Je Na Mudeya Tu Paily Teri Laini Ethe Napp
Pind Lohatbaddi Te Akha Rakhi Baithe Sapp
Adhi Ta Zameen Layi Aa Roada Ne Harapp
Adhi Ta Zameen Layi Aa Roada Ne Harapp
Hunda Firda Punjab Naal Dhokha
Oh Mudeya Tu Jatta Pind Nu
Waaja Marda Motor Wala Kotha
Oh Mudeya Tu Jatta Pind Noon
Jatta Pind Noon
Waaja Marda Motor Wala Kotha
Oh Mudeya Tu Jatta Pind Noon
Jatta Pind Noon

Motor Wala Kotha Song Description
This page provides the lyrics and information for the song "Motor Wala Kotha". The song is performed and written by 'Gurjant Lohatbaddi', with music by 'Qaistrax' and released by the label 'White Hill Tunes'. The lyrics tell a story about a person who leaves his village to chase money, dreaming of dollars and pounds to build a new life in a new world.
The singer asks how many people have been lost on this journey, noting that this person never remembered his old home, his mind is now on the "Motor Wala Kotha", a phrase that repeats like the sound of an engine, reminding him he has turned away from his village, 'Pind'. He has forgotten his simple bicycle, 'Sawraj', while being amazed by airplanes, and has walked a long road only to face deceit, again the call of the "Motor Wala Kotha" pulls him from his roots.
The lyrics speak to those left behind, who wait for him at the crossroads every day, for generations, but he just passes by, leaving dust on the road. There is a warning too, saying if you do not return, your name will be erased in 'Lohatbaddi', and half the land is troubled for roads, suggesting a loss of heritage for modern development, and it feels like a betrayal to Punjab, with the powerful, repeating hook of the "Motor Wala Kotha" emphasizing this constant pull away from home.
