Arjan Dhillon – Counting Gems Lyrics in English (Translation)

Ho lakk hawa nalon haula
Lengha bhara sohniye
Bhara sohniye
Bhara sohniye

Your waist is lighter than the wind
Yet your lehenga feels heavy, beautiful girl
So heavy, beautiful girl
So heavy, beautiful girl

Ni kehda lutti firdi aa
Suniyara sohniye
Suniyara sohniye
Suniyara sohniye

Which jeweler have you robbed?
O beautiful girl
Beautiful girl
Beautiful girl

Haye ki ki billo
Nava hi banaya
Ni appe mainu das de
Tu ki ki ae paaya

Oh girl, what all
Have you newly crafted?
Come on, tell me yourself
What all are you wearing?

Ho kinne tole haan diye
Payi firdi ae
Socha vich Chhinnde di

How many tolas of gold
Are you carrying around?
Poor Chhinnda is lost in thoughts of it

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry

Haye tere Gehne ginn de di
Haye tere Gehne ginn de di

Just counting your jewelry
Just counting your jewelry
Just counting your jewelry
Just counting your jewelry

Ho dhaun surahi teri
Sohni lagge dugni
Ni sohni lagge dugni

Your swan-like neck
Looks twice as beautiful
Yes, twice as beautiful

Haye single taveet ni
Taveetaan thalle jugni
Taveetaan thalle jugni

A single amulet
With a jugni hanging beneath the charms
Hanging beneath the charms

Ho chann kolon reshmaa hai
Lutt ke le aya ni
Jhummar pasa
Khabbe paase laya ni

It feels as though silk threads
Were stolen from the moon for you
That jhumar ornament
Has been placed on the left side

Ho saggi phull naal billo tika
Ni taareyan nu payi jaave
Haan diye nika

With the floral ornament and tika, girl
You outshine even the stars
With your glow

Ho tainu kinni wah wah hundi
Te ki kehne ginn de di

You receive endless admiration
Who could ever count it all?

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry

Haye sona sohna ae
Sone da na sohna
Haye sona keemti ae
Sone da bhaa sohna

Gold is beautiful
But not as beautiful as you
Gold is precious
And worth a fortune

Haye sona sohniye
Aap ena sohna kithe
Paaya sohneya ne sona
Lagge taan sohna

But tell me, beautiful girl
Where could gold itself be this lovely?
Only because a beauty like you wears it
Does the gold look beautiful

Ho nath paundiyan ve
Aaiyan tere nakk vich koka
Ni nakk vich koka

When you wear the nose ring
That koka shines upon your nose
Shines upon your nose

Tu hajje firdi kuwari
Dinda phirda ae hoka
Ni phirda ae hoka ni

You still roam around unmarried
Yet hearts keep calling after you
They keep calling after you

Ho sannu patt di aa phiran
Peepal pattiyan
Haye kokru ton luttna
Schemean dassiya

You sway around teasing us
Like trembling peepal leaves
You’ve learned little tricks
To steal hearts away

Haye gallan teriyan nu
Aun chumm chumm ke
Haye haan diye
Tere naal mardiye thumke

Your words make one wish
To kiss them again and again
O beautiful girl
We dance wildly beside you

Tu saade ton ki ki badle
Laine ginn de di

Who knows what all
You’ll demand from us in return?

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry

Haye tere Gehne ginn de di
Haye tere Gehne ginn de di
Haye tere Gehne ginn de di
Haye tere Gehne ginn de di

Just counting your jewelry
Just counting your jewelry
Just counting your jewelry
Just counting your jewelry

Ho kangne te gajjre ne
Veeni da shingar ni
Haye veeni da shingar ni

Your bangles and flower ornaments
Beautify your braid
Beautify your braid beautifully

Ho wangan kacchiya chadhawe
Jadon paunda koi pyaar ni
Haye paunda koi pyaar ni

Glass bangles are worn
When love begins to blossom
When someone falls in love

Ho bhaave taliyan te mehndi ne
Dene jagah
Shagana na jamme
Tainu chudeyan da chaah

Even though your palms are filled with mehndi
Leaving no empty space
Still your heart longs
For bridal bangles and wedding joys

Haye aakh de aa
Jhanjran de bor ni
Haye Arjan bina ni
Tu chaundi koi hor ni

Even the anklets seem to say
They belong only to you
Without Arjan
You desire no one else

Ho sannu kinne vich
Ehe sab kujj paine
Ginn de di

How much will all this
End up costing us?
We keep counting and wondering

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry

Haye meri saari dihadi
Langg jugi
Tere Gehne ginn de di

My entire day
Would pass away
Just counting your jewelry
