[Pre-Order] Sing Along at The Ladies Sangeet - Popular Punjabi Wedding Songs
'Sing Along at the Ladies Sangeet' brings together over three hours' worth of beloved Punjabi wedding songs in one handy collection. Written in both Devanagari and English scripts, it is perfect for those who speak or understand Punjabi but cannot read the Gurmukhi script.
You'll find in here most of the songs traditionally sung at Punjabi weddings. If you have multiple copies of the book at the gathering, it will make it easy for everyone to join in.
While nothing can replace learning these songs from an older relative, this book includes explanations of difficult words, phrases, and cultural references to enhance the expression of the song.
So gather around the dholki and fill the room with laughter, dancing, teasing, and singing - that's what makes a perfect Ladies Sangeet.
This book is a must-have companion for every Punjabi wedding.
Namita and Manisha are friends who share a love for singing, storytelling, and discovering the old traditions of Punjab. Though life has taken them across India and around the world, Punjab continues to live in their hearts through the songs, stories, proverbs, and memories passed down by their parents and grandparents.
This book is their attempt to carry forward those cherished traditions to a generation that may neither read nor speak Punjabi. It brings together wedding songs whose verses today survive only in fading memories, family gatherings, and scattered YouTube recordings. As with all folk traditions, these songs bear the unique flavour of the many dialects and regions of Punjab, changing slightly depending on which family member or friend you ask.
With translations, meanings, and glimpses into their rural origins, these songs invite readers to reconnect with centuries of joyous wedding traditions that have been kept alive by generations of Punjabi boys and girls gathered around the dholki, singing together in celebration.
