The Story of Heer & Ranjha (lyrics and translations up on my youtube channel)

I’m sure many of you know the gist of the story, but how well do we actually know it?

Growing up, I was surrounded by a lot of different musical influences, but my favourite singer was Kuldeep Manak. I don’t know what it was about him, but I just loved all his work. Although my generation knows of Manak, and they appreciate his work, it seems as if they don’t entirely understand the beauty behind the music. Part of that could be due to meanings lost in translation, and another part of it could be due to the fact that most of his work was acoustic/recorded live, which kids don't listen to very often these days.

This year I’ve started a project where I wanted to break those barriers and get a wider audience introduced to the magic of Dev Tharikewala (Manak Ji’s writer) and Kuldeep Manak himself. I will be making a series of modern remixes that will tell the story of Heer & Ranjha. On YouTube/IG I will have the translations of the lyrics on screen so that everyone may understand what is being said. I’ll try to make each remix a different style and will be uploading them to SoundCloud/YouTube. I believe there are about 20-25 different songs through which the story is told. Hopefully by the end of the year I will have completed this project and future generations will continue to know the full story of Heer & Ranjha told by the legendary Kuldeep Manak. It can never replace the original recordings, but hopefully this project will inspire people to fall in love with the original songs


For those that follow me and have never heard of this story, it’s similar to Romeo & Juliet in a sense. Romeo in this case is named Ranjha, and Juliet is named Heer. 

I’m starting off this year with this track called “Heer Doli Beh Gai Kherian Di”. In this point of the story, Ranjha learns that the love of his life is forced to marry someone else. The song goes through the different emotions and thoughts that Ranjha had at this time.

A big special thanks to @PanjabCirca70s on Instagram for helping me out with this project!!!
