I give out sweets in joyous celebration

کھڑ کھڑ ہاسی دور اداسی

Joy-filled laughter chases away all woes
چانن پیوے جند پیاسی
chaanan peewe jind piyaasi
Bright moonlight illuminates my soul
کھڑ کھڑ ہاسی دور اداسی
khiṛ khiṛ haasi door udaasi
Joy-filled laughter chases away all woes
چانن پیوے جند پیاسی
chaanan peewe jind piyaasi
Bright moonlight illuminates my soul

Every pore of my being is filled with bliss

ہلہلارے نیناں ٹھارے
hulhulaare nainaan ṭhaare
The beauty of his sight brings blessed coolness to my eyes
ہستی مستی رنگ اتارے
hasti masti rang utaare
The colour of ecstasy imbues my being
ہلہلارے نیناں ٹھارے
hulhulaare nainaan ṭhaare
The beauty of his sight brings blessed coolness to my eyes

میل پریتم کملی کیتم
mel pareetam kamli keetam
Seeing my beloved has made me crazy with happiness
چھم چھم ناچوں چڑھ چوبارے
chham chham naachoon chaṛh chaubaare
I get up on the rooftop to dance in rapture
جلفاں چھنڈاں رے
julfaan chhanḍaan re
I sway my head in ecstasy and toss my hair
اجی جلفاں چھنڈاں رے
aji julfaan chhanḍaan re
I sway my head in ecstasy and toss my hair
میں جلفاں چھنڈاں رے
main julfaan chhanḍaan re
I sway my head in ecstasy and toss my hair

بول پیا دے دلڑی ٹھگّن
bol piya de dilṛi ṭhaggan
My sweetheart’s words steal my heart away
اندھیارے میں دیوے جگّن
andhyaare men deewe jaggan
And light lamps to brighten the darkness

My sweetheart’s words steal my heart away
اندھیارے میں دیوے جگّن

And light lamps to brighten the darkness
گوشے بیٹھ کلولاں ہوئیاں
goshe baiṭh kalolaan hoiyaan
The moments I have caught alone with him fill me with rapture
انگ انگ مٹھیاں لہراں وگّن
ang ang miṭhiyaan lahraan waggan
Sweet thrills of pleasure run through my being
چکھیاں کھنڈاں رے

I take a delightful taste of sweetness
اجی چکھیاں کھنڈاں رے

وصل وچھوڑے دے گھر ٹکّے
wasl wichhoṛe de ghar ṭukke
To the home of lonely separation, the wedding procession of union comes
اک سکھ ملیا سو دکھ مکے
ik sukh milya sau dukh mukke
With this one joy, a hundred sorrows have been erased
اک سکھ ملیا سو دکھ مکّے
ik sukh milya sau dukh mukke
With this one joy, a hundred sorrows have been erased
روح نے رنگ رنگولی کھیڈی
rooh ne rang rangoli kheḍi
My soul joyfully played rang and sported with colour
خوشیاں دے رگ بھر بھر چکّے
khushiyaan de rugg bhar bhar chukke
I gather up fistfuls of happiness
بنیاں پنڈاں رے
baniyaan panḍaan re
To make great bundles of joys
اجی بنیاں پنڈاں رے
aji baniyaan panḍaan re
To make great bundles of joys
میں بنیاں پنڈاں رے

ہو نین دکھے بن دید کے
ho nain dukkhe bin deed ke
My eyes ache to see you
رہی لباں پر جان
rahi labaan par jaan
My breath is about to leave my body
دیوو عشق مبارکاں
dewo ‘ishq mubaarkaan
Congratulate me on gaining love’s desire
موہے ساجن ملیا آن
mohe saajan milya aan
My sweetheart has come to me
