Satinder Sartaaj • From “Seven Rivers”
Seven Rivers’s Qaseeda Punjabi Lyrics English Meaning
Sartaaj frames communication as survival – ‘words run out when confessing isn’t easy’ underscores lyrical anxiety. He specifies alternatives to grand gestures: ‘Find every way to make it happen if you just listen once.’ The lyricist prioritizes mutual recognition over demands, warning ‘I’ll walk away quietly’ without heart-to-heart connection.

Aa Bada Aukha Hunda Ji Lafaz Mukk JaandeAh, it’s so difficult, words just run out,
Hove Kar Na Asaan Izhaar Jewhen confessing one’s feelings isn’t easy.

Main Kitta Jazbe Da Dariya Na Paar Jeif I don’t cross this river of emotion.

Phullan Vichon Main Ni Jehde Dhakke NaalI’m not one of those who would forcefully,
Pakeeza Jehe Pyar Vich Waad De Guroor Niintroduce arrogance into a pure and simple love.

Taan Phir Chup Chap Chale Jaange Door Nithen I’ll just walk away, quietly and far away.

Qaseeda Music Video
Seven Rivers delivers lyrical meaning through vulnerable economy. Sartaaj’s translation into English lyrics reveals negotiations between cultural tradition and contemporary emotional directness. The album positions Qaseeda as meditation on how minimal acknowledgment outweighs elaborate romance.
