License’an Te Chadhaun Da Ni
Moddhe Lamkaun Da Culture

It’s not about carrying weapons
Or showing them off with licenses
Or hanging them on shoulders as a display

Saade Haan Diye
Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture
Saade Haan Diye
Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture
Saade Haan Diye
Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture

Where we belong
We believe in standing by our friendships
Where we belong
Loyalty in friendship is our culture
Where we belong
Keeping bonds strong is our culture

Ho Kaahnu Hunni Ae Hairan
Gall Sunn Meri Jaan
Ni Ae Saare Jatt Att
Jehde Naal 5-7
Aa Hi Tolleya Ch Aun Da Culture

Why are you so surprised?
Listen to me, my dear
These Jatts are fearless by nature
The few who stay together
That’s just the culture of moving in groups

Saade Haan Diye
Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture
Saade Haan Diye
Hai Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture

Where we belong
We know how to honor friendships
Where we belong
Loyalty is part of who we are

Haye Uth Ke Mili Da
Gall Naal Layi Da
Pehli Gall Puchi Diya
Kehda Pind Bai Da

We stand up to greet people
And welcome them with a hug
The first thing we ask is
“Brother, which village are you from?”

Ho Lukoyio Marr Jaiye
Aaye Gaye Subha Ne
Aa Jo Baihne Aa
Keh Ke Ni Chetti
Dinde Naiyo Jaane

We’d rather die than hide ourselves
People come and go every day
But once someone sits with us
We never quickly say
“Alright, now leave.”

Saade Counter Ni Hundi
Assi Adh Paine Aa
Bill Den Piche
Mittra Na Ladh Paine Aa

We don’t split bills at counters
We jump in to pay ourselves
And over paying the bill
Friends almost start arguing

Ho Bakre Badaun Da Ni
Bottle’an Muka Mudh Mudh Ke
Karaun Da Culture

It’s not about slaughtering goats
Or finishing bottle after bottle
Again and again for show

Saade Haan Diye
Hai Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture

Where we belong
Friendship and loyalty define us
Where we belong
Keeping friendships alive is our culture

Ho Je Ethe Kitte Ho Je
Amrika Aala Hisaab
Koi Weapon Ni Rehna
Jehda Hona Ni Punjab

If things here ever became
Like the ways of America
There wouldn’t be a single weapon
That Punjab wouldn’t already have

Haye Aide Violent Vi Ni
Jinne Lok Dassde
Saanu Guru’an Ne Keha
Assi Taa Rakhde

But we’re not as violent
As people claim we are
Our Gurus taught us values
And we still follow them

Ho Rehn De Ni Kaahnu
Aivei Shaunka Baare Puche
Gaddi Laine Aa Jinne Di
Ohne La Deyi’e Utte

Leave it, why ask so much
About hobbies and passions?
Whatever a car costs us
We spend just as much modifying it

Haye Gedhe-Guddhe Laun Da
Drift’an Maraun Da
Ni Tochan Phasaun Da Culture

Going on carefree drives
Pulling drifts for thrill
And getting tractors stuck in mud — that’s our style

Saade Haan Diye
Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture
Saade Haan Diye
Haye Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture

Where we belong
Loyalty in friendship is our culture
Where we belong
Standing by your people is our culture

Haye Ohna Chirr Koi
Shuru Naiyo Hoya Inqalab
Billo Jinna Chir Moohre Nahiyo Laggeya Punjab

No revolution truly begins
Without Punjab stepping forward
Until Punjab stands at the front

Haye Annkhi Etho Da
Bacha Bacha Sohniye
Sada Takhta Nu
Kaddiya Ni Ankha Sohniye

Every child here
Carries pride within them, girl
Toward our honor and throne
We never raise disrespectful eyes

Pyaar Pave Dil
Ishqe Ch Rangg Laine Aa
Pave Vair Masle Je Aa
Tangg Laine Aa

If love touches our hearts
We immerse ourselves fully in it
And if conflict or rivalry comes
We face it head-on too

Ho Dukhde Vandaun Da Ni
Langar Vi Laun Da Ni
Bhukkhe Ni Rijhaun Da Culture

We believe in sharing each other’s pain
In serving food through langar
And feeding the hungry with care

Saade Haan Diye
Haye Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture
Saade Haan Diye
Haye Yaaria Nibhaun Da Culture

Where we belong
Loyalty in friendship is our culture
Where we belong
Standing by your people is our culture
Where we belong
Keeping friendships true is our culture
