dulha banega albela ho ho
dulha banega albela
ha ha ji mora chhaila
magniya nache rajniya nache
sitaro ka chhela
dulha banega albela
ha ha ji mora chhaila
magniya nache rajniya nache
sitaro ka chhela
dulha banega albela

chanda ke dolenge ho o o
chanda ke dole pe
jagmag kare dilo me rang bharke
dulhan ghar aayegi, dulhan ghar aayegi
matwale naino me amrit ghole
ghunghat kaise khole jab ye sharmayegi
ghar me rahega na akela
ho ho ghar me rahega na akela
ha ma ji mora chhaila
magniya nache rajniya nache
sitaro ka chhela
dulha banega albela

raate diwali ki ho o o
raate diwali ki din hai lagan ke
dekho ji ban than ke milan rut aayi hain
milan rut aayi hain
chhup chhup ke sapno me khoyi hai re sakhiya
milaye nahi ankhiyan jawani rang layi hai
dekhe gafutiyon ka mela
o dekhe gafutiyon ka mela
ha ha ji mora chhaila
magniya nache rajniya nache
sitaro ka chhela
dulha banega albela
o dulha banega albela
ha ha ji mora chhaila
magniya nache rajniya nache
sitaro ka chhela
dulha banega albela

The groom, a radiant wonder, oh-ho!
The groom, a radiant wonder,
Yes, yes, my beloved, my youth.
The minstrels dance, the nights all dance,
The star-born, my youth.
The groom, a radiant wonder,
Yes, yes, my beloved, my youth.
The minstrels dance, the nights all dance,
The star-born, my youth.
The groom, a radiant wonder.

On the moon's swing, ho-o-o
On the moon's swing,
Sparkling, filling hearts with hue,
The bride will come home, the bride will come home.
In the drunken eyes, nectar is poured,
How will the veil be lifted when she blushes?
No longer alone will he stay in the home,
Oh-ho, no longer alone will he stay,
Yes, yes, my beloved, my youth.
The minstrels dance, the nights all dance,
The star-born, my youth.
The groom, a radiant wonder.

Nights of Diwali, ho-o-o
Nights of Diwali, days of union,
Behold, dressed up, the season of meeting has arrived,
The season of meeting has arrived.
Hidden, lost in dreams, are the maidens,
They do not meet eyes, youth has brought color.
See the fair of secrets,
Oh see the fair of secrets,
Yes, yes, my beloved, my youth.
The minstrels dance, the nights all dance,
The star-born, my youth.
The groom, a radiant wonder,
Oh, the groom, a radiant wonder,
Yes, yes, my beloved, my youth.
The minstrels dance, the nights all dance,
The star-born, my youth.
The groom, a radiant wonder.
