About this song
Afterhours Lyrics Meaning
Afterhours is a Punjabi Pop track by Bir and thiarajxtt, released on July 6, 2022 through Unbothered Records. Written by Bir and Dhanju, with composition and music by thiarajxtt, the song builds its identity around the world that comes alive after dark. Slow-moving cars, concealed faces, late-night movement and a trap-heavy atmosphere give it a secretive, almost cinematic feel.
Much of the song revolves around staying low-key despite being surrounded by danger and excess. Bir describes a circle that keeps its activities hidden, avoids unnecessary attention and operates through connections that are deliberately difficult to trace. References to hoodies, monitored phone calls, Snapchat, weapons, dealers and illegal business all add to the sense of a life lived outside ordinary boundaries. Even wealth is presented in the same understated way: money may be flowing freely, but showing it off is not part of the image.
That contrast is central to Afterhours. The characters in the song have access to money, weapons and influence, yet their strength is portrayed through secrecy rather than public display. The later lines continue this mood with quiet operations, an unidentified gang arriving without warning, Ferragamo glasses hiding red eyes and intoxication stretching from daytime into the night. Together, these details make Afterhours less about a conventional party scene and more about an underground nightlife shaped by secrecy, risk, status and controlled confidence.

Do cheejan pakkiyan jo geejhe da shingaar ne
Ikk paase sand, dooje paase MAG chaar ne
Hoodiyan de pehre thalle chehre nahiyo disde
Low-key bande, billo, khoofiya vichaar ne
I always carry two items with me that I consider to be essential. One side of my pocket is adorned with a tool, while the other side has MAG-IV. To maintain anonymity, my companions and I wear hoodies that conceal our faces. Although my associates prefer to keep a low profile, their opinions are quite unconventional and often the opposite of what one might expect.
Wagg katilan da naal rehnda jo
Raatan kaaliyan te gaddi aa slow
Dabbi kaal tange, karde ni show
I associate with a group of individuals who are known for their lethal skills. During our nightly excursions, our cars move at a leisurely pace. Although we carry deadly weapons, we are discreet and never flaunt them.
Looi-kande khad’de aa vajjdi trap ‘te
Saade aala hood, biba, labhna nahi map ‘te
Siddhi call lagni nahi, number aa tap ‘te
Je karna aa raabta te aaja tu Snap ‘te
This trap beat is so powerful that it sends shivers down people’s spines when they hear it. Our group is unique, and you won’t find anyone like us anywhere on the map. Due to certain circumstances, I am unable to be reached through my phone directly, as it may be monitored. If you wish to contact me, please reach out to me through Snapchat.
Dealer’an-Plug’an naal saadi behni-uthni
Asle di range aiddi chheti nahiyo mukkni
Chitt parcha aali khed’de shikaar ne
Source naah puchh, biba, kaale kaarobar ne
Our daily dealings involve frequent interactions with drug suppliers and dealers. Our influence and reach are not easily diminished or threatened. However, our involvement in this lifestyle often leads to swift legal action being taken against us. If you are curious about how we make our living, understand that it involves engaging in illicit and unlawful activities.
Waang Bulleya de cash da flow
Raatan kaaliyan te gaddi aa slow
Dabbi kaal tange, karde ni show
Raatan kaaliyan te gaddi aa slow
Dabbi kaal tange, karde ni show
Our financial situation can be compared to the effortless flow of words from the great poet Bulle Shah’s mouth. Cash seems to flow freely and abundantly in our lives. During our nightly excursions, our cars move at a leisurely pace. Although we carry deadly weapons, we are discreet and never flaunt them.
Halke aan pairan naal hundi kaarvaai aa
Pata nahiyo lagda ke gang kitthon aayi aa
Ferragamo akkhan aali laalgi aa dhakdi
Khaadi hundi dine, rehnde raat tak high aa
We handle difficult situations discreetly, ensuring that our identities and origins remain unknown. Ferragamo eyewear conceals the redness in our eyes. Our consumption of drugs often occurs in the morning, and we remain under the influence throughout the night.
Vekh chehreyan ton dulda glow
Raatan kaaliyan te gaddi aa slow
Dabbi kaal tange, karde ni show
Raatan kaaliyan te gaddi aa slow
Dabbi kaal tange, karde ni show
Our adversaries’ confidence and happiness quickly diminish in our presence, causing their once-glowing faces to lose their radiance. During our nightly excursions, our cars move at a leisurely pace. Although we carry deadly weapons, we are discreet and never flaunt them.
