A while back, folks spoke of an initiative to help non-punjabi speaking bhangra folk with song translations. So I thought I'd try to get the ball rolling. Hopefully more ppl just drop in stuff like this!
I've always found it super helpful to get songs/boliyaan translated like it is below, so that folks can learn specific words and as you listen to more and more songs, you'll be able to learn them faster. It might also help to read the lyrics and listen to the song at the same time to learn how words are pronounced.
Enjoy!
