laga mohe ab ki baar o baanke piya
pandhrah pe ek nayo saal
laga mohe ab ki baar o baanke piya
pandhrah pe ek nayo saal
duniya pukare solah baras ki
dekho chali re katar
o baanke piya sun sunke rang bhaiyo laal
laga mohe ab ki baar o baanke piya
pandhrah pe ek nayo saal

naino me chira zulfo me gajra
haatho me mahendi laga ke
gaalo pe laali pero mein payal
mathe pe bindiya saaja ke
dekhu jo darpan awaaz aai
dekhu jo darpan awaaz aaye
dil legao re singaar
o baanke piya sun sunke rang bhaiyo laal
laga mohe ab ki baar o baanke piya
pandhrah pe ek nayo saal

logo ke dar se mai apne ghar se
panghat pe ja na saku panghat pe to kya
apne hi angna ghunghat hata na saku
ghunghat jo sarke aawaz aaye
ghunghat jo sarke aawaz aaye
hamri bhi kismat sanwar
o baanke piya sun sunke rang bhaiyo laal
laga mohe ab ki baar o baanke piya
pandhrah pe ek nayo saal
duniya pukare solah baras ki dekho chali re katar
o baanke piya sun sunke rang bhaiyo laal
laga mohe ab ki baar o baanke piya
pandhrah pe ek nayo saal

My love, this time, oh, my beloved,
Fifteen years and a new dawn.
My love, this time, oh, my beloved,
Fifteen years and a new dawn.
The world whispers of sixteen,
See, the dagger is drawn.
Oh, my love, hearing this, my cheeks blush red,
My love, this time, oh, my beloved,
Fifteen years and a new dawn.

Eyes carved, tresses adorned with jasmine,
Hands painted with henna's bloom,
Rouge upon my cheeks, anklets chiming,
A bindi upon my brow.
I gaze into the mirror, a voice calls,
I gaze into the mirror, a voice calls,
"Adorn your heart with love's gleam."
Oh, my love, hearing this, my cheeks blush red,
My love, this time, oh, my beloved,
Fifteen years and a new dawn.

Fearful of the world, from my home,
I cannot venture to the well,
Not to the well, but even in my courtyard,
I cannot lift my veil.
When the veil slips, a voice calls,
When the veil slips, a voice calls,
"Embellish my destiny, be mine."
Oh, my love, hearing this, my cheeks blush red,
My love, this time, oh, my beloved,
Fifteen years and a new dawn.
The world whispers of sixteen, see, the dagger is drawn.
Oh, my love, hearing this, my cheeks blush red,
My love, this time, oh, my beloved,
Fifteen years and a new dawn.
