about

Sthir retraces and reflects upon Prabh Deep’s journey and evolution as a human being and artist over the course of the album. At this point in the album, Prabh has found inner-peace and meaning in his life - his priorities are in order and there are no distractions or insecurities that are eating away at him. This represents a massive change from the Prabh’s we heard in the first half of the album - songs such as Taaqat, Paapi and Preet represented a version of Prabh that was chasing happiness in a superficial manner (through money, love, or fame). On Sthir, Prabh explains how and why he had to change, and how his perspective about the world has evolved over the course of Tabia.

lyrics

Mere taare c bikhre hoye! // My fate was unbalanced
Koshish ciggi karla mai kaabu // I wanted to try and control
paisa, sangeet, dost te naar.// money, music and love
Shaurat mili par dosh de naal.// I found fame but it came with consequences
Taqat milli mainu hosh de naal. // I become powerful by acquiring knowledge
Taqat nu kaabu Karan da nasha ve alag.// The high you get while chasing power hits different
Te nashe nu kaabu karan di talab. .// and there’s a want / need to control that high
Aap nu kaabo mai baaro di chaleya c karan // I wanted to find peace through the things in the world outside
Takhat c vjha mai pyaar nu ditti ni jgha. // I couldn’t make space for love in my quest for power
Gali kaabo karan toh baad, // It began with conquering my streets
shehar, shehar toh baad, // then city after city
desh, desh toh baad, // then my country
ohi sansaar Jo andar ve mere.Socheya c kaabu mai krlanga fans nu. // The world was at my feet and I thought
I’d find happiness through the power I had over my fans
Socheya c kaabu mai krlanga veham nu. // I thought I’d control my uncertainty
Socheya c kaabu mai krlanga loka di soch mere baarei te pagal pann mera. // I thought I could control the way
people think and my own madness
Socheya mai kaabu kara kamyaabi. // I thought I could control success
(Socheya mai kaabu kara itehaas) // I thought I could control history
Socheya mai kaabu karlanga te miljegi shaanti. // I thought by controlling all these things I’ll finally find peace
Par fayda ni hoya koi! // But I was wrong
Mai galat mud gya mod, bhatak gya c hor. // I was chasing the wrong things, I had strayed from my path
Ehna sb kaabu Mai karan toh baad v. // Even after control these things
Faisla lenda koi hor, zindagi badaldi meri a Kyo? // Decisions taken by others affected my life
Kyuki baar di duniya de utey bas // Nobody can control the world outside
kudrat da chalda ve zor.// It only bends to nature
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things

Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things.
(Ni milega kuch)
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things.
(Ni milega kuch)
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Andar jawaab ne // The answer lies within you
Andar sansaar eh // The world lies within you
Andar ve shaanti // You’ll find peace by being at peace with yourself
Andar jawaab ne // The answer lies within you
Andar sansaar eh // The world lies within you
Andar ve shaanti // You’ll find peace by being at peace with yourself
Meri taare iksaar hoye! //. My destiny became clearer
Jado kitta kaabo mai saah, raah kholge hor. // Once I learnt to control my breathe, my mind opened up
Jawaab milgey jo labey kayi saal. // I found the answers I’d been searching for
Fir kaabu kittey khayaal, sthirta haasil. // I learnt how to control my thoughts, I found stability
Zameer di nafrat saaf. // I cleaned my consciousness of hate
Musafir ban k mai ghuma mai Hoya fida. // I journeyed inward and fell in love
Dekhi ni kade mai ehni soni jagha. // I’d never seen such beauty before
Andar da suraj jagg gya, hogyi a roshni. // The sun rose within me, suddenly everything was bright
Sheeshe Bina, dikh gya mainu chehra mera. // I saw myself without needing a mirror
Kayinaat de khule raaz kayi. // The universe revealed its secrets
Waqt de jiwan da ant hoya. // Time lost all meaning
Jado da mileya va aap nu, beant hoya. // Since I found myself, I’ve found out my true power
Jazbaat te kaabu karan toh baad, // After controlling my emotions
karam, karam toh baad, // Then learnt to control my deeds
kaal, kaal toh baad, // Then learnt to control time
ohi sansaar jo andar ve mere // The same world that lives inside me
(Andar ve, andar ve, andar ve)
Kaabu mai kitta bekaabu pan mera, // I learnt how to control my madness
kaabu Mai kitte partaave.// I learnt how to control the different sides of my personality
Andro hi kaabu mai karke samjheya, // After learning to control what was inside me
ehio dekhega asli niantaran saare.// This is the process that’ll help me find the right path
Hun fayeda Hoya ve.// Now I’m at peace
Mai galat mudeya c mod, bhatak gya c hor. // I’d lost my way
Ehna sb kaabu karan toh baad je // After controlling my inner self
faisla lenda koi hor, // Now when someone somewhere takes a decision
zindagi badaldi meri nahio.// My life will not change
Kyuki andar di duniya de uttey // Because the world that lives inside me

bas mera hi chalda ve zor.// is under my control

Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things.
(Ni milega kuch)
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Baaro ni milega kuch. // You will find nothing in chasing these material things.
(Ni milega kuch)
Andar hi jana paina je agar rehna ve khush // To find happiness, you must look within yourself
Andar jawaab ne // The answer lies within you
Andar sansaar eh // The world lies within you
Andar ve shaanti // You’ll find peace by being at peace with yourself
Andar jawaab ne // The answer lies within you
Andar sansaar eh // The world lies within you
Andar ve shaanti // You’ll find peace by being at peace with yourself
