Petals Meaning & Lyrics (Akanksha Bhandari | Jai Dhir)
JAI DHIR writes about love that turns paper into a garden. He writes the line, ‘When I write about you, the pages turn into a garden.’ He describes the words as petals scattering down and the scent filling the air.
Thandi raataan vich vi mai teri yaadaan vich jalda reha kudeEven in these cold nights, I’ve been burning in your memories, girl.
Akkhan suttiyan ni band kar battiyan mai jagdaMy eyes didn’t sleep; I’ve been staying awake even after turning off the lights
Reha kudestaying awake, girl.
Sir te aa sooraj chadeya aeThe sun has risen high above,
Tera khayaal ni mudeya aebut your thoughts haven’t left my mind.
Baadalan de vangu challan jitthe mennu leke jandiyan hawaavan kudeI drift like the clouds wherever the winds carry me, girl.
Likha tere baare bane kaagaz ne baagWhen I write about you, the pages turn into a garden,
Kalam vi meri ban jandi a gulaaband even my pen becomes a rose.
Akkhar ne vangu pattiyan deThe words are like petals
Thalle bikhar di jaavethat keep scattering down,
Naale mehek rahe ne alfaazand these lyrics are fragrant too.
Likha tere baare bane kaagaz ne baagWhen I write about you, the pages turn into a garden.
Kalam vi meri ban jandi a gulaabMy pen becomes a rose,
Akkhar ne vangu pattiyan deand the words are like petals
Thalle bikhar di jaavethat keep scattering down,
Naale mehek rahe ne alfaazand these lyrics are fragrant too.
Hojangi teri tu karle sabarI’ll be yours, just have some patience;
Pyaar koi khel ni lamba safarlove isn’t a game, it’s a long journey.
Chaundi an mai vi teI want this too, but
Naal hi dardi anI’m scared at the same time.
Dovan nu lag je kite na nazarLest the evil eye falls on both of us.
Laggiyan me karn bharosa veI’ve started to trust you;
Dil na tu todinga waada karpromise me you won’t break my heart.
Hun yaadaan ch ni baahaan vich langniyaNow, the nights won’t pass in memories but in your arms,
Raataan saariya jaan veall these nights, my love.
Likha tere baare bane kaagaz ne baagWhen I write about you, the pages turn into a garden,
Kalam vi meri ban jandi a gulaaband even my pen becomes a rose.
Akkhar ne vangu pattiyan deThe words are like petals.
Thalle bikhar di jaaveThey keep scattering down,
Naale mehek rahe ne alfaazand these lyrics are fragrant too.
MmmMmm.
Band akhaan vich vi disdiEven with my eyes closed, I see
Tasveer teri aeyour image.
Baitha vede vich mai kallaI’m sitting alone in the courtyard
Te udeek teri aeand waiting for you;
Vad gaiyan ne dhadkanamy heartbeats have increased.
Kive kaabu kar lavaanHow do I control them?
Jism raahaan tak ni thakdaMy body doesn’t tire of waiting on these paths,
Rooh nu reej teri aemy soul yearns for you.
Jism raahaan tak ni thakdaMy body doesn’t tire of waiting on these paths,
Rooh nu reej teri aemy soul yearns for you.
Likha tere baare bane kaagaz ne baagWhen I write about you, the pages turn into a garden,
Kalam vi meri ban jandi a gulaaband even my pen becomes a rose.
Akkhar ne vangu pattiyan deThe words are like petals.
Thalle bikhar di jaaveThey keep scattering down,
Naale mehek rahe ne alfaazand these lyrics are fragrant too.
Likha tere baare bane kaagaz ne baagWhen I write about you, the pages turn into a garden.
Oh akkhar ne vangu pattiyan deOh, the words are like petals.
Thalle bikhar di jaaveThey keep scattering down,
Naale mehek rahe ne alfaazand these lyrics are fragrant too.
