The song you're referring to is "Chitthiye" (or "Chitthiye Ni Dard Firaaq Valiye"), a popular track from the first season of Coke Studio @ MTV India.
This particular version is an unforgettable collaboration between a Bollywood playback icon and legendary Sufi singers.
Key Details of the Song:
Song Title: Chitthiye (Chitthiye Ni Dard Firaaq Valiye)
Artists:
Sunidhi Chauhan (Playback Singer)
The Wadali Brothers (Puranchand Wadali and Pyarelal Wadali) (Sufi Singers)
Show/Album: Coke Studio @ MTV (Season 1)
Original Source/Inspiration: The core melody and opening lines are famously from the 1991 Bollywood film "Henna," originally sung by Lata Mangeshkar. The Coke Studio version, however, gives the song a powerful, raw Sufi-folk twist.
Meaning of "Chitthiye Dard Firaaq Waliye"
The title phrase is in Punjabi/Hindi and carries a deeply emotional meaning:
Chitthiye: O Letter!
Dard: Pain.
Firaaq: Separation, or being apart from the beloved.
Waliye: The one that possesses/carries.
The phrase translates to: "O Letter, bearer of the pain of separation!"
The song is a passionate plea to a letter to carry the message of the lover's intense grief, longing, and yearning to their beloved who is far away. It captures the universal human emotion of viraha (separation from a loved one) in a powerful and soul-stirring way.
