Earlier, Limagne posted this song called "Lare ka ghamona" with subtitles in Dari. Lately, this song has been playing in my head a lot (I'm in the middle of writing a new lesson for Malayalam where I talk about how to say you're in the middle of doing something :P and for some reason, this song is in my head even now :lol:). Unfortunately, the YouTube link Limagne posted is dead now, so I think I'll repost it. :P :lol:

I'm glad you like it, heheh! :D

So, I think I'll just repost one of the videos that I posted on this thread but has since been taken down (urrgh, these videos keep getting taken down!! :( )...but this time, I'll also (finally!) post a new song. :P

So this is "Qarara Rasha" by Rabia Tabassum, yet again. I hope this one doesn't get taken down, but who knows? :lol:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyZSCwDFoZY

Aaand finally, a new song, heh! :) It's a song by Naghma called "Mala Chal na Razi." It's the only one by Naghma I can seem to find the lyrics for:

Yay! :lol: So here are a few more Pashto songs I managed to find the lyrics for. One is "Khaista Stargey Lari" by Azra Naaz, and the other is an old song by Khyal Muhammad called "Mong Yu Da Khyber Zalmi" from the movie Dara Khyber, which I think is from 1971.

Here's "Khaista Stargey Lari":

And "Mong Yu Da Khyber Zalmi":

I found the lyrics to "Za Pukhtoon Yam" by Naseer and Shahab on another video of that song, but we already have the official video here, and it's definitely better than the other one. :lol: So I just decided to post the lyrics here:

Za khog khais laram
shama za da aman yam
zalmay da khyber yam
Za pukhtoon yam

Za dayr yam khushnaseeb
ameer yam ka ghareeb
za ay dagha gham nakom
Za pakhtoon yam

Za da haroon bacha
da takkar pa saaz
za da menay laso kay
star shavay yam
za shayr da ghani yam
Za pukhtoon yam.

Ka pa Kanro mei ulay
topak pa sar aygday
za ba tala gul darkam
za pukhtoon yam

Topay pa sir
Ghairat na zaar
Za tang takor
Za meenay saaz
za gran pa Tolo yam
Za pukhtoon yam
Za shayr da ghani yam
za pukhtoon yam

And I found two songs by Sardar Ali Takkar along with the lyrics (actually the second one is apparently sung by him and Ghani Khan). One is "Aey da maentob koso aey da lewantob hawa":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bNRmJ3uFag
Lyrics: http://www.pashtohits.com/play/sardar-a ... gs-542.php

The other is "Zama ka aore da guloono pa sel ma oza che
Bagh ke besara baoragana wi sa banigee gule":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMDHyqj6TiU
Lyrics: http://www.pashtohits.com/play/sardar-a ... gs-544.php

I'm glad you appreciated those songs. :D

I found the lyrics to the version of "Bibi Sheerinay" sung by Khyal Muhammad and posted earlier (with additional verses that he apparently sang in another version :lol:), Romanized as follows (I have refrained from repeating the chorus lol):

bibi sherene, ziarhe guley
ra-bande waa-chava sur shaal jorha lasoona
bibi sherene ..

zama sherena janaan rapreg-da
beltuna swaal da aajezay nu derta kawama
bibi sherene

preda che kherh sailaab me yewsi
soke che da shago pull tarhi
sailab be wrhena
bibi sherene

ma da qyamat tama larela
ta rana waa-ghestal pa de dunya lasoona
bibi sherene


And speaking of Khyal Muhammad:

This is a song by Dil Raj called "Nan Ma Drooma Janana." The second half of the song sounds like (if I'm not mistaken) it's an adaptation of the traditional folk(?) song "Tora da jalkai":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BZsLaKNiHk
Lyrics: http://pashtolyrics.com/2013/01/nan-ma- ... s-dil-raj/

And this is another song called "Jadugari Da." I think it's by Fiza Fayyaz:

Lyrics (ignore misleading title lol): http://pashtolyrics.com/2012/03/khanda- ... za-fayyaz/

Reason: putting a space between the lyrics to the first song and the intro to the second :P

I found this song along with this piece of background information in the comments to the video:
This was on the Afghan TV (RTA) channel in the 1980s. His name is Hakim Noor Akakhel and he is from Paktia (Afghanistan). In the video there are other Afghan Pashtoon singers too. The name of the show was "The Hugre Majlis."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUWiziE_isw
Lyrics (also from the comments, in Pashto script):
مینه لوی دریاب دی پو(پې) ګډیږمه
زه دې دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه
مینې لوی دریاب ته ګډیدلی شي
څوک چې تکلیپونه کوبلولی (قبلولی) شي
څومره چې غوټې پسې وئيَلی(وهلی)شي
یار په دریابونو کې موندلی شي

یار مې لامبوزن دی پو نازیږمه
زه یې د دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه
مینې لوی دریاب لوړې څپې راځي
ځکه د مین په زړه ګیلې راځي
ورو ورو په ګودر باندې میلې راځي
مخ دې لکه لمر داسې شغلې راځي
بل مخ ته کتی نشم شرمیږمه
ستا د دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه

مینه لوی دریاب څوک چې مَیئَن شي
خانده چې مَیئَن په زړه غمجن شي
څوک چې پو(په) طلب کې د دیدن شي
ورو ورو بو(به) پخپله لامبوزن شي
تل بو لامبوزن سره خوریږمه(ښوریږمه)
ستا د دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه


مینې لوی دریاب راته بئیږی(بهیږي)
زړونه چې مَئیَن شي نه صبریږي
سترګې مې د یار په لور غوړیږي
یار دمخ ډیوه را ته بلیږي
ځکه پو جامو کې نه ځائیږمه
زه دې دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه

ستا د دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه
مینه لوی دریاب په کې سودا کِمَه(کړمه)
زه اکاخیل زړه مینه په تا کمه
شپه په پوریادو سره (فریادو) سبا کمه
ګوندې صنم تا په کې پیدا کمه
ته چې پو لاس راشې خوشالیږمه
زه دې دیدن تږی نه مړیږمه
سندرغاړی: حکیم نور أکاخیل

And here's another song from Pakistan, apparently from a Pashto movie called Jung, sung by Gul Panra:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUFOb1XnTpc
Lyrics (in Roman script this time as usual :P): http://pashtolyrics.com/2014/10/garzam- ... gul-panra/

This is a lyric video of Khyal Muhammad's version of the song "Sta de Stargo Bala Wakhlam," another version of which Meera posted on the first page of this thread, with a translation of the lyrics into English :)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tfi3ktGxwPI
And this is another video of Sardar Ali Takkar singing "Yawa Wrozay Yaw Sahra Ke" (without the introduction included in the previous video) and performing live:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vcIRS1JlUE
I thought I might as well post this song here because it was in the FSC once and posted in the songs thread last year but somehow never made it to this thread!!! :silly: It also has subtitles, both in Romanized Pashto and in English:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUX04lUspB0
And this is "Nakreeze Attan" by Jawid Sharif, which I just happened to find on YouTube (along with the lyrics online):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I20PMCnRCYA
Lyrics (up to 3:36): http://pashtolyrics.com/2013/12/nakreze ... ad-sharif/

These are two songs from during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan by a Pashtun singer from Kunar named Bakht Zamina. The Wikipedia article on her claims (with no sources to cite, of course) that some of her songs backed the Communist regime controlling Afghanistan at the time and that she was murdered by the Islamic Unity of Afghanistan Mujahideen.

This song is called "Zama da meeney yara." I guess it's just a love song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeKjxJsWybY
This is another song that appears to be much more political/patriotic called "Ae Sarbaza Yara," with the clip showing the Afghan army at the time:

This is a song that seems pretty sad called "Zama Shireen Afghanistan." I'm not sure who the singer is, but I think it might be Daud Hanif (I know he's the singer mentioned in the lyrics, but I'm not 100% sure whether he's also the one in the video. It would make sense, though, because the lyrics match this video pretty closely):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8uU9lk2LIg
Lyrics: http://pashtolyrics.com/2012/03/zama-sh ... aud-hanif/

This is "Sta de stergo" by Farhad Darya:

Inder Geet is an Afghan Sikh singer who usually sings in Dari. I don't think he's released any other songs in Pashto besides this one (in fact, there's only one other song I've ever seen a video of him singing in any other language). This song he sang in Pashto is called "Rasha Rasha":
