garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi
are garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi
nahi to kaha muh lagati hai biwi
nahi to kaha muh lagati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi

kahi mukh churaye to kuch bat samjho
mohabbat jataye to kuch bat samjho
bina bat surma lagati nahi ye
kabhi muh pe powder jamati nahi ye
ye jab bhi takalluf pe tyyar hogi
koi na koi chiz darkar hogi
kaha warna julfe banati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi
nahi to kaha muh lagati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi

haye padoshan ki sari pe dil aa gaya ho
ya sone ka locket koi bha gaya ho
cinema ya thietar me jane ki dhun ho
ke bhiaya ko dulha banane ki dhun ho
kisi byah sadi ki dawat mili ho
garaz koi mahangi jarurat padi hai
tabhi itne kartab dikhati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi
nahi to kaha muh lagati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi

achanak barasta hai jab pyar iska
kapat me hota hai har war iska
mohabbat ke dokhe me hargiz na aana
bada matter out hai ye jamana
nahi chahte ho jo nuksan sahna
to sunlo meri jan ye johny ka kahna
ke has has ke kaichi chalati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi
nahi to kaha muh lagati hai biwi
garaz ho to nakhre dikhati hai biwi

When need arises, the wife displays her charm,
Ah, when need arises, the wife displays her charm.
Else, where would she offer her face, her arm?
Else, where would she offer her face, her arm?
Ah, when need arises, the wife displays her charm.

If she turns her face, then understand the signs,
If she feigns affection, then heed the lines.
Without a cause, kohl she won't apply,
Nor powder her face beneath the sky.
When she prepares for such elaborate shows,
Some need, some desire, undoubtedly grows.
Else, why would she then arrange her long hair?
When need arises, the wife displays her charm,
Else, where would she offer her face, her arm?
When need arises, the wife displays her charm.

Perhaps her heart desires the neighbor's gown,
Or a golden locket has her spirit down.
A cinema trip, a theatre's call,
Or plans to make brother stand up tall,
A wedding feast, a sari's lure,
Some costly need she must procure.
Thus, she performs these feats, a brilliant display,
When need arises, the wife displays her charm,
Else, where would she offer her face, her arm?
When need arises, the wife displays her charm.

When suddenly her love begins to pour,
Deceit conceals itself behind the door.
In love's deception, never you must fall,
This world, my friend, is quite the trick of all.
If you desire no loss to bear,
Then listen, darling, to this old saying I share:
With laughter, scissors she will deploy,
When need arises, the wife displays her charm,
Else, where would she offer her face, her arm?
When need arises, the wife displays her charm.
