Re: Chitta Kukkar…
two questions:
(1) if kukkar is Murghi, then what is Punjabi for Murgha?
(2) Why ‘Chitta Kukar banere te’… Kale Kukar ko polio hogaya tha?
Re: Chitta Kukkar…
Kukar Murgha aur Kukri Murghi :cobra: kum uz kum ittni punjabi aati hay apun ko ![]()
Re: Chitta Kukkar...
very nice song
Re: Chitta Kukkar…
and why Kala Murgha can’t be on banere?
Re: Chitta Kukkar...
what he ^ said..
kukkar = murgha
kukkree= murghi
Re: Chitta Kukkar...
yes NomiCA is here.. he may know the importance of Chitta Kukkar over Kala Kukkar..
For all other purposes, Kala Murgha / Kala Bakra is in more demand.

Chitti chamri ka zamana kabhi hoga na purana... pehle insanon ki chamri ka masla tha ab kukkar ki bari agai.... bechare be zaban kukkar to fair & lovely bhi nahi use karte
Re: Chitta Kukkar...
I heard calling my Punjabi friends to their fair colored relatives / friends 'Oe Chitte' :D - So chitta means gora?
But how can be a kukkar chitta? Is there no word for White in Punjabi?
Re: Chitta Kukkar...
@muqawwe it is took bandi as known in Urdu Shairi , shair ka wazan durust rakhnay k lee-a chitta kukkar istemaal hoa hay. agar Laal , peeela , neela kala kukkar kaha jata toh tappa nahi banta.
Tappa is a form in Punjabi sha'aree.
Re: Chitta Kukkar…
Thanks Mirch uncle.. But kala kukkar banere te… does not result ‘sakta’ in tappa.
PS: finally I got someone who knows about tappa. I opened this thread about Tappay & mahiye. and didn’t get satisfactory response.

Uncle do you know what is the difference between tappa and mahiya.
Re: Chitta Kukkar…
Ṭappā. The basic gloss of ṭappā is “line” or “verse.”1 Because it is just
one line, it lacks any other line with which to rhyme. The meter is also
quite flexible, but it is generally required to fit within eight counts of
rhythm. The line contains two phrases. Note with caution, however, that
because in print the two phrases are often represented as one below the
other, it may appear as though the tappa consists of two “lines.” Verses
of tappa appear non-musically as proverbs, and in musical contexts they
typically appear during performances of women’s giddha. An example is
as follows:
vihṛe chhaṛiāṅ de
kauṛī nimm nūṅ patāse lagde
(Nahar Singh 1985:172)
In the courtyards of bachelors,
Even bitter neem-leaf tastes like sweet-drops.
māhīā is a brief verse form of anonymous authorship.
Although nowadays mahia is prevalent in Eastern Punjab, it is believed
that historically mahia was the common short-verse form of Western
Punjab. Punjabi folklorist S.S. Bedi, for example, claimed that wherever
one went in the Dhan-Pothohar area in the early 20th century one would
hear verses of mahia “melting in the ears” (1971:164), thus alleging that
the form was the product of that area (1968:383). He believed that the
poetic form dated from at least the 17th century (ibid.:385). Another
opinion is that mahia actually derived, at a later time, from the boli form.
