mathe pe sone ki bindiya jamai
hotho pe phulo ki lali lagai
mathe pe sone ki bindiya jamai
hotho pe phulo ki lali lagai
hatho me sone ki chudi sajai aur ye mehandi rachai
bole payaliya jaise koyaliya
mathe pe sone ki bindiya jamai
hotho pe phulo ki lali lagai
hatho me sone ki chudi sajai aur ye mehandi rachai
bole payaliya jaise koyaliya

tere liye maine piya sola singar kiya
tan man sa duniya ko chhod diya
maine ye jog liya dulhan dulhan dulhan sa
ho ho ho tere liye maine piya sola singar kiya
tan man sa duniya ko chhod diya
maine ye jog liya dulhan dulhan dulhan sa
teri mai sanso ki jwala jale ab to lag ja gale
bole payaliya jaise koyaliya
mathe pe sone ki bindiya jamai
hotho pe phulo ki lali lagai
hatho me sone ki chudi sajai aur ye mehandi rachai
bole payaliya jaise koyaliya

puri raat jagi piya nindiya na aai piya nainan me
tune kaisa jadu kiya rog lagaya jiya jivan jivan me
ho ho ho puri raat jagi piya nindiya na aai piya nainan me
tune kaisa jadu kiya rog lagaya jiya jivan jivan me
de dungi jaan tujhpe teri kasam ye bhi sun le sanam
bole payaliya jaise koyaliya
mathe pe sone ki bindiya jamai
hotho pe phulo ki lali lagai
hatho me sone ki chudi sajai aur ye mehandi rachai
bole payaliya jaise koyaliya

A golden star upon my brow I placed,
Upon my lips, the rose's flush embraced.
A golden star upon my brow I placed,
Upon my lips, the rose's flush embraced.
With golden bangles, wrists adorned, and henna's art,
My anklets sing, a koel's song that steals the heart.
A golden star upon my brow I placed,
Upon my lips, the rose's flush embraced.
With golden bangles, wrists adorned, and henna's art,
My anklets sing, a koel's song that steals the heart.

For you, my love, these sixteen adornments worn,
My body, soul, the world completely torn.
I've embraced this path, a bride, a bride, reborn.
For you, my love, these sixteen adornments worn,
My body, soul, the world completely torn.
I've embraced this path, a bride, a bride, reborn.
Your breath, a fire, now embrace me tight,
My anklets sing, a koel's song in fading light.
A golden star upon my brow I placed,
Upon my lips, the rose's flush embraced.
With golden bangles, wrists adorned, and henna's art,
My anklets sing, a koel's song that steals the heart.

All night I wake, my love, no sleep descends,
Within my eyes, a love that never ends.
What magic wrought, a sickness in my core,
My life, my life, forevermore.
All night I wake, my love, no sleep descends,
Within my eyes, a love that never ends.
What magic wrought, a sickness in my core,
My life, my life, forevermore.
My life I'll give, upon your soul I swear,
Hear me, my love, a promise beyond compare.
My anklets sing, a koel's song in fading light.
A golden star upon my brow I placed,
Upon my lips, the rose's flush embraced.
With golden bangles, wrists adorned, and henna's art,
My anklets sing, a koel's song that steals the heart.
