He put in lyrics translation in his description box... copy-pasting it here

Chamba Is A Song That Talks Of Nature, Of Separation And Of Love. Its About A Girl Who's Asking Her Mother.

MAAE NI MERIYE SHIMLE DI RAAHIEN,

CHAMBA KITNI DUUR

[How far is Chamba (where her beloved lives) from Shimla (her mainland) ? The pain of separation from her beloved is too much to withstand, so she is asking her mother the question.]

SHIMLE NI VASNA,

KASAULI NI VASNA

O SHIMLE NI VASNA,

KASAULI NI VASNA..

['I don't want to settle in Shimla, nor Kasauli.' These places no more please her (though being very beautiful naturally ) but she doesn't want to live in these places as her beloved is not here with her.]

CHAMBE JAANA ZARUUR HAYE..

CHAMBE JAANA ZARUUR..

MAAE NI MERIYE...

['I must go to Chamba.' She longs to go to Chamba and see her beloved, live with him and be with him.]

LAIYAAN MOHABBATAAN DUUR DARAJJE

HO LAIYAAN MOHABBATAAN DUUR DARAJJE

['I have selected my love from far away lands.' She is in the agony of separation from her lover, she is missing him so much that she condemns her decision to have chosen her love from such a far away place.]

ANKHIYAAN TON HOYA KASOOR HAYE..

ANKHIYAAN TON HOYA KASOOR..

['My eyes have made this mistake.' She loves him, and being away from him is causing so much pain to her, that she is accusing her eyes to have chosen him as her love. Strange isn't it ? You are in pain, you do condemn your fate, you do condemn your decisions, sometimes you even cry when the pain (of separation) is unbearable. But you won't mind it, just because you love him/her.]
