Maachis – Pani Pani Re Song Lyrics

Maachis is a 1996 film written and directed by Gulzar. The title is hinted at the youth who when provoked are as dangerous as matchsticks. The provocation could be the difference meted on them because of a political and judicial system. The plot is set in 1980s when there was Sikh insurgency in Punjab, and its consequences on young and honest people. Jimmy Shergil, Chandrachur Singh, Tabu, and Om Puri are the leads in the film.

Lyrics

Pani pani re khaare paani re
Pani pani re khaare paani re
Nainon mein bhar jaaye
Neendein khaali kar jaaye

Pani pani re khaare paani re
Pani pani re khaare paani re
Nainon mein bhar jaaye
Neendein khaali kar jaaye

Pani pani in pahaadon ke gharaanon se
Utar jaana
Dhuaan dhuaan kuchh vaadiyaan bhi aayengi
Guzar jaana
Ik gaaon re ga mera ghar aayega
Jaan re ghar jaaye
Neendein khaali kar jaaye

Ye rudaali jaisi raatein gum raaton mein
Bita dena
Meri aankhon mein jo bolni ke paakhi ko
Uda dena
Barfon mein lage mausam pighle
Mausam hare kar jaaye
Neendein khaali kar jaaye

Pani pani re khaare paani re
Pani pani re khaare paani re
Nainon mein bhar jaaye
Neendein khaali kar jaaye
