Lyrics Translation in Punjabi/English

Mahi ve tere bajoN
dil deya meharma ve
sada jeuuna kere chaj da ay
meri looN looN vich meri nas nas wich
teri yaad da tumpbaa vaj ay

ਮਾਹੀ ਵੇ ਤੇਰੇ ਬਾਜੋ
ਦਿਲ ਦਿਆ ਮੇਹਰਮਾ ਵੇ
ਸਾਡਾ ਜੇਉਣਾ ਕੇਹਰੇ ਚੱਜ ਦਾ ਏ
ਮੇਰੀ ਲੂੰ ਲੂੰ ਵਿਚ ਮੇਰੀ ਨਸ ਨਸ ਵਿਚ
ਤੇਰੀ ਯਾਦ ਦਾ ਤੁਮਬਾ ਵੱਜ ਏ

Without you
Without you, my heart's desire
There's no point in living without you
Every nerve and vein sings your name

Akhiyan udeek diyan dil vajaa mar da
Akhiyan udeek diyan dil vajaa mar da 

ਅਖੀਆ ਉਡੀਕਦੀਆ ਦਿਲ ਵਾਜਾ ਮਾਰਦਾ
ਅਖੀਆ ਉਡੀਕਦੀਆ ਦਿਲ ਵਾਜਾ ਮਾਰਦਾ

My eyes wait for you to come
My heart yearns

aja pardesiya vaasta ii pyaar da
aaja tenu akhiyan udeek diyan
sajnaa tenu akhiyan udeek diyan
dholnaa tenu akhiyan udeek diyan



ਆਜਾ ਪਰਦੇਸੀਆ ਵਾਸਤਾ ਈ ਪਿਆਰ ਦਾ 
ਆਜਾ ਤੈਨੂ ਅਖੀਆ ਉਡੀਕਦੀਆ 
ਸਜਨਾ ਤੈਨੂ ਅਖੀਆ ਉਡੀਕਦੀਆ 
ਢੋਲਨਾ ਤੈਨੂ ਅਖੀਆ ਉਡੀਕਦੀਆ 

My eyes wait for you to come
My heart yearns
And calls to you
Come back, I swear on our love

Even the birds have flown away from the house
