“Jidda Jatt Chalde” by Inder Dosnjh and Gurlez Akhtar features Twinkle Mahajan. The song, with lyrics from Meet Hundal and music by San B, begins with a question about his lifestyle. She contrasts the ordinary sound of festival firecrackers with the constant gunfire that defines his world.
Gurlez Akhtar sings that the shadows of death walk alongside him because his dreams are terrifying. In response, Inder Dosnjh states that powerful men must operate in the shade of their firearms. This posture is how he ensures other men tread carefully around him.
Kehdi Jung Te Challe O? Rakhde O AslaWhat war are you heading to, carrying all these weapons?
Hikk Naal Laake Pattu Saunde RaflaanThe boys sleep with firearms held close to their chests.
Ve Sadde Taan Diwaliyan Te Chalde PatakeFor us, firecrackers only go off during Diwali.
Sadde Ambran Nu Fire Khadkaavein ChaldeFor you, gunfire constantly rattles our skies.
Tere Jatta Aa Dream Ve Daraawein ChaldeYour dreams are terrifying, my dear Jatt.
Tere Naal Maut De Parchave ChaldeThe shadows of death walk right alongside you.
O Velly Bande Raflaan Di Chaanve ChaldeOutlaws walk in the shadow of their firearms.
Jidaan Jatt Chalde Aa Bande Taanve ChaldeAnd where a Jatt walks, other men tread with care.
Ho Tere Masle Aa Maade Jatta Kadd Di Main HaadeYour conflicts are awful, Jatt, and I’m pleading with you.
Thodde Vellyan De Rehnde Kaahton Khoon Enne GaarheWhy is the temperament of your crew always so fierce?
Vairi Rehnde Aa Trap Te Phone Rehnda Tap TeOur enemies are always being trapped, our phones are always tapped.
Dhilla Matha Banda Na Koi Rakhya Snap TeThere are no weak-minded people featured on my Snap.
Ve Mainu Thodda Sab Kujh Fake LaggdaTo me, everything about you seems so fake.
Taionu Dasange Toofan Jatt Kidda ThalldeWe’ll show you how a Jatt can calm any storm.
Tere Jatta Aa Dream Ve Daraavein ChaldeYour dreams are terrifying, my dear Jatt.
Tere Naal Maut De Parchave ChaldeThe shadows of death walk right alongside you.
O Velly Bande Raflaan Di Chaanve ChaldeOutlaws walk in the shadow of their firearms.
Jidaan Jatt Chalde Aa Bande Taanve ChaldeAnd where a Jatt walks, other men tread with care.
Tera Khauff Haddo Vadh Vairi Suttde Aa JhagYour terror is so extreme that your enemies froth at the mouth.
‘Meet Hundal’ Tu Jionda Life Jag To Alag Ve‘Meet Hundal’, you live a life that’s set apart from the world.
Sadde Nit De Aa Chalde Kalesh Vekh LiYou’ll see, our conflicts are a daily affair.
Baithe Gaddi Vich Jattan Di Grace Vekh LiYou’ll see the grace of the Jatts sitting in their cars.
Bhavein Gaddi De Rim’an Ch Tera Face Vekh LiYou can even see your reflection in the car’s rims.
O Kayi Vaari Mainu Ta Yakeen Ja Ni AundaSometimes, I just can’t seem to believe it.
Jehde Chukkde Aa Tainu Oh Jawak Kal DeThe ones who challenge you are just yesterday’s kids.
Tere Jatta Aa Dream Ve Daraavein ChaldeYour dreams are terrifying, my dear Jatt.
Tere Naal Maut De Parchave ChaldeThe shadows of death walk right alongside you.
O Velly Bande Raflaan Di Chaanve ChaldeOutlaws walk in the shadow of their firearms.
Jidaan Jatt Chalde Aa Bande Taanve ChaldeAnd where a Jatt walks, other men tread with care.
Chaal Dhaal Teri Vigdi Aa Khaake Kaala MaalYour ways are corrupted from taking the dark substance.
Teri Akh Rehndi Laal, Bade Uthde SawaalYour eyes are always red, and it raises so many questions.
Majhe Aale Aa Tu Vairi Di Chuka Ke Rakhe Shaal VeYou’re from Majha, you always make your enemies jump.
O Shaall Kothe Jiddi Maardi Aa Baggi Jatt DiThe Jatt’s white ride leaps as high as a rooftop.
Kai Sarhde Aa Dekh Ke Tarakki Jatt DiMany burn with envy when they see a Jatt’s success.
Taiyon Lagdi Aa Nigah Tainu Shakki Jatt DiThat’s why a Jatt’s gaze always seems suspicious.
Ve Hunde Badmashi Aale Geet Tere JattaYour songs are always about this outlaw life, Jatt.
Kahton Ched Di Aa Raag Billo Gall Gall TeWhy do you keep starting this tune over every little thing?
Tere Jatta Aa Dream Ve Daraawein ChaldeYour dreams are terrifying, my dear Jatt.
Tere Naal Maut De Parchave ChaldeThe shadows of death walk right alongside you.
O Velly Bande Raflaan Di Chaanve ChaldeOutlaws walk in the shadow of their firearms.
Jidaan Jatt Chalde Aa Bande Taanve ChaldeAnd where a Jatt walks, other men tread with care.
The song works as a direct argument about a violent life, with each singer presenting a conflicting viewpoint. She sees his actions as a source of fear, while he presents them as a mark of honor and status. The meaning of the Jidda Jatt Chalde lyrics comes from this unresolved tension between love and danger.
