Heer Raanjha (हीर राँझा)

'Friends, you might've heard about Jhung,'

'wherein the river Chenab flows since ages.'

'It's a place wherein ruthless people shattered two hearts',

'in whose memory the province of Punjab still wails.'

'I've brought that pain from the heart of Punjab.'

'I've brought that pain from the heart of Punjab.'

'I've brought some pieces of those loving hearts.'

'The heart knows how the pain has been decked out.'

'The heart knows how it's been turned into a tale.'

'The heart knows how the sorrows have been celebrated.'

'It's only the heart knows,'

'how much of one's blood has been burnt.'

'The fire may not be mine.'

'The fire may not be, but the smoke is definitely mine.'

'It may be the tale of Heer and Ranjha.'

'But the narrative is mine.'

Do you hear it?

You hear it! - I'll die!

So sweet is the tune!

This girl's crazy! - Shut up!

Look, he's come. - Goodness gracious!

Beauties!

Ladies!

Darlings!

Sweethearts!

Sweeties!

Give me the blessings of youth!

Go, rascal! - Give him a slap!

Look, don't play pranks with us!

Are your sisters-in-law dead?

Not one, he's got eight of them. - That explains his attitude!

Crazy! - Of your beauty!

Mad! - Of your splendour!

I'm getting late! Let me go home.

Wow! What gait!

Stay away!

Rowdy!

Give me the pot. Let me quench my thirst.

Take! Quench your thirst or get drowned!

I won't spare you today! - Goodness!

She's gone!

You're no less than her!

He crossed the limit today!

Sisters!

Come here! It's about Ranjha!

How should I tell you?

What did he do?

Do you see this mole? - Yes!

He touched it!

He touched your mole?

Get away, let me ask her!

Go on, ask. Why fight? - Why would I fight?

You got thrashed by your spouse yesterday!

What's it to you? - Yesterday you came bare foot.

You too had similar experiences! Just stop this fight.

She came to tell something interesting.

Let her say it.

Tell us whatever Ranjha did with you.

Touched your mole, or something else? Tell it all.

Many things! - What?

My drape too! - What?

And, even this tender wrist! - The wrist too!

He twisted it!

He pressed it too!

He caused me pain!

What does that rascal want? - He comes there with wrong intentions!

Shameless man!

Teaches me to be shameless too!

Had he done that in private, I would've stayed quiet!

Would've harboured no grudges, nor vilified him.

There are other girls at the well and everyone's jealous of me!

Witches!

They simply keep on bitching behind the back.

You're a witch!

Why do you talk ill? Fear god!

Why do you instigate us?

Just look at your face! Will Ranjha ever harass you?

Ranjha would stay far away from the paths you tread.

Are you the only one who's dear to Ranjha?

People say you're in a relation with your brother-in-law!

***!

What happened? - Let go!

Let me go! - Wretch!

Let me go!

Leave her! What's the matter with you?

Let go!

Let go!

Let go!

May her tongue rot!

The whole village says so!

Praise your husband!

The poor man keeps quiet even after hearing all this!

Don't force me to talk now! You people have spread it all!

You've vent your fury and ire on me!

Wow! Look at the gait!

After all, she's in her prime!

Damn mouth!

All thanks to her tresses!

The crook!

Your brother will straighten you out!

Why did you go to the well? - The thirsty go to the well!

To harass young girls? To tickle them?

So, should I harass old women?

Say that to your brother!

Useless! What will you gain with all this?

You just idle and simply come to eat in the house!

Blame the youth!

Good! But the consequences will be bad!

Sonny, even I was young once!

But, go ahead and ask anyone. I worked hard.

We pick our hoes and you pick your flute!

We go to the field and you go to the fair!

Will you allow me to speak? - What will you say, crazy man?

Wonder how you were born in our house!

Ranjha!

Where are you going now? - Stay in the house!

Are you scared of me? - Why would I get scared of you?

Where shall I find a sister-in-law like you? - Crazy!

To the village. - Tulsipur?

Yes, a friend of mine stays there.

His marriage troupe is going. I've to certainly go with him.

You fool, will you go to Jhang?

Bear in mind! You won't return alive!

We've an old animosity with Jhang!

Mend your ways. - That would be beneficial for you!

My enemies are all here!

Wherever I go, the rest of the world is mine.

Stay here!

Let him go if he wants to!

Who knows, he just might marry Heer and bring her here.

The groom's troupe is here!

"That fatso aunt of yours,"

"we've heard she's crazy!"

"We'll take her away, she's quite lovely!"

"Once my uncle comes, he'd be all over the place."

"If he hears what you just said,"

"He'll make mince meat out of you."

"I'll gladly lock my gaze with you."

"I won't let you go at any cost."

"And, since you've called me to the garden,"

"I'll indeed pluck the buds."

"Pluck the young buds and invite your death."

"You belong to the family of blinds."

"How then, will you be able to lock the gaze?"

"Do whatever you want,"

"but, don't get angry with us."

"We want just a memento of yours."

"Better, give your heart to us,"

"if at all you take my heart,"

"wonder when you'll be back."

"Your gait suggests you'd make me suffer."

"We'll never make you suffer."

"Indeed, we'll never do that."

"We're taking away your friend, sweets."

"We'd take you some day too."

'The feeling of solitude is twofold now, after meeting her.'

'No doubt, the hearts bloomed, yet there seems to be a void.'

"Hide yourself yourself."

"All and sundry."

"The king's daughter,"

"Is on her way."

"Is on her way."

"Quickly, hide yourself."

"All and sundry."

"The king's daughter,"

"Is on her way."

Who's she? - Who?

Her? - Yes!

The daughter of the village headman.

Her name? - The name's Heer!

What a sweet name!

Is there something? - A desire to meet!

You're so naive! - Once!

Not at all. - Just once!

Go wash your face first. - You're quite witty!

He isn't too good looking! - Who's he?

I didn't ask.

Who are you? What should I tell her?

Tell her I'm a broke vagabond.

He's a broke man!

Why is that so? - Don't know.

Should I ask him? - Listen, come here.

Ask him where he's from.

Where are you from?

Assume that I belong to this very place now.

He belongs to nowhere now!

Ask the name as well, silly girl. - Oh, god!

Where am I stuck?

Name? - Ranjha's my name.

Heard it! Ask him what he wants.

What else?

He's head over heels for you. Desires to talk to you.

But, how's that possible?

At night. - At night?

Just forget it. - Should I?

Hold it.

Just ask him what he wants to talk about.

What do you want to say?

What should I say? - She asked me to inquire.

Tell her she's my dream!
