Lyrics of the song Challa with English translation

Challa means  ring , and in poetry,  Challa means a mad lover , someone one who is in deeply love and has forgotten everything


Lyrics -

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Yaaron main ghar keda Lokan toh puchda phire
Friends I keep asking people  where is my home
Challa hansda phire
He roams around laughing smiling

Challa ronda phire
He roams around crying

Challa gali gali rulda phire
He keeps wandering roaming on different streets or lanes
Challe tu sab da
You are here for every one

Challe tera koi nai
But here no one is yours

Challa gali gali rulda phire
He keeps wandering roaming on different streets or lanes

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Yaaron main ghar keda Lokan toh puchda phire
Friends I keep asking people  where my home is

Challa ki labda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Rang satrangi de
Seven colors

Bulbulan di boli
Like twittering of the nightingales

Dhup de pairi chale Chhawaan di lai doli
Even though I carry shadow my feet burns in Sun

Rang satrangi de
Seven colors

Bulbulan di boli
Like twittering of the nightingales

Dhup de pairi chale Chhawaan di lai doli
Even though I carry shadow my feet burns in Sun

Hun kaale kaale badalan vich chand labda
Now in black clouds he sees moon

Goongiyan hawaan diyaan awajaa sun da
And listens to the voice of mute winds

Yaaro aase paase wasda hai yaar mera
Friends my lover lives somewhere here close by

Dikhda ni ohdi khusbuaan sungdaan
I cannot see her, but I smell her fragrance

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Challa ki labh da phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Yaaron main ghar keda Lokan toh puchda phire
Friends I keep asking people  where my home is

Challa ki labh da phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Na visaal hoya kadi Na judai hoyi
Neither union nor separation happened

ishq de qaidi ti na rihai hoyi
prisoners of love never get freedom

lokon supne vich milne da vaada usda
she promised me to meet me in dreams

saari saari raat na aankh lagdi
but I could not sleep whole night

mere saa vi thode thode katti honed
my breath has become heavy hard

meri nabaz vi thodi katti vajdi
my pulse has slowed bit

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Yaaron main ghar keda Lokan toh puchda phire
Friends I keep asking people  where my home is 

Challa hansda phire
He roams around laughing smiling

Challa ronda phire
He roams around crying

Challa gali gali rulda phire
He keeps wandering roaming on different streets or lanes

Challe tu sab da
You are here for every one

Challe tera koi nai
But here no one is yours

Challa gali gali rulda phire
He keeps wandering roaming on different streets or lanes

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Challa ki labhda phire
What am I looking for like a mad lover

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

In the film's "Jab Tak Hai Jaan" song "Challa ki labh da phire" there is a choir of children singing some lines.
at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVjkxRLSVOg

These lines are between the time points

3:02 and 3:19
resp. -2:18 and -2:01

I heard (but I 'm not a Punjabi native speaker)

ja gari dada
san dari dada

garesa minali
daresa minali

nesadi na gada
nesali na gada

di nada ne gadda

da nari dada

gaba da nissa

ni dam da naba da

na dada na re

Can you please correct what I heard and - maybe tell me what these lines mean in English Translation

Thank you for your helpfulness
with kind regards
