Lyrics of the Songs for Lohri

Song For Lohri

Sunder Mundriye Ho...

Sunder mundriye ho!
Tera kaun vicaharaa ho!
Dullah bhatti walla ho!
Dullhe di dhee vyayae ho!
Ser shakkar payee ho!
Kudi da laal pathaka ho!
Kudi da saalu paatta ho!
Salu kaun samete!
Chache choori kutti! zamidara lutti!
Zamindaar sudhaye!
bade bhole aaye!
Ek bhola reh gaya!
Sipahee far ke lai gaya!
Sipahee ne mari eet!
Sanoo de de lohri te teri jeeve jodi!
Bhanvey ro te bhanvey pit..!


Hulle Nee Maiyee Hulle....

Hulle nee maiyee hulle do beri patte jhulle
Do jhul payeaan kahjurran
Khajurran suttya meva
Es munde de ghar mangeva
Es munde di voti nikdi
Oh! khandi choori, kutdi
Kut! Kut! Bharaya thaal woti bave nananaa nal

Ninaan te wadi parjaee
So kudma de ghar aayee!
mein lohri lain aayee!
