[Download Mp3] – “Watch BTS of Channa”
Artist: Atif Aslam
Song: Channa – Darling – چنّاں
Language: Punjabi
Coke Studio Season 6, Episode 3
Song Info:
Atif Aslam returns to Coke Studio this Season with ‘Channa’ a song that is a declaration of Love thrown into a canvas of mixed instrumentation encapsulating the true state of Contentment. The song was conceptualized by Atif; its melodic inspiration stemmed from a rhythm that finds its base in the beat of the Dhol. This rhythm was transferred into the instrumentation of the song giving the overall pulsing groove adorned with the subtle picks at the African Harp – the Kora which coupled with the Brass Section makes for an almost funky disco feel from the 70’s. A song that Atif feels quite connected with musically, ‘Channa’ which means ‘Darling’, is a song that sees a progression of deep, almost heart tugging waves stringed by the Orchestra in Serbia that finds its calm in the ever present pulse that takes the song to its climactic transition into the world of disco funk – highlighting the sense of satisfaction felt in the state of true love.

Lyrics:
تیرے پیار دی اینی چھاں وے
tere pyaar di aini chaan ve
Your love casts such a deep shade over me
ٹھنڈی لگدی اے مینوں ہر تھاں وے
ṭhanḍi lagdi e mainoon har thaan ve
That each place I go feels blessedly cool to me
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
تیرے پیار دی اینی چھاں وے
tere pyaar di aini chaan ve
Your love casts such a deep shade over me
ٹھنڈی لگدی اے مینوں ہر تھاں وے
ṭhanḍi lagdi e mainoon har thaan ve
That each place I go feels blessedly cool to me
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
تو میرا مان کدی توڑیں نہ وے
tu mera maan kadi toṛeen na ve
Please don’t ever break my faith in you
دیئں رکھیں بس توں قدماں چ تھاں وے
daeen rakkheen bas toon qadmaan ch thaan ve
Let me just always have a place at your feet
سوہنیا توں ہن آویں پانویں نہ وے
sohniya toon hun aawen paanwen nah ve
Darling, whether you come now or you do not come
چس پے گیا ای اڈیکاں دا وے
chas pai gaya ee uḍeekaan da we
I’ve become addicted to waiting for you
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
توں دسیں تے رنگلا جہاں وے
toon disen te rangla jahaan we
When you come into sight, my world becomes bright and full of colour
سوہنی ہو جاواں جد تیرے کول بانہہ تے
sohni ho jaawaan jad tere kol baanh te
I become beautiful when I sit beside you
لوں لوں وچ تیری دید رواں وے
loon loon wich teri deed rawaan we
Your vision infuses every pore of my being
نئیں رہ سکدی تیرے بنا وے
naeen rah sakdi tere bina we
I just cannot exist without you
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
وے چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
ve channaan likh ke main tera na
O darling, I write your name on my arm
وے چنّاں
ve channaan
O darling…
چنّاں لکھ کے میں تیرا نا
channaan likh ke main tera na
Darling, I write your name on my arm
چمدی رینی آں اپنی بانہہ
chumdi raini aan apni baanh
And kiss it longingly
وے چنّاں توں جانویں نہ اوہلے وے
we channaan toon jaanween nah ohle we
Darling, don’t disappear from my view
