Lehmber Hussainpuri – Manke Song Lyrics and Meaning

Jehde Rakhde Ni Pair Dohan Badiyan Ch
Langde Na Paar Vairne
Jehde Rakhde Ni Pair Dohan Badiyan Ch
Langde Na Paar Vairne

Those who try to keep a foot in both camps
Never make it across, girl.
Those who try to stand on both sides
Never reach the other shore, girl.

Jine Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Jinne Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

As many beads as there are in the necklace around your neck,
That’s how many lovers you have, girl.
As many beads as your necklace holds,
That’s how many admirers you have, girl.

Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

Yes, that many lovers of yours, girl.

Tere Mishri Ton Vadh Mithe Bol
12-Bore Di Bandook Japde
Panja Unglaan Ch Chhalle Bewafai Da Ni
Sajra Saboot Japde

Your words are sweeter than sugar crystals,
Yet they hit like a 12-bore shotgun.
The rings on your fingers speak of unfaithfulness,
Like fresh evidence of betrayal.

Tere Mishri Ton Vadh Mitthe Bol
12-Bore Di Bandook Japde
Panja Unglaan Ch Chhalle Bewafai Da Ni
Sajra Saboot Japde

Your speech is sweeter than candy,
But it strikes like a shotgun blast.
Those rings on your fingers hint at disloyalty,
As if they are newly found proof.

Ni Tu Car’an Di Hawa Ch
Na Main Yaara Di Hawa Ch
Ni Tu Car’an Di Hawa Ch
Na Main Yaara Di Hawa Ch

You are carried away by wealth and status,
And I by the pride of my friends.
You live in the glamour of fancy cars,
While I live among my loyal companions.

Kinna Yaari Te Gaddari Vich Fasla Ni
Tu Ki Jane Saar Vairne

How vast the distance is between loyalty and betrayal,
What would you know about it, girl?

Jine Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Jine Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

As many beads as your necklace has,
That’s how many lovers you have, girl.
As many beads as hang around your neck,
That’s how many admirers follow you, girl.

Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

Yes, that many lovers of yours.
That many indeed, girl.

Assi Samajh Baithe Si Rabb
Tereyan Ni Nainan Ch Pyar Dekh Ke
Jhutt Mukri Zubaano
Vaade Bhull Gayi Ni
Heereyan De Haar Dekh Ke

I had come to see God
After seeing love in your eyes.
But your tongue denied it all with lies,
You forgot your promises,
After being dazzled by diamond necklaces.

Assi Samajh Baithe Si Rabb
Tereyan Ni Nainan Ch Pyar Dekh Ke
Jhutt Mukri Zubaano
Vaade Bhull Gayi Ni
Heereyan De Haar Dekh Ke

I thought I had found something divine
Looking into your loving eyes.
Yet you backed away with false words
And abandoned your vows
For the lure of diamonds.

Jadon Dhall Gayi Jawani
Labbhne Ni Dil Jaani
Jadon Dhal Gayi Jawani
Labbhne Ni Dil Jaani

When your youth fades away,
You won’t find hearts so easily, dear.
Once your youthful days are gone,
Finding true love won’t be easy.

Hoju Tapde Kaleje Wali Agg Teri
Ohdon Thandi Thar Vairne

The fire burning inside your heart
Will finally cool down then, girl.

Jinne Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Jinne Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

As many beads as your necklace contains,
That’s how many lovers you have, girl.
As many beads as are strung around your neck,
That’s how many admirers belong to you.

Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

Yes, that many lovers of yours.
That many indeed, girl.

Laake Lehmber De Naal
Hun Yaariyan Tu Saymeh Nu
Pehchan Di Vi Nahi
Hun Aakhdi Ae Nirmaljeet Kaun
Main Tan Ohnu Jaandi Vi Nahi

After joining hands with Lehmber,
You’ve now become close to Saymeh.
And don’t even recognize me anymore.
Now you ask, “Who is Nirmaljeet?”
“I don’t even know him,” you say.

Laake Lehmber De Naal
Hun Yaariyan Tu Saymeh Nu
Pehchan Di Vi Nahi
Hun Aakhdi Ae Nirmaljeet Kaun
Main Tan Ohnu Jaandi Vi Nahi

After making new connections
And finding new companions,
You act as though you don’t know me.
Now you ask who Nirmaljeet is,
Claiming you’ve never known him.

Ni Tu Jaan Vi Layengi
Tu Pachan Vi Layengi
Ni Tu Jaan Vi Layengi
Tu Pachan Vi Layengi

One day you’ll understand,
And you’ll recognize the truth.
You’ll come to realize it,
And see things clearly.

Chadhi Kina Ku Kalol Das Karegi
Jawani Din Chaar Vairne

Tell me, how long can this carefree pride last?
Youth lasts only a few days, girl.

Jine Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Jinne Gall De Gani De Tere Manke Ni
Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

As many beads as your necklace holds,
That’s how many lovers you have, girl.
As many beads as hang around your neck,
That’s how many admirers you have.

Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne
Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

Yes, that many lovers of yours.
That many indeed, girl.

Sachi Ni Tere Yaar Vairne
Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

Truly, you have so many lovers, girl.
Yes, that many lovers.

Sachi Ni Tere Yaar Vairne
Ni Ohne Tere Yaar Vairne

Honestly, you have countless admirers.
That many lovers indeed.

Sachi Ni Tere Yaar Vairne
Haaye Ni Tere Yaar Vairne

Truly, that’s how it is, girl.
Oh girl, so many lovers of yours.
