Bonafide’s Race Punjabi Lyrics English Translation
Kaptaan writes lines like, ‘Don’t ask my hands about the drinks they’ve poured, just ask the water,’ blending humility with boldness. The poet mentions a mansion in the ocean, black engines, and a Richard Mille watch, creating a vivid contrast between wealth and struggle.
Hathaan Naal Pack Chicke Na Ni Tu Paani Kolon PuchhDon’t ask my hands about the drinks they’ve poured, just ask the water.
Ni Main Kiho Jiha Raaja Meri Raani Kolon PuchhIf you want to know what kind of king I am, just ask my queen.
Maata Changaai Kahugi Sach Baapu Hi DasugaMother will only speak of my goodness, but Father will tell you the truth.
Keedi Dhaun Utte Challia Eh Chaaku Hi DasugaOnly the knife can tell you whose neck it has walked across.
Ehda Rabb Nu Hi Pata Kinna Rabb Nu Main MannanOnly God knows how much I truly believe in Him.
Eh MP M Te Laii RM BannaI have a submachine gun in the Mercedes, and a Richard Mille watch on my wrist.
Ni Main Dil Da Taan Changa Naale Rooh Ton Ni MaadaMy heart is good,
Oh Maada Hi Hunda Ae Jhehda Moonh Ton Ni Maadaand my soul isn’t bad; it’s the ones who are sweet to your face who are truly evil.
Hawa Ghatt Si Te Taan Vi Guddi Chad Ke Main RakkhiEven when the wind was low, I kept my kite flying high.
Loki Chiha Na Banaaude Aavgaar Ke Main RakkhiPeople wouldn’t even brew tea, but I kept the fire blazing.
Lahu Chadd Ke Rakaane Ni Main Bada Kujh PeetaGirl, apart from blood, I’ve had to drink a lot of bitter things to survive.
Haale Umar Ki Hoi Par Bada Kujh KeetaMy age is still young, but I’ve already achieved so much.
Addha Hath Ni Milaaunde Tainu Poore Hi MilageThey won’t even shake half a hand, but I’ll meet you fully.
Jadon Aileland Hoi Tainu Moohre Hi MilageWhen the war is declared, you’ll find me right at the front lines.
Hath Bass Vich Tang Par Cash Vich KhullaMy grip on control is tight, but my hand is open with cash.
Lutti Jaiye Vatti Jaiye Dekh Bulle Utte BullaWe loot it and we spend it; look, it’s just joy upon joy.
Hun Ditti Ni Drop Vibe Catch Kar LaiiI didn’t let the beat drop, I just caught the vibe.
Kuchh Karne Nu Hai Ni Si Main Aish Kar LaiiI had nothing else to do, so I just indulged in luxury.
Lahinja Duniyaan Ton Pare Kothi Saagar VichaaleFar away from the world, I have a mansion in the middle of the ocean,
Chitti Boat Te Mandaae Ghode Carbon Kaalewith a white boat and engines as black as carbon.
Tera Coconut Water Utte Lagge Aa SareerYour body runs on soft coconut water,
Asin Chaah Naal Kadd Laidi Dabbi Vicho Heerwhile we take ‘Heer’ (black gold) from the tin to have with our tea.
Kinni Door Takk Socha Mere Jaan De KareebiMy close ones know exactly how far ahead I think.
Eh Vi Shukriya Ohda Kade Dekhi Ni KareebiIt’s thanks to Him that I’ve never had to see poverty.
Tainu Sohne Da Ee Shonk Ni Main Lai Lai Ke RakhhanYou have a fondness for gold, so I keep buying and storing it.
Modify Karvaaiyan Tuzha Neeliyaan Ne AkhaanYou’ve gone and modified those blue eyes of yours.
Tainu Diggne Ni Dinde Banda Uddne Ni DindeI won’t let you fall, and I won’t let the enemy fly too high.
Bhaaven Tairna Ni Aunda Tainu Dubbne Ni DindeEven if you don’t know how to swim, I won’t let you drown.
Teri Charmer Cheeks Te Husn Aa LaatYour cheeks are charming and your beauty is like a flame.
Photo Ret Utte Pai Kal Bann Ke SikaarYour photo lay on the sand yesterday like a hunted prize.
Tainu Ghatt Ke Main Dekhaan Ni Tu Tulip Da PhullWhen I look closely at you, you’re like a Tulip flower.
Satto Vadh Ki Nu Pauna Auunda Nakhre Da MullWho knows how to pay the price for your tantrums better than me?
Tere Nakk Te Aakarr Ni Tu Dekhdi Ni ThalleThere’s arrogance on your nose; you never look down.
Tera Dil Chori Karne Da Kam Bada ChalleThe business of stealing your heart is doing very well.
Oh Kari Jaanda Meri Asin Manni Jaiye PaaneHe (God) keeps doing His work,
Saade Orderan Ch Add Ho Gaye English Thaaneand we accept His will, even as foreign police stations get added to our warrants.
Hath Changi Taan Hi Painda Ohde Naam Di Aa LattMy hand plays the game well only because I’m addicted to His name.
Loki Mehnat Ni Dekhde Ni Kahi Jaande LakkPeople don’t see the hard work, they just keep calling it ‘luck’.
Saanu Matter Ni Karde Snap De ScoreSnapchat scores don’t matter to us at all.
Asin Sajjan Da Jode Streak Laiie ToadWe’d rather break a streak to connect with a real friend.
Itthe Bahutiyan Nu Vehm Asin Paad Dyaange Race’anMany people here have the delusion that they’ll rip through the races.
Aunda Turna Ni Laaunde Kaptaan Naal Race’anThey don’t even know how to walk, yet they try to race with Kaptaan.
Aunda Turna Ni Laaunde Kaptaan Naal Race’anThey don’t even know how to walk, yet they try to race with Kaptaan.
