Lyrics

Punjabi (Original)
Ilm Main Bas Karein Na Yaar
Ilm main bas karein na yaar
Ik Alif teray darkaar
Ilm main bas karein na yaar

Bas karein o yaar
Ilm-oun bas karein o yaar
Ik Alif teray darkaar
Ilm-oun bas karein o yaar

Lakh kitaaban padhiyan
Perh perh ke duniyaan laddiyan
Kadi apnay aap nu parrhya naee
Lakh kitaaban padhiyan
Ilm-oun bas karein o yaar
Ik Alif teray darkaar
Ilm-oun bas karein o yaar

Chal Way Bulleya chal o thay
Jithay saaray annay
Na koi saadi zaat pachhane
Na koi sain, sayanay
Ilm-oun bas karein o yaar
Ik Alif teray darkaar

English Translation
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend
You need only the letter “Alif”
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend

Just stop, my friend
Stop seeking knowledge, O friend
You need only the letter “Alif”
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend

You have read countless books
Reading and reading, you’ve fought the world
But you have never read your own self
You have read countless books
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend
You need only the letter “Alif”
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend

Go, O Bulleya, go to the place
Where all are blind
Where no one knows our caste
Where none are learned or wise
Stop seeking more knowledge, O friend
You need only the letter “Alif”
