@lisa0087 challa is punjabi word for ring ,, how ever here probably it represents the circle of life ... and song illustrates issues in life by using small examples taken from daily life ....translation may not reveal its deeper meaning ...since i too cant decipher it .. enjoy the music
The way music is used to impact the words used in this song are very good. The few instruments are more than enough to lay out the essence of those words.
he has amazing feel in his vioce. which make this song so much speical. the way he is progressing. songs like this and Ik kudi. Definitly he would have a huge fan club. love it
And sikh brothers why are you so presistent to answers aome ignorant's questions.We don need to prove our worth,just invite them to punjab show them the difference betwen punjab and the whole India.
Anyway we dont need to prove that how much do we love India BUT WE STILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE PROUD OF OUR HERITAGE,COME OUTSIDE OUT OF YOUR IGNORANT SHELLS.GIMME YOUR NUMBER IF YOU GOT BALLS THEN SEE

YOU KNOW NOTHING ABT THE SIKHS HISTORY,SO KEEP YOUR FUKIN MOUTH SHUT & DON'T TRY TO GIVE Rabbi's song the cummunal color.And If you say something agin I give u my adress and phone number I will oPEN YOUR EYES ,iF YOU STILL DON'T WANNA KNOW COZ OF UR IGNORANCE THEN I WILL BEAT UR LILL ASS ALL THE WAY FROM MUMBAI TO SURREY BC.
The common meaning of word Chhalla in Punjabi is a ring shaped object. Word is also used for the ring to be worn on fingers. The word was often used for the formal rings exchanged when young people got engaged. Sometimes (very rarely, though) it is used as a word of endearment for an eligible young man who is good prospect for a ring. People would say "He is a chhalla". Also in the same sense, it is sometimes used as a "tongue in cheek" word for a young man who does seem to have good prospect.
It is in the same sense as the phrase "Sundriai ne Mundriai" in lohri rhymes. There the word "Mundri" is a beautiful young girl who is now of marriageable age. Here Rabbi has used this word in this sense, and he seemed to have expanded the scope its meaning to include the circumstances of a young man as well as the young man himself who feels deeply rooted in the place, on one hand and wondering about his situation on the other. Below is the translation for those who do not understand Punjabi.
Translation of the song Chhalla, it is not up to me Chhalla, it is not up to me Chhalla, it is not up to me Chhalla, it is not up to me Chhalla, it is under the control of mom I shall go only when / if she tells me to leave Listen, Chhallia Listen, O Chhallia Don't know who has put the curse on it /him Chhalla, Water coming from the "bumbi" (small bore tube-well) **1 . (Bumbi, actually is expression for small diesel motor, but the word also for the tube-well it runs)
Chhalla, water from "bumbi" Where have gone my friends? I have no news Listen O Chahllia On your berry tree, this one has grown (as) a thorn Chhalla,(there is) a long braid (girl) Chhalla, there a long braid Chhalla, there a long braid I kissed it in my dream As the desire had gone blind So, I listened only to my heart (Now) listen O Chhallia Now punish me as you like
Chhalla,(has grown) a lone banyan (a very large tree) Chhalla, a lone banyan Chhalla, a lone banyan But it is holding on to this support. Bellow is earth, Above is Allah (God) Listen O Chhallia How deep are its roots It (he) does not know himself. (From here on Rabbi repeats some of the verses as if he is pleading) Chhalla, it is not up to me Chhalla - it is under the control of my "mom" Chhalla - it is in under the control of my elder sister-in-law (next to matriarch mother, the eldest
(next to matriarch mother, the sister- in-law has a lot of say in the family affairs especially of younger members of the family ) Chhalla, (like) unripe mangoes **3 Give me some wise advice. Commit to some use whatever is left Of yours and my time Listen, O Chhallia Chhalla, (has grown) a lone banyan tree But it is holding on to this support. Bellow is earth, Above is Allah (God) Listen O Chhallia Listen O Chhallia Listen O Chhallia
man i have nvr ever heard anybody singing like that he is true star and really a gift of god to the punjabi community.how easily and beautifuly he sung all these songs is just amazing. keep doing the good work sir rab rakha
In fact we all Punjabis should encourage intellectual singers to come forward and entertain us with substance. Presently we are flooded with Punjabi music purely representing villages. Not all Sikh live in villages but they are living in other part of the world.

A greatest attempt so far which is super superior than gurdas's .
PPl you need some equations ,need to be solved
If you enjoy the song in a simple words .I hope you will be able to understand the meaning more good ,
So be more liberal and relax and then repeat the song and I PERSONALLY PRAY BABA JI to promote your mental health.
Thanks.
