kade pattian di gal…

An awesome poetry. I don’t know the name of the writer. Gurdeep Singh sung this in his second album Hook. The whole album is a must listen. Awesome poetry and voice !

kade pattian gi gal
kade tahnian di gal
sanu das ja ni vaaye sade hanian di gal
kade pattian di gal…

kade soorjan ton puchan
kade tarian ton puchan
maruthal te jhana de kinarian ton puchan
koi dasda na lang chukke panian di gal
kade pattian di gal…

kade takkre tan aakhin uhnu edharo b lange
sada rom rom khair uhdi zindagi di mange
kade sun jaye akhian nimanian di gal
kade pattian di gal…

uhde bolan wich ambaran de geet sutte rehnde
uhde hassian chon rangle gulab ugg painde
uhnu yaad si mohabattan puranian di gal
kade pattian di gal…

chale to kat hi jeyga safar…

One of my all time favourite songs. Beautifully sung by Musarrat Nazir. Awesome lyrics:

chale to kat hi jeyga safar
ahista ahista

hum uske paas jate the
magar ahista ahista

abi taaron se khelo
chand ki kirno se ithlao
milegi uske chehre ki sahar
ahista ahista

(ithlao – play with)

dareecho ko to dekho
chilmanon ke raaz to samjho
uthayenge parda haye baam-o-dar
ahista ahista

(dareecho – ?,chilmanon – ?, baam – housetop or roof, dar – door)

yun hi ik roz apne dil ka qissa b suna dena
khita ahista ahista
nazar ahista ahista

(khita – to address)

chale to kat hi jeyga safar
ahista ahista

Punjab

One of my friend sent some paintings in a mail. Just reminded me of those golden old days. So thought about posting here.

A kite flying scene from a village where 3 kids are getting ready to fly their machine in the air. These ready made kites are today’s play. In those days kids used to make kites on their own, either from polythene bags or newspapers.

A young boy tie’ing his turban. See how he has adjusted the mirror 🙂

A typical scene from a school in a village of Punjab. These days teachers don’t give these kind of punishments. But I have seen this happening when I did my 10th [In 1998]

Kids playing gulli-danda, one of the most played games of those times. Generally in summer vacations kids used to play this for hours, even in the noon when sun was on the top. Then Moms will go out and bring the kids back home and ask them to sleep.

lazzat-e-gam bada deejiye…

This one is sung by Munni Begum. I couldn’t find the name of the writer. You can listen to it here on pz10.

lazzat-e-gam bada deejiye
aap yun muskara deejiye…

keemat-e-dil bata deejiye
khaaq le kar uda deejiye…

aap andhere mein kab tak rahein
fer koi ghar jala deejiye…

chand kab tak gehan mein rahe
aap zulfein hata deejiye…

mera daaman bahut saaf hai
koi tohmat laga deejiye…

ik samundar ne avaaz di
mujhko paani pila deejiye

oh bada be-lihaaz…

A beautiful song by Surinder Kaur. I don’t know the writer’s name. You can listen to it here.

oh bada be-lihaaz ki kariye
bewafa da ilaaz ki kariye…

tere gam da b ki bharosa e
shai begani mizaz ki kariye…

daadhe vikhre ne pyar de painde
dil je na aave na baaz ki kariye…

kache ghadian ne paar ki launae
lagge ishqe nu laaz ki kariye…

tainu bhulna tan kujh nahi mushkil
jhalle dil da ilaaz ki kariye…
