Asla Lyrics English Translation by Watan Sahi
The poet mentions ‘picking up gear and sitting in the car, and now the roads are catching fire,’ painting a vivid image of action and power. Watan Sahi contrasts his care for his tools with the care he gives to love, showing a balance between duty and emotion.
Katta Bhaar Da Rakane Vairi Thaarda RakaneI carry heavy gear, girl, and it chills my enemies.
Jaande Seham Ne Je Ik Geda Maar Da RakaneThey tremble with fear if I just take one round through the streets, girl.
Paise Layi Vi Jaande Ne Naale Royi Vi Jaande NeThey chase the money, but they end up crying too.
Ni Tu Sach Puchhe Jigra Taan Yaar Da RakaneIf you want the truth, your man is the one with the real heart, girl.
O Jinna De Ishaareyan Te Tu DulldiThe ones whose every move makes you fall for them,
Oh Taan Bande Saade Muhre Jhagg Niklethose men turned out to be nothing but foam in front of me.
Ho Asle Nu Chakk Gaddi Vich Beh GayaI’ve picked up my gear and sat in the car,
Te Sohniye Ni Sadkaan Te Agg Nikleand now the roads are catching fire, beautiful.
Kamm Paar Da Karaan Main Khunje Vaarhda KaraanI finish the job completely and back them into a corner.
Engine Vairi Da Rakane Kade Car Da KaraanI break an enemy’s spirit, girl, just like I push a car’s engine.
Vaise Te Eh Vi Jaroori Vaise Pyaar Vi JarooriWhile this lifestyle is necessary, love is important too.
Moh Tere Naalo Vadh Hathiyaar Da KaraanI care for my tools more than I care for you.
Ho Bachde Hi Rehnde Aa Tareef Kithe KarniThey’re just trying to survive, so they’ll never praise me.
Rukna Ni Jatt Di Aa Rees Kithe KarniI won’t stop, and they’ll never be able to compete with a Jatt.
Main Vi Tatta Aa Rakane Ni Jawab Den NuI’m also quick-tempered, girl, when it comes to giving an answer.
Gujji Jatt Di Rakane Ohna Satt Kithe JarniHow will they ever endure the hidden blow of a Jatt?
Ho Sohniye Ni Mull Taan Crore’an Vich AeMy worth is in the millions, beautiful.
Highway De Thallon Tinn Takk NikleThree of my paths have emerged from under the highway.
Ho Asle Nu Chakk Gaddi Vich Beh GayaI’ve picked up my gear and sat in the car,
Te Sohniye Ni Sadkaan Te Agg Nikleand now the roads are catching fire, beautiful.
Ho Lakk Chakki Phirde Shikaari Kutte WargaThey’re prowling around like hunting dogs,
Ki Ohna De Dubb’an Nu P#stol Laggnabut how could a ‘sid#arm’ ever fit at their waist?
Udd Udd Aunde Aa Sawaad Lain NuThey come flying in just to try and enjoy the show.
Te Hamb-Hamb Saaleyan Da Time LanghnaAnd those people will just exhaust themselves as time passes.
Ho Aakhde Hunde Si Sahi Tu Ni ChaldaThey used to say that I wouldn’t last.
Changa Hoya Ohna De Vi Shakk NikleIt’s a good thing their doubts have been proven wrong.
Ho Asle Nu Chakk Gaddi Vich Beh GayaI’ve picked up my gear and sat in the car,
Te Sohniye Ni Sadkaan Te Agg Nikleand now the roads are catching fire, beautiful.
