Punjabi Songs To Lift Your Spirits:―
1. Pani Deya Bulbuleya by Chamkila X Josh Sidhu
Pani Deya Bullbuleyea
Ki Buniyaadan Teriyan.
The song Pani Deya Bulbuleya by Amar Singh Chamkila is a perfect reminder of the fleeting nature of human existence. The lyrics explore the idea that we are all born with nothing and will leave this world with nothing, and that we should not let material possessions consume us or make us unhappy.
It has been very close to my heart since the release of its remix version by Josh Sidhu.
My favorite words are,
Sunne Reh Gye Mehal Munaare
Tu Reejha De Nal Usaare
Has had a profound impact on me, providing perspective and gratitude during tough times.
2. WADDE JIGRE by Himmat Sandhu
Wadde Jigre Naal Badle Halaat Jande Aa
Elevate your mood with this powerful Punjabi song from Himmat Sandhu. It emphasizes that we need a bigger heart and immense courage to change our circumstances.
The song encourages us to rise above the pain and strive to earn respect. It’s a reminder that true respect has to be earned and can’t be purchased or sold.
In the words of Gill Raunta, the lyricist,
Uthna Painda Ae Uchche Zakhma Di Maar To
Ijjat Kamauni Paindi Mile Na Bazaar Cho

Hass Ke Katla
Jagg Te Jind Parauni Aa
This Punjabi song by Karamjit Anmol reminds us to cherish every moment and live life to the fullest, as we are not here forever. The lyrics encourage us to laugh and enjoy ourselves, instead of dwelling on sadness.
In the words of Manaa Mandd,
Oh Lang Te Jani
Ro Ke Kyun Langoni Aa
The song echoes the melody of life, a symphony of ebbs and flows. It reassures us to hold on, to not lose hope as the natural law of the universe dictates that the fallen shall rise and the triumphant shall fall.

This Punjabi song by Sidhu Moose Wala and Shooter Kahlon inspires us to work towards turning our dreams into reality. It’s a call to action to actively work towards making our aspirations a reality, no matter how big or small they may be.
In addition, it encourages us to keep our focus entirely on our actions while remaining detached from the result. In the words of Sidhu and Sikander,
Ho Ajj Chadd Ohda Kujh Kal Vi Ni Banda
Mehnat To Bina Jidi Nigah Hundi Phal Te

Dance to the upbeat rhythms of this Punjabi song that will lift your mood from the gloomy state. The hard-hitting beats and lively rhythm will refresh your senses and leave you feeling energized and ready to take on the world.

Badle Je Kal Vi Taan Koyi Gall Ni
It’s a go-to song for anyone looking for a quick pick-me-up and a boost of positivity to brighten their day.
6. Na Jatta Na by Laddi Chahal
Na Jatta Na, Na Jatta Na
Khudkushiyan Da Appa Laina Vi Ni Naa
This song from Laddi Chahal reminds us that life is a precious gift from the almighty and that we must strive to make the most of it. The lyrics encourage those facing suicidal thoughts to hold on, to remember that each breath is a chance to make a difference, and to keep pushing forward.
In the words of Laddi Chahal,
Eh Zindagi Udhari
Os Rabb Ton Le Aaye
Ohnu Jitt Ke Modange
Assi Haaran Ni Aaye
If these words don’t give you chills, I’m not sure what will. Another line in the song states,
Kalla Kalla Jee Ke Jaana
Jo Likha Ke Aaye Saan
It means I will “Not Leave” without living each and every breath I was blessed with. This song is so emotionally charged that it has brought tears to my eyes as I write. It has freshened up the painful days when I didn’t want to wake up.
Another line states,
Meri Ajj Din Hustle De
Chalde Aa Koyi
Na Main Jitt Ke Jaunga
Pind Bebe Kare Wait Meri
It means, “I’ll hustle through these days, And return to my village with victory, Where my mother is waiting for me”

9. Takhte by Himmat Sandhu
Ho Je Tu Chadea Ni Teer,
Kiven Laguga Thikane,
Kine Palte Ne Takhte,
Kai Badle Gharane,
This one from Himmat Sandhu is my personal favorite. his two-and-a-half-minute song packs an incredible amount of inspiration that’s hard to find in a full-length movie.
So there’s going to be a lot of blabbering from my side for this one. It’s a soul-stirring anthem that will leave you feeling inspired to chase your dreams. The quoted words above mean, “If you aren’t going to take the shot, how will it hit the target?”
It’s a call to embrace your aspirations without being afraid of the risks involved.
There is another line that means, “Dream with open eyes, for it’s not the ones in slumber who are crowned.”
In the words of Hardeep Grewal and Deepa Bhullarai,
Dekh Khuliyan Ankhan De Nal Supne,
Aithe Sutea De Sirra Te Ni Taj Sajde,
It doesn’t end here. Every line of this song carries the power to uplift and motivate you.
Another line goes like this,
Jidi Saagaran Ton Pyas Nahiyon Bhujdi,
Ohne Kithe Char Ghunto Nal Rajna,
It means, “One whose thirst cannot be quenched by an ocean, how can they be satiated by just 4 sips?”
