The version of Lohri Song that best describes this contribution of Bhatti and the immense respect with which this rebel is held in the eyes of all Punjabis is:
Sunder mundriye hoe!
- Tera kaun wicahara hoe!
- Dullah bhatti walla hoe!
- Dullahe di dhee vyayae hoe!
- Ser shakkar payee hoe!
- Kudi da laal pachaka hoe!
- Kudi da saalu paatta hoe!
- Salu kaun samete!
- Mamhe choori kutti! zamidara lutti!
- Zamindaar sudhaye!
- bade bhole aaye!
- Ek bhola reh gaya!
- Sipahee pakad ke lai gaya!
- Sipahee ne mari eet!
- Sanoo de de lohri te teri jeeve jodi! (Cry or howl!)
- Paheenve ro te phannve pit! "
- (Rhyming: beautiful one like a ringlet one!)
- Who will save you poor one (to a rescued girl)
- Dullah Bhatti is here for you (He rescued the girls who were abandoned and rejected after kidnap!)
- The Duallah married off his daughter (the rescued girls were adopted by him as his daughters)
- He gave a measure (sher about a kilo)of sugar!
- The girl is wearing bridal red dress!
