Elly Mangat | Vadda Grewal • From “Full Desi”
Sniff Lyrics Translation (from “Full Desi”)
Deep Balran repeats the challenge ‘Dass tu nashedhi kolon ki paldi’ as a barrier to intimacy. Grewal admits smoking 1,800 cigarettes yearly and needing substances for calmness. Balran contrasts inner storms when sober with artificial peace during intoxication.
Ni Gal Sun Thoddi Utte Til WaaliyeHey, listen to me, you with the mole on your chin.
Main Suneya Dil Dul Haari FirdiI’ve heard you’ve gone and lost your heart to me.
Unjh Tere Bade Ne Aashiq Town ChOtherwise, you’ve got plenty of lovers in this town.
Kehnde Mere Karke Kawari FirdiThey say you’re staying single just for my sake.

Munda Taithon Jama Hi Ulat GoriyeThis guy is the total opposite of you, beautiful.
Phookda Ae 1800 Cigarette Saal DiI smoke eighteen hundred cigarettes every year.
