about

Clean lilting guitar figures and playful percussion are the setting for this well known Punjabi folk song. 'I twist a cob of millet on my palm- that’s how I get my moody beloved to come back around.'

lyrics

**written as phonetically as possible**

Baajre da sitta vay assa talli tay maroreya
Ruthra janda mahiya vay assa galli vicho moreya

Kaalay kaalay baddal aayeh chooki pyaar hanehri
Ajj naa satto russi dhola sau eh teinu meri
Chhama chham meeh peya vassay
Javaani khir khir hassay
Ais rut tay sona, gharo kissay na vichoreya

Mur mur teriya bahva phardi, minta karra mei lakha
Jay pichho see akh puvaani kyo laiya san akha
Vay laggi tor vay dhola, mera dil moar day dhola
Ghari ghari day rossay, sadda lahoo vay nachoreya

Raah jaanday seh chher geya jad oh din teinu bhula
Meri roop javaani uttay dil tera see dulla
Jado say nain milaunda, baray seh tarlay paunda
Tor geya seh vanga, naalay hath machkoreya

Bin teray meri sooni duniya, jeeyu bhora bin kalliya
Raah uttay mei nain vichakay khari rava vich galliya
Vay tu nah aavay dhola, bara tarpaavay dhola
Nit deh vichoray mahiya dil sadda toreya
