Ranjit Bawa – Akh Mastani Lyrics in English (Translation)

Ve Baithi Sajjna Sheeshe Moohre
Ve Gutt Naagni Mainu Ghoore
Ve Tu Taan Sajjna Rahina Doore
Ve Tainu Udike Teri Hoore

My love, I sit in front of the mirror.
My long braid coils like a snake as it frames my beauty.
But you, my beloved, always stay far away.
While your beautiful girl keeps waiting for you.

Ve Surma Nazar Utaare Akh Mastani Di
Laindi Peeng Hulaare Chaddi Jawani Di
Laindi Peeng Hulaare Chaddi Jawani Di

The kohl in my enchanting eyes wards off every evil glance.
My youthful heart sways with excitement and joy.
My youthful heart sways with excitement and joy.

Karke Friendship Aukhi Howan
Ve Naale Hassan Naale Rowan
Ve Daag Hijr De Baithi Dhowan
Ve Kaash Main Tere Kole Howan

Falling in love with you has made life difficult.
I laugh, and I cry as well.
I sit trying to wash away the scars of our separation.
How I wish I could be by your side.

Ve Saar Kyon Nahi Lainda Maa Deya Chann Makhana
Ajj Kall Kithe Rehnda Maan Deya Chann Makhana
Ajj Kall Kithe Rehnda Maan Deya Chann Makhana O

Why don’t you care about me, my moon-like beloved?
Where have you been these days, my moon-like beloved?
Where have you been these days, my moon-like beloved?

Haaye Pagg Bann Ke Jaddon Saave Kharada Haaye
Hikk Meri Te Naag Jiha Larhda
Ve Sakhiyan Aakhan Ehde Warga
Haaye Saanu Vi Kitte Mil Jaaye Ghar Da

Oh, when you stand before me wearing your turban with pride,
My heart twists and stirs like a restless snake.
My friends say they wish they could find someone just like you.
They wish someone from a good home like you would come into their lives too.

Ve Jachde Me And You Sadke Main Jaawan
Kinna Sohna Tu Sadke Main Jaawan
Kinna Sohna Tu Ve Sadke Main Jaawan

You and I look so perfect together—I could give everything for us.
You’re incredibly handsome, I would gladly give myself for you.
You’re so handsome, I would gladly give myself for you.

Ve Bains Bains Tera Desh Punjab Ae
Haye Duniya Vich Ae Laajwaab Ae
Ve Main Raavi Te Tu Chanab Ae
Vasa Tere Naal Eho Khwaab Ae

Oh Bains, your homeland is the beautiful land of Punjab.
There is truly no place like it anywhere in the world.
I am the Ravi, and you are the Chenab.
My only dream is to build a life with you.

Ve Tainu Chhad Ke Kadey Na Jaawan
Jug Jug Tu Jeeve Teri Aayi Main Marjaawan
Jug Jug Tu Jeeve, Aayi Main Marjaawan
Ve Jug Jug Tu Jeeve O

I could never leave you.
May you live a long and happy life, even if I have to give mine for yours.
May you live a long and happy life, even if I have to give mine for yours.
May you live forever, my beloved.
