Jawani Lyrics Meaning Simar Doraha | D Town To B Town
Doraha describes phone booth owners profiting from endless calls about young crushes. Scars from street fights became marks of friendship loyalty in his verses. His words show how minor rebellions defined group identity.
Chal Apne Wallon Taan Laake Reejh KardaCome on, I’m doing things with full passion from my side.
Main Kam Saare Kite Jehde Tu Bhateej KardeI’ve done all the things that you ‘young guys’ are doing now.
Chal Apne Wallon Taan Laake Reejh KardaCome on, I’m putting my whole heart into everything I do.
Main Kam Saare Kite Jehde Tu Bhateej KardeI’ve already lived through everything you’re trying to do today.
Assi Aap Hi Aan Maahde Saddi Likhat Ni MaahdiWe might be flawed ourselves, but our writing isn’t bad.
Kole Akal Nadaan Na Hi Gallan Utte DaadhiI had a naive mind and hadn’t even grown a beard yet.
Hunda Parhda Je Naal Bada Karda MalaalI’d regret it deeply if I were studying alongside you now.
Bamb Jeban Wich Nature Toofani Hundi SiI had firecrackers in my pockets and a storm in my nature.
Chhote Jadon Kite Sadde TeKid, when at one time on us,
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Saade Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kitey Saade Te Jawaani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Sikhar Dupehre Pindon Parhan Si AundiShe used to come from the village to study in the afternoon heat.
Tenu Pichhe Ohde Bulletan Di Fauj Hundi SiAn army of ‘Bullet motorcycles’ used to follow behind her.
Aa PCO Wale Vi Kothi Sadde Siron PaigiThese ‘public phone booth’ owners even built bungalows because of us.
Ikk Number Fadaun Di Vi Mauj Hundi SiThere was a unique joy even in handing over a phone number.
Bas Milda Si Dhokha Gharon Bhajna Si AukhaWe only faced betrayal, and it was hard to run away from home.
Jhatt Hath Wich Bapu De Badani Hundi SiMy father would instantly have a ‘stick’ in his hand.
Chhote Jadon Kite Sade TeKid, when at one time on us,
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Saade Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kitey Saade Te Jawaani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Khoon Apna Taan Daan Kita Dhaniyan BanakeI sacrificed my own blood to make my friends wealthy.
Par Vairi Da Paani De Wangu Dol Dinde SiBut I dealt with my enemies with fierce intensity.
Aa Gunan Wali Gandi Badmashi Nahiyo KitiI never took part in that dirty ‘gangsterism’ involving weapons.
Jyada Akkde Taan Popad Hi Khol Dinde SiIf they got too arrogant, I’d humble them instantly.
Assi Khaure Kini Vaar Khaade Hikkan Utte VaarWho knows how many times I took blows to my chest.
Chak Pinde Utte Yaari Di Nishani Hundi SiI carried those marks on my body as symbols of friendship.
Chhote Jadon Kite Sade TeKid, when at one time on us,
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Saade Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kitey Saade Te Jawaani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Sad Veleyan Ch Afeem Vi Nashe Ch Aundi SiDuring sad times, ‘opi#m’ was the chosen intoxicant.
Ke Dil Tutte Ton Koi Dava Dalla Peg Launda SiWhen a heart broke, people would take medicine or a drink.
Aa Nave Je Jawaakan Di Awaaz Hi Na SuneThe voices of these new kids aren’t even heard today.
Tan Speaker Ton Uchi Surjit Gaunda SiBack then, Surjit ‘Bindrakhia’ sang louder than the speakers.
Bade Simar Ne Dakke Je Tu Chhad Janda DhakkeSimar has stopped many; if you’d been caught in my path,
Lag Pata Janda Kivein Kaptani Hundi SiYou’d realize what true leadership felt like.
Chhote Jadon Kite Sade TeKid, when at one time on us,
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Saade Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kitey Saade Te Jawaani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
Jadon Kite Sadde Te Jawani Hundi SiWhen youth used to be upon us.
