Paar chana de disse kulli yaar di Ghariya ghariya aa ve ghariya (x2)
Right there across the chenab river lies My beloved's hut Come on, clay-pot, let’s keep going
Raat haneri nadi thathaan maardi Ariye ariye haan ni ariye
The night is deathly dark The river waves surge high around us Oh listen, girl, don’t be stubborn
Paar chana de disse kulli yaar di Ghadeya ghadeya aa ve ghadeya Raat haneri nadi thathaan maardi Ariye ariye haan ni ariye
Kachi meri mitti kacha mera naam ni Haan main na-kaam ni Ho main naakaam ni, haan main na-kaam ni
Kachi meri mitti kacha mera naam ni Haan main na-kaam ni Kacchiyaan da hunda kacha anjaam ni Eh gal ‘aam ni
I am a pot made of unbaked clay Bound to melt away in the river Being unsound and unsteady I cannot but fail in carrying you across The unsound can only reach an unsound end This is a truth known to all
Kacheyaan te rakhiye na umeed paar di Ariye ariye haan ni ariye
Raat haneri nadi thaathaan maardi Ariye ariye haan ni ariye
Don't rely on the unsound To help you reach the shore Oh listen, girl, don’t be stubborn
Paar chanaa de disse kulli yaar di Ghadeya ghadeya aa ve ghadeya Raat haneri nadi thaathaan maardi Ariye ariye haan ni ariye
Ho oh o.. Ho..
Vekh chhallan paindiyan nah chhaddeen dil ve (x2) Ajj mahiwaal noon main jaana mil ve (x2)
Look, the waves are splashing higher and higher
But don’t lose heart I must go to meet mahiwal this night at any cost
Vekh chhallaan paindiyan na chadden dil ve Haan laike khil ve Ajj mahiwaal nou main jana mil ve Haan aiho dil ve
Look, the waves are splashing higher and higher but don’t lose heart so help transport me there I must go to meet mahiwal this night at any cost yes, my heart insists on going
Yaar noon milegi ajj laash yaar di (x3) Ghadeya ghariya aa ve ghariya Paar channah de disse kulli yaar di Ghadeya ghadeya aa ve ghadeya Paar channa de dise khull yaar de Ghadeya ghadeya aa ve ghadeya
Tonight, a lover will be greeted With the corpse of his beloved Come on, clay-pot, let’s keep going
Raat haneri nadi thaathaan maardi Adiye adiye aa ni adiye
Paar chaana de disse khulli haan kulli Ve kulli yaar di Ghadeya ghadeya aa ve ghadeya Raat haneri nadi thaathaan maardi Adiye adiye aa ni adiye
Phad pallara Phad pallara pakke murshad da Jehda tainu paar lagaave Jehda tainu paar lagaave
Hold firmly to Hold firmly to the sound guide Who will take you safely to the shore
Ghariya (x15) Tainu paar lagaave (x7) Ghariya (x7)
O clay pot, take you safely to the shore O clay-pot
