Guru Randhawa’s Kithe Vasde Ne Lyrics [English Meaning]
Jo Akhiyan Ch Paani Rakhde Ne, Oh Loki Kidaan Hassde Ne
How do people who always have tears in their eyes manage to laugh?
Jo Dil Chon Nikaale Jande Ne, Oh Loki Kithe Vassde Ne
Where do people who are cast out from someone’s heart find a place to live?
Ohna Nu Khaali Khaali Kyun Lagda, Saara Jahaan Te Saara Aasmaan
Why does the entire world and the whole sky feel so empty to them?
Allah Nu Gall Dasde Ne Oh Saari, Kise Nu Na Jo Dassde Ne
They tell God everything, matters they do not disclose to anyone else.
Jo Akhiyan Ch Paani Rakhde Ne, Oh Loki Kidaan Hassde Ne
How do people who always have tears in their eyes manage to laugh?
Jo Dil Chon Nikaale Jande Ne, Oh Loki Kithe Vassde Ne
Where do people who are cast out from someone’s heart find a place to live?
Dil Todan Waleyan Kolon Kade Saza Ni Puchhi Di
One does not ask those who break hearts about any punishment for their actions.
Te Chhad Jaaan Wale Ton Kade Wajah Ni Puchi Di
And one does not ask for a reason from those who decide to leave.
Jo Aakhri Saah Te Hove Ohda Haal Ni Puchida
One should not inquire about the well-being of a person who is taking their last breath.
Kisein Aahique Nu Judayiyan Wala Saal Ni Puchida
A lover should not be asked about the specific year of their separation;
Saal Ni Puchhida
one simply does not ask about such a year.
Oh Hass-Hass Jar Jande Ne, Sadaa Jo Lokki Tanne Kasde Ne
They endure with a smile the constant taunts that people direct towards them.
Jo Akhiyan Ch Paani Rakhde Ne, Oh Loki Kidaan Hassde Ne
How do people who always have tears in their eyes manage to laugh?
Jo Dil Chon Nikaale Jande Ne, Oh Loki Kithe Vassde Ne
Where do people who are cast out from someone’s heart find a place to live?
