| Katran Ki Bori Kandhon Pe Paiband Laga Ke Bandon Pe | Take those bundles of cloth Make a quilt of life |
| Katran Ki Bori Kandhon Pe Paiband Laga Ke Bandon Pe | Take those bundles of cloth Make a quilt of life |
| Chal Chale Hum Ek Kaaj Bana Ke Toote Button Mein Baksua Phansa Ke Chal Pade Hum Ek Kaaj Bana Ke Toote Button Mein Baksua Phansa Ke Kismat Udhadi Toh Silva Ke | Sew on that faulty button Put bad times behind you Sew on that faulty button Put bad times behind you Mend that torn bedsheet of fate with a … |
| Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga Sui Seedhi Khadi Naache Dhaaga Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga | Needle and thread (x 4) The needle is upright and the thread is dancing Needle and thread (x 4) |
| Jitne Kahar Hum Pe Aa Gire Utne Gadar Hum Bane Jitna Zeher Hum Pe Taank Do Utne Madhur Hum Bane | Slam those doors in our faces! See how wise we become Drench us in bitter poison See how honey-like we become |
| Fikron Ki Thaanon Ke Bojh Se Haan Befikar Hum Bane | Burdened with worry See how carefree we become |
| Dharti Ko Ambar Se Jod Daale Koi Jo Thama De Zara Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga Sui Seedhi Khadi Naache Dhaaga Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga, Sui Dhaaga | We’ll stitch the earth to the sky If someone handed us a … Needle and thread (x 4) The needle is upright and the thread is dancing Needle and thread (x 4) |

| Ek Doosre Ko Hi Thaam Ke Udna Seekha Hai Ek Doosre Ko Hi Thaam Ke Udna Seekha Hai | We have learnt to fly Holding onto each other only We have learnt to fly Holding onto each other only |
| Paani Maati Agni Jodein Humko De Zo Zara | Give us water, earth, and fire We will stitch them all together with a … |

Fun Facts
The song is a powerful and emotional piece that highlights the movie’s message about working hard with your own hands and finding pride in being self-sufficient.
The lead actor, Varun Dhawan, trained in tailoring for a month and even pierced his finger multiple times while learning to sew.
Both Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma worked in a real textile factory in Faridabad, Haryana for four days to understand the workings of small-scale businesses.
The film’s logo was unveiled on India’s National Handloom Day (August 7). It is unique because it was stitched by hand by local artisans from 15 different Indian states using their unique local needlework styles. Instead of a traditional computer-generated design, the film’s logo is a collection of diverse hand-embroidered patterns, including Kashmir’s Kashida and Sozni, Punjab’s Phulkari, and Gujarat’s Rabari and Mochi Bharat, celebrating India’s rich handloom and handicraft culture.
The video below shows how the logo was designed:
