kill me once and for all, or end this distance.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
Ik Sikke De Do Pase, Ik Main Aa Te Ik Tu VeWe’re two sides of the same coin, you and I.
Kar Kujh Aisa Ho Jaavan, Ik Dujje De Vall Munh VeDo something so that we finally face one another.
Meelan Di Doori Nu Ve, Inchan Ton Thodi KardeShrink this distance of miles into just a few inches.
Khadiye Ve Ikko Chatt Te, Passe Tu Paudi KardeLet’s stand together on one roof; just set the ladder aside.
Minnatan Ne Mulaqaat Nu, Watt Na Tu Ghoori VeI’m begging you for a meeting; don’t just glare at me.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
Khauhre Tu Ki Sochenga, Par Sachhi Punn Ho JanaWho knows what you’ll think, but it’d truly be a ‘virtuous deed’.
Pa Le Je Tu Galwakdi, Pinda Mera Sunn Ho JanaIf you just give me a hug, my whole body’ll go numb.
Puchhuga ‘Dirba’ Saara, Puchhu Tere Maa Baap TonAll of ‘Dirba’ will ask; they’ll ask your parents.
Kithon Eh Pari Leandi, Kehdi Tu Kohkaaf TonWhere’d you bring this fairy from? Which ‘mythical mountain’ is she from?
Hath Laayan Maili Hundi Meman Ton Gori VeI’m fairer than ‘Western women’, so delicate that a touch would stain me.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
‘Kavy Riyaaz’ Ve Zindagi Jiyooni Khwaban Wali Ve‘Kavy Riyaaz’, I want to live a life that’s like a dream.
Ve Tu Muqaddar Mera Main Teri Bhagaan Wali VeYou’re my destiny, and I’m your lucky one.
Kadd Ton Kamaad Wargeya, Main Haan Vich Akk Da BootaYou’re tall like ‘sugarcane’, while I’m just a ‘wild milkweed plant’.
Tere Naal Crore’an Di Main Bin Tere Khaali ThootaWith you, I’m worth millions; without you, I’m just an empty ‘clay bowl’.
Rahun Teri Sohn Khani Aa Bharke Main Chooli VeI’ll keep swearing by you, taking a ‘handful of water’ to vow.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
Adhi Main Pehlan Hi Pagal, Karde Tu Poori VeI’m already half-mad; go on and make it complete.
