babbul

Its a beautiful song sung by Punjabi singer Harbhajan Mann...basically about the Indian Punjabi tradition depicting as to how  a girl who had stayed with her parents forever had to leave them after marriage..its a very touching song with lyrics ...
I am translating every single line ..which is very touching.
which says... just like a flowering tree which was in their yard..(Babbul de veede ambi da buta)(ambi nu boore peya)now ready to bloom..
.(vas da rehe mere baabul da veedah theeian di ehi dua)daughters always pray for well being of their parents..

(sakyon bachpan de din payare enha galiyan de vich guzare)friends childhood memories are precious spent in playing on the streets...
(bachpan beetiya ayi jawani aagye mehaka de vanjaare)..now the flower blooms and its taken by somebody else ..
(babbul de veedeh chamba si khidya ek phool tod liya)there was garden full of flowers one flower is taken now..
(vaasda rahe mere baabul da veedah theeiyan di eh hi dua)I pray for well being of my parents and the garden to bloom forever...
(veedeh goonj pehiyan shenaiyan ki sakhiyan doli pavan ayian)the same house has today celebration goin on with friends together to set her for final goodbye.
.(baabul par latha tere sir toh loki ake dean vadhiyaan)..people are congratulating father as his burden of getting his daughter married is finally over..
(rona ni mayen punjh le athroo has has kar de bidaayee )dont cry mom wipe your tears...and happily say good bye..
(vas da rehe mere babbul da veedah theeyian di ehi dua)I pray for well being of my parents...
(mera veer sandahra layaya lambe cher ke paande aya)my bro has come with gifts after traveling  hours..
(mere toh khushi na sambhi jaandi aaj khar aya ambhdi jaya)..I cannot express my happiness that apple of moms eye is here...

(Ambdi de jaye gal lag mileye a doove pehan praa...).apple of moms eye ...give me a hug we are brother and sister..
(Vaasda rahee mere babbul da veedah theeyan di ehi dua.....)..I wish for well being of my parents!!

I have translated the lyrics ....to best of my ability....with tears in my eyes all the time...
