Kikran De Phull Lyrics Translate to English » Arjan Dhillon

Mehkaan Raat Di Main Raani Wangu Tere Kolon Langhdi
I pass by you, fragrant like the ‘raat di rani’ flower, a jasmine that blooms at night.

I walk past you, scented like the queen of the night flower.
Zulfaan Di Chhaan Karaan, Chhaan Jiwein Amb Di
And I offer the shelter of my tresses, deep as the shade of a mango tree.

Nim Wangu Kauda Jeha Jhakda Aein Sade Val
You look at me with such bitterness, like the ‘nim’ tree, which is known for its bitter leaves.
Vigde Nawaban Wangra
Just like a spoiled prince would.

Picking them carefully, the way cotton is picked from the fields.

Kare Badnam Eh Jahan Kahton Kul Ve
Why does this world try to dishonour our names?
Yaara Sada Ishq Jeyon Post Da Phull Ve
My love, our romance is as delicate as a poppy flower.

What does the world gain from plucking them from their branches?
Kande ‘Arjana’ Raakhe Si Pugaake Lihaj Ve
‘Arjan’, the lyricist, says you kept your promises by enduring the thorns, my love.
Haan Deyan Phullan De Vi Aapde Ne Bhaag Ve
But even flowers of the same kind have their distinct fates.

Ikko Tahni Utte Khede Painde Aa Vichole Etthe

Nit Hi Punjab’an Wangra
As commonly as the daily affairs in the lands of Punjab.
