意思
To work tirelessly.
文化背景
The idiom reflects the 'Jatt' (farmer) lifestyle where irrigation often happens at night (Raat ਦੀ ਵਾਰੀ) and harvesting during the day. The concept of 'Vand Chakko' and 'Kirat Karo' (Work hard and share) makes this idiom a spiritual compliment. In immigrant communities, this phrase is used to describe the 'struggle period' of settling in a new country. Many songs use this phrase to describe a lover's effort to win over someone or a hero's journey to success.
Use with 'Mehnat'
It sounds very natural to say 'ਦਿਨ ਰਾਤ ਇੱਕ ਕਰਕੇ ਮਿਹਨਤ ਕੀਤੀ' (Worked hard by making day and night one).
Don't over-conjugate
Keep 'Din Raat' as it is; don't make them plural or change their order.
