Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Karo na yakeen zyada sach mawan kahndiyan
Naam hove saare veera veera kahnde aa
Banjar zameen kole nadiyan ni vehndiyan
Oh yaari ch gaddariyan ta karde aan dalle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Lokan de sira te dass kaahdi balle balle
Thalle thalle, ohni chheti thalle
Ho dharti to uth jadon lagdi udaari aa
Aaj kal fame pichhe tutt jaandi yaari aa x (2)
Change hundi duniya ae note hare vekh ke
Dil kaale ho jande aa aini matt maari aa
Tutt jande saare kolon khaali hunde palle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Lokan de sira te dass kaahdi balle balle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Thalle thalle, ohni chheti thalle
Sher kehnde aap nu kayi hunde aa snake oye
Kapde taan sohne sige bande vi aa fake oye x (2)
Sadna taan kam hunda lakdi da chulhe ch
Tu kaahtob sad'da aa vekh hune vekh oye
Aise lokan nalo yaara appa changey kalle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Lokan de sira te dass kaahdi balle balle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Thalle thalle, ohni chheti thalle
Paudi utte chadhde nu jeena hunda chareya
Thalle aunde milne aa rab jadon taareya x (2)
Ghurale da karan rakhe ungla te gin ke
Jihne laat khichi mainu chete oho saareya
Aujla saneha bas aina ki hi galle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Lokan de sira te dass kaahdi balle balle
Jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle
Thalle thalle, ohni chheti thalle
The lyrics to Deep Jandu's song "Up & Down" depicts the story of how the singer rose to fame and success through hard work and determination, but along the way, faced a lot of backstabbing and fake friends. The opening lines paint a picture of how the singer comes from humble beginnings, having seen the ups and downs of living in a mansion, where rivers flow alongside barren lands. The chorus describes how fame has become a double-edged sword, where the singer's success and notoriety comes at the cost of losing true friends and relationships. The lines, "change hundi duniya ae note hare vekh ke dil kaale ho jande aa aini matt maari aa" highlight the pervasive materialism in the music industry, where success is measured by the amount of wealth and material possessions owned.
The second verse addresses toxic relationships, where the singer is cautious of those who quickly switch allegiances, "yaari ch gaddariyan ta karde aan dalle jinni chheti utte, ohni chheti thalle." The line "sher kehnde aap nu kayi hunde aa snake oye" speaks to the theme of betrayal and fake friends. The bridge of the song is a rather empowering one, that encourages the singer to rise above the negativity, and not let haters bring him down. The lines, "ghurale da karan rakhe ungla te gin ke jihne laat khichi mainu chete oho saareya" suggests that the singer is deliberate in keeping his haters at bay and that he remembers vividly those who have wronged him.
Overall, the lyrics to "Up & Down" speaks to the challenges that come with success, the toxicity of the music industry, and the importance of staying true to oneself and not letting the negativity bring one down.
