apne rang me aayi rangne
jogi tera ang
mera rang to pad gaya fika
chadh gaya teri rang
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gaal pe gulal mal ke
aayi gulabi ritu
gaal pe gulal mal ke
aayi gulabi ritu
deke saugat mohe chala gaya bachpan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan

kesar kusum jhuhi champa
se ang saja ke dulhan balkhayi
gori chunar mori rang de
maang meri bhar de baje shahnayi
ab to mohe baan jaisa laage bad yovan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan

anghat umango ki rani
ye meri jawani
tu ang laga le
pyar tarang ek saancha
aur rang kaancha
ye rang chadha ke
aayi milan ki ghadi
jhum raha tan man
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gaal pe gulal mal ke
aayi gulabi ritu
gaal pe gulal mal ke
aayi gulabi ritu
deke saugat mohe chala gaya bachpan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan
gulmohar ke laal laal phulwa
khil gaye re sajan

Your hue has stained, O mystic one, your being,
My colors fade, a whisper in the sun.
Yours now, the stain, a vibrant, burning seeing.

Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.

With cheeks aflame, the rose-hued season came,
With cheeks aflame, the rose-hued season came,
And gave its gifts, then childhood slipped away,
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.

With saffron, jasmine, champak's fragrant grace,
A bride adorned, her beauty starts to sway.
Color my veil, fill my parting's space,
Let wedding music fill the coming day.
Now youth's sharp arrow pierces like a dart,
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.

Unformed desires, the queen of all that's new,
This, my youth, awaits your touch divine.
Melt into me, love's vibrant, constant hue,
And stain my being, this sweet color, mine.
The hour of union, here it starts to rise,
Body and soul now dance in joyous rhyme.
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.

With cheeks aflame, the rose-hued season came,
With cheeks aflame, the rose-hued season came,
And gave its gifts, then childhood slipped away,
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.
Crimson blossoms of the Gulmohar tree,
Have bloomed, my love, a fiery, sacred sign.
