Bhupinder Babbal | Paradox’s Vally (Punjabi) Lyrics Translation
The main voice accepts his “vailly” or vagabond status, stating a conventional life does not fit him. He describes his existence as playing with death daily. Paradox’s verse adds that he leaves outcomes to a higher power and does not care about consequences.
Asin Born Pindan De, Goriye Tu Foreign Di JaayiWe’re born in the villages, girl, you were born abroad
Ro Roke Todengi, Haaye Hass Haske Jawein LaayiYou’ll end this in tears, this thing you’ve started with a smile
Pehliyan Ton Vigade Aa,We’ve been wild from the very start,
Goriye Tethon Kahda PardaGirl, what is there to hide from you?
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit Nai KardaCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit doesn’t fit us
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit NiCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit just doesn’t
Joda Rakhya Jeep’an DaI’ve got a pair of Jeeps
Ghodiyan Nachdiyan Vich TabeleHorses are dancing in the stables
Life Chaldi Risky AaLife is always risky
Ni Gabhru Roz Maut Naal KheleThis young man plays with death every day
Chaadra Sumre Dhart KudeMy ‘traditional waist-wrap’ sweeps the ground, girl
Pair Jatt Cheete Vaangu DhardaThis Jatt steps like a cheetah
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit Nai KardaCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit doesn’t fit us
Haan Vailly Hai Ji VaillyYes, I’m a vagabond, a vagabond indeed
Par Rakha Ni Kisi Se Bhi Hai BairBut I don’t hold a grudge against anyone
Pyaas Nahi Amrit Ki, Par Ki Kabhi Kabhi Chakha ZeherI don’t thirst for nectar, but sometimes I have tasted poison
Daan Jeevan Daan Mile Chhuke Maan Pita Ke PaerI receive the gift of life by touching my parents’ feet
Chhoda Sab Hai Bhole Baba Pe, Baaki Ka I Don’t CareI’ve left it all to ‘Bhole Baba’ (Lord Shiva), the rest I don’t care about
I Don’t Care Daily Nikla Karun GediI don’t care, I go for a ride every day
Fassa Bhi Fadde Mein, Par Chakkar Nahi Court Kacheri KeI get into trouble, but I avoid the mess of courts and cases
Sapne Tootte Jab Vairi Ke, Very Pain Hai Vairi KeWhen an enemy’s dreams are shattered, the enemy feels great pain
Chadh Le Mehnat Ki Ferry Pe, Are Kuchh Bhi Nahi Hai FairytaleGet on the ferry of hard work, hey, nothing is a fairytale
Imaginate! Sabse Bhadhiya EtiquettesImagine! The best etiquette
Very Late! Vairi Comes To HesitateVery late! The enemy starts to hesitate
Everyday, Mediate, Level-Up, Levitate,Everyday, meditate, level-up, levitate,
Everyday Apnon Ke Dil Mein Hota Hoon Main NavigateEveryday I navigate my way into the hearts of my loved ones
Ik Vaari Haan Kar Gayi, Baad Ch Naa Kahi Tera Ni SardaIf you say yes once, don’t say no later, you won’t be able to manage
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit Nai KardaCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit doesn’t fit us
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit Nai KardaCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit doesn’t fit us
Jawaani Chad Gayi Barood JahiMy youth has flared up like gunpowder
Karaan Das Maan Kyun Na Naare?Tell me, girl, why shouldn’t I be proud?
Hek Bhupinder Di Jattiye, Ni Paundi Bombay Takk KhalaareBhupinder’s powerful voice, girl, is causing a stir all the way to Bombay
Baaki Aape Check Kar LayinYou can check the rest for yourself
Baaki Aape Check Kar Layin, O Saade Vailpune Diyan FardaanYou can check the rest for yourself, the records of our troublemaking
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit Nai KardaCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit doesn’t fit us
Saanu Aakh Kudey Vailly, Saade Te OG Suit Nai KardaCall us vagabonds, girl, the OG suit doesn’t fit us
