Haye Khushboo Eh Tere Shehar Di
Oh, the lovely fragrance of your city!
Khushboo Eh Tere Shehar Di
Oh, the lovely fragrance of your city!

Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye, Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
If you don’t want to make me your lover, make me your anklet.
Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
Make me your anklet if you don’t want to make me your lover.

Oh Apni Tali De Utte Dil Rakh Ke
When it (a fish) noticed you, it placed her life in jeopardy
Pani Vicho Bahar Aa Gayi Tainu Tak Ke, Tainu Tak Ke
And jumped out of the water.
Haye Mashli Mitti Ch Tairdi, Mashli Mitti Ch Tairdi
The fish is now swimming on the ground.

Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye, Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
If you don’t want to be my boyfriend, at least make me your anklet.
Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye, Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
Make me your anklet instead of your lover if you don’t want to be my lover.

Tu Jihna Chhawein Behndi Si Dharti Nal Lad Aa Gaye
The trees you used to sit beneath fought the soil and arrived here.
Oh Paid Vi Chal’keHusan Waleya Tere Ghar Aa Gaye
Oh, darling one, those trees came to your home as well.

Aisa Tera Noor Aisa Aisiyan Zulfan
The glow on your face and your gorgeous hair…
Pagal Karde Bande Nu Jo Waisiyan Zulfan
are enough to drive any guy insane.
Oh Sohn Pind Wali Nehar Di, Oh Sohn Pind Wali Nehar Di
I swear by the canal that runs through our village.

Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
If you don’t want me to be your lover, make me your anklet.
Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
Make me your anklet instead of your sweetheart, if you must choose.

Teri Gali Nu Chumage Fir Shehar Nu Chumage
I’ll kiss the streets that lead to your home first, then your city.
Tere Pair Di Jhanjar Ban’keTere Pair Nu Chumage
Later, I shall become the anklet on your feet and kiss them.
Tu Shakal Na Vekhi Gair Di, Tu Shakal Na Vekhi Gair Di,
Please don’t look at anybody else.

Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
Make me your anklet instead of your lover if you don’t want to be my lover.
Je Yar Ni Banauna Goriye Mainu Jhanjar Bana Lai Pair Di
If you don’t want to be my boyfriend, at least make me your anklet.
