In the sun-drenched dunes of “Sun Sajna,” Deep Jandu and Chitralekha Sen weave a Punjabi soundscape pulsating with Arabian rhythms and lyrics that paint a passionate portrait of love amidst danger. Fateh Shergill’s lyrics are brilliant, dancing between the girl’s need for commitment (“fill vermilion on my forehead”) and the guy’s confession of a dangerous existence (“knife-wielding shadows chase me”).
Deep Jandu’s Punjabi raps flow like desert winds, painting a picture of a man on the edge, “soaring like the sky, yet grounded in dust.” His voice, raw and passionate, reflects the thrill and trepidation of life on the razor’s edge. Chitralekha Sen, adorned in flowing robes like Aladdin’s Jasmine, counters with Hindi verses that drip with surrender (“I have to go with you”). Vishakha Raghav’s mesmerizing dance in the music video, echoing the graceful undulations of desert dunes, further amplifies the song’s intoxicating blend of sensuality and suspense.
Composer Deep Jandu’s brilliance lies in crafting a soundscape that evokes the mystique of the Arabian Nights. The music, a fusion of pulsating beats and haunting desert melodies, transports you to a world of hidden passions and whispered promises. Dilsher Singh and Khushpal Singh’s direction in the music video masterfully complements the song’s theme, painting every frame with vibrant colours and simmering tension.
SUN SAJNA SONG LYRICS
Sun Sajna Sun Sajna, Bharde Mang Tu Meri Balma,
Tere Liye Har Roz, Main Panghat Pe Ati Hoon Zalma,
Pani Toh Bahana Hai, Maine Sang Tere Jana Hai,
Jana Hai Jana Hai, Maine Tujhko Pana Hai,
Ni Panj Satt Mundeya Di Buklan Ch Shure A
Ni Badlan Ton Utte Aa Zameen Na Vi Jude A
Rahvan Ch Maut Firdi Hilaundi Lak Alde,
Ni Akhan Vi Tan Maut Di Akhan Ch Pake Mude A
Kitho Bhaldi Pyar Ni Oh Asle Da Yar,
Das Rakh Lengi Rakh Lengi,
Yari Tan Layi Mutiyare,
Je Mitran Nal Kat Layengi Kat Layengi,
Yari Tan Layi Mutiyare,
Je Mitran Nal Kat Layengi Kat Layengi, Ho!
Jodiyan Ne Gunan Ni Saheliyan Ni Jodiyan,
Ni Dilan Ch Bnaye Than Havehliyan Ni Jodiyan,
Kita Bhavein Thoda Par Kita Tan Zarur Ae,
Vehlean De Wangu Ni Paheliyan Ni Jodiyan,
Aukhe Aa Sokhe Aa Okay Aa Har Hal Ni,
Pange Dange Aa Langhe Aa Jine Sal Ni,
Dukiyan Tikiyan Gole Je Beggi Badshah,
Yaran Da Yaka Ni Karuga Vada Hadsa,
Bilo Tan Hi Vatayi Chale Mundiyan,
Je Hadhan Bane Tap Layengi Tap Layengi,
Yari Tan Layi Mutiyare,
Je Mitran Nal Kat Layengi Kat Layengi,
Yari Tan Layi Mutiyare,
Je Mitran Nal Kat Layengi Kat Layengi, Ho!
Ho Iss Mausam Ne Aag Lagayi, Kuch Na Samjha Tu Harjayi,
Bin Tere Mere Dil Ka Kabse, Pada Hai Soona Angna,
Sun Sajna Sun Sajna, Bharde Mang Tu Meri Balma,
Tere Liye Har Roz, Main Panghat Pe Ati Hoon Zalma,
Pani Toh Bahana Hai, Maine Sang Tere Jana Hai,
Jana Hai Jana Hai, Maine Tujhko Pana Hai.
But “Sun Sajna” is more than a musical getaway to an exotic land. The lyrics pose a poignant question: can love bloom in the shadow of danger? The chorus, “Only fall in love with me if you can handle it,” hangs heavy in the air, a cautionary note amidst the passionate declarations. This duality, this dance between desire and doubt, makes “Sun Sajna” compelling.
