Longway’s Iceman Lyrics Translation
The meaning of the “Iceman” lyrics shifts from material success to motivation. Kaptaan writes that the hustle was never for basic survival, since “two meals a day” were always available. This ambition is connected to gratitude for the nation that embraced him, whose soil feels like a mother’s.
Neck Te Vi Ice Saade Gutt Ch Vi IceThere’s ice on my neck, there’s ice on my wrist
Saade Peg Ch Vi Ice Munda Iceman AaThere’s ice in my drink, the man is an iceman
Ik Addat Aa Maadi Dode Shadd Ni HundeI have one bad habit, I can’t quit the ‘poppy pods’
Baaki Touchwood Jamma Munda Nice Man AaBut otherwise, touchwood, the man is a nice man
Khedan Lohe Diyan Lockeran Ch Jodi PhirdeWe’re playing with iron, moving pairs in lockers
2 Crore Ke Tan Road Utte Rodi PhirdeWe’ve casually left two crores lying on the road
Si Kde Supna Flight Ch Fly KarnaIt was once a dream just to fly on a plane
Buy Karne Nu Jahajaan Ale Adde PhirdeNow we’re out here trying to buy entire airports
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Jehdi Country Ne Bukkl Ch Sanu Sambhya NiThe country that held us in its embrace
Oss Country Di Mitti Lagge Maa WargiThe soil of that country feels like a mother’s
Jehdi Mitran Nu Pehle Dino Charhi Hoi AeThe high that I’ve been on since day one
Koi Dooji Lor Ni Rkaane Ohde Na WargiDarling, no other intoxication compares to it
Saadi Mehnat Vi Rakhde Ground PaadkeOur hard work tears up the ground
Ni Hoie Pump Up Pehlan Push Up MaarkeWe get pumped up after doing our push-ups
Saare Levelan De Level Cross KarneWe have to cross every possible level
Ni Ghode Banke Kamma Te Tahi Lagge PhirdeThat’s why we’re harnessed to our work like horses
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Bussiness Aa Ke Kheti Kehda PeshaIs it business or farming? What’s the profession?
Kithe Peshi Saade Mugshot Dekhi Saade Kaand Boht AaWhere’s the court hearing? Look at our mugshots, our deeds are many
Jado Paunde Lahmbe Lahunde Ni OccasionallyWhen we throw down, it’s not just occasionally
Paunde Odda Jatt Di Snap Di Demand Bahot AaOtherwise, the demand for this ‘Jatt’s’ Snap is high
Asi Jaan Naal Khediye Jubaan Naal NiWe play with our lives, not with our words
Match Soukha Thodi Pauna Kaptaan Naal NiIt’s not so easy to match up with Kaptaan
Akh Akh Ch Ni Paunde Jihnu Khand Payi AaThose who have a weakness don’t dare make eye contact
Ni Vadde Villain Padaayi Satho Jhagge PhirdeEven the biggest villains are out here learning from us
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
Ohtan Gharo Vi Si Mitran Nu Mil JaaniyaWe could have gotten that back home easily
Ni Do Rotiyan De Piche Thodi Bhajje PhirdeWe aren’t out here chasing after just two meals a day
