I decided to post the lyrics to this song here, since it's hard to find sites with lyrics to this song...
From what I gathered, this song starts off with Hindi but the most of the rest are in Punjabi. It's about the grief of a daughter who's getting married and it's an old Punjabi folk song. The music is amazing, it sounds more like a "remix" song when the tunes are actually originally created by Karunesh. Karunesh (meaning "compassion" in Sanskrit) is a German man originally named Bruno Reuter. You've got to hear it for yourself...

By any chance do you know the actual person who sang the song in this track?
Nope, I have no idea who's the woman in the song. Btw, what happened to the rest of your 4 toes? :P
Ah, would be great to know who the person was. I should explain myself properly, igotsixtoes on the left foot. I have 11 toes to be more accurate but "igoteleventoes@yahoo.com" toes was taken by my evil twin. =P
i got redirected to this post while finding some info about karunesh...the guy who composed the song "Punjab"...i would like to point out that it goes something like "hai ve mere dadea rabba...babul tere kinna ne le jaaniyan...hai ve mere dadea rabba...mahelain vichon teri laado"
which essentially translates to (literally)..."o my beloved god...o my father..who's gonna take away your darling daughter from the luxuries of your palace"...wish you a happy time listening to such lovely music...cheers
