Holi it is,
Holi, oh Holi, a palanquin of hues,
A reveling throng at your doorstep ensues.
Don't hide your face, oh Queen, come forth,
Holi, oh Holi, a palanquin of hues,
A reveling throng at your doorstep ensues.
Don't hide your face, oh King, come forth.
Lal-ee, lal-ee, lal-ee,
A-re, lal-ee, lal-ee, lal-ee.

Stranger I am, unknown to you,
Alas, stranger I am, unknown to you,
Why did you spray, you rogue, with hue?
Aha, alas, aha, alas, aha, alas,
Yes, stranger I am, unknown to you,
Why did you spray, you rogue, with hue?
Spring's breath, a shy maiden,
Doesn't understand love's true cue.
Holi it is,
Lal-hee, lal-hee, lal-hee,
Lal-hee, lal-hee, lal-hee, la,
Holi, oh Holi, a palanquin of hues,
A reveling throng at your doorstep ensues.
Oh, don't hide your face, oh King, come forth.

I'll fling gulal, let crimson descend, alas,
I'll fling gulal, let crimson descend,
Radha runs ahead, Nandlal in pursuit,
Oh, a-ah, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay, ha,
Yes, I'll fling gulal, let crimson descend,
Radha runs ahead, Nandlal in pursuit,
Why do you tease? I won't play with you,
My every limb drenched, my bodice too.
Lal-hee, lal-hee, lal-hee,
Lal-hee, lal-hee, lal-hee, la,
Holi, oh Holi, a palanquin of hues,
A reveling throng at your doorstep ensues.
Don't hide your face, oh Queen, come forth,
Holi it is.

Don't meet my gaze, release my hold,
Alas, don't meet my gaze, release my hold,
I'd rather die, I won't yield, break not my bangle's gold,
Aha, alas, aha, alas, aha, alas,
Yes, don't meet my gaze, release my hold,
I'd rather die, I won't yield, break not my bangle's gold,
Oh, yield to me, find me to your liking,
Do not close the window, my playmate, my darling!
Holi it is,
Lal-hee, lal-hee, lal-hee,
Lal-hee, lal-hee, lal-hee, la,
Holi, oh Holi, a palanquin of hues,
Oh, a reveling throng at your doorstep ensues.
Re, don't hide your face, oh King, come forth,
Holi, oh Holi, a palanquin of hues,
A reveling throng at your doorstep ensues.
Don't hide your face, oh Queen, come forth.
