Water Lyrics English Translation – Diljit Dosanjh
Tainu Vekhiye Taan Akh Neend Paindi Ae
Mohabbat Aake Sohniye Tere Chaubaare Behndi Ae
Only after I have seen you will my eyes fall asleep.
Love comes and sits in your courtyard, beautiful.
Ammi Kehndi Ae Teri Ni Kаlа Tikka Laya Kаr,
Ni Sachi Tere Te Meri Buri Nazаr Rehndi Ae,
Lokaan Ne Ki Kehna, Ki Laina
Mother says to you, “Apply a black tikka (a mark on the forehead, believed to ward off evil).”
Because, honestly, my evil eye is on you.
What will people say? What does it matter?
Saari Duniya Bhula Ke Aa
Ni Adiye Paani Da Paani Da, Rang Chadhake Aa
Come, forgetting the whole world.
Girl, come colored in the color of water, the color of water.
Je Apaan Mill Jaiye Bhul Jaiye, Ik Dooje Da Naa
Ni Adiye Pаni Dа Pani Da Rang Chadhаke A,
Rаng Chаdhake A,
If we meet, let’s forget each other’s names.
Girl, come colored in the color of water, the color of water.
Come colored.
Bul Tere Ne Jinvein Gulaabi, Bullaan Te Dhund Rehndi Aa
Teri Mathi-Mathi Loh, Ni Saadi Rooh Teh Paindi Aa
Your lips are like rose petals; mist resides on them.
Your gentle light falls on my soul.
Ni Main Lutteya Gaya, Ni Tainu Pyaar Karke
Dowein Beh Gaye, Beh Gaye Ni Akhaan Chaar Karke
I have been robbed of loving you.
We both sat, sat, and our eyes met.
Ni Aidaan Koi Dil Lai Jaand, Ni Main Suneya Kade Vi Naa
Ni Adiye Paani Da, Paani Da Rang Chadhake Aa
That someone could steal a heart like this, I had never heard.
Girl, come colored in the color of water.
Je Apaan Mill Jaiye Bhul Jaiye Ik Dooje Da Naa
Ni Adiye Paani Da Paani Da
If we meet, let’s forget each other’s names.
Girl, come colored in the color of water.
Rang Chadhake Aa, Rang Chadhake Aa
Ni Adiye Rang Chadhake Aa
Come colored, come colored.
Girl, come colored.
Aake Ab Dono Be Karaar Ho Jayein
Rokein Naa Rukein Ishq Ka Abshaar Ho Jayein
Come, let both of us become restless now.
Let the waterfall of love flow unrestrained.
Na Tum Tum Raho, Na Hum Hum Rahein
Iss Qadar Aa Is Jahaan Ke Paar Ho Jayen
May you no longer remain you, nor I stay I.
Come, let’s go beyond this world to such an extent.
Khad Jandi A Tere Utte Akh Ni Hildi Chehre Ton,
Hor Kise Nu Vekhan Kiddan,
My eyes stop on you, they don’t move from your face.
How can I look at anyone else?
Time Nai Milda Tere Ton,
Oh Hath Rakhi, Rakhi Ni Mere Seene Utte
I don’t have time to look at you.
Oh, keep, keep your hand on my chest.
Meri Bukkal Ch Aa Ni Mera Dard Mukke
‘Raj’ Deewane Nu Lokkaan Di Nazaraan Di Ki Parwaah
Come into my embrace, my pain will end.
What does crazy ‘Raj’ care about the gazes of people?
Ni Adiye Paani Da Paani Da, Rang Chadhake Aa
Apaan Mill Jaiye (Mill Jaiye)
Girl, come colored in the color of water.
Let’s meet (let’s meet).
Ni Bhul Jaiye (Bhul Jaiye)
Haye Ik Duje Da Naa
Let’s forget (let’s forget).
Oh, each other’s names.
Ni Adiye Paani Da, Paani Da, Rang Chadhake Aa
Je Apaan Mill Jaiye Bhul Jaiye Ik Dooje Da Naa
Girl, come colored in the color of water.
If we meet, let’s forget each other’s names.
Ni Adiye Paani Da, Paani Da, Rang Chadhake Aa
Rang Chadhake Aa,
Ni Adiye Rang Chadhake Aa,
Girl, come colored in the color of water, the color of water.
Come colored.
Girl, come colored.
