mehandi rachegi maathe bindiya sajegi
mehandi rachegi maathe bindiya sajegi
haye ab meri banno dulhaniya banegi
mehandi rachegi maathe bindiya sajegi
mehandi rachegi maathe bindiya sajegi

gajra bhi mahkega kajre ke sang sang
gajra bhi mahkega kajre ke sang sang
chandi sa damkega gudiya ka ang ang
bolo me misri ki
bolo me misri ki daliya bharegi
haye ab meri banno dulhaniya banegi
mehandi rachegi mathe bindiya sajegi
mehandi rachegi mathe bindiya sajegi

angana me jab tak bajegi shehnaiya
angana me jab tak bajegi shehnaiya
todegi darpan ke aage angdaiya
ghunghta uthega to
ghunghta uthega to chhuimuyi banegi
haye ab meri banno dulhaniya banegi
mehandi rachegi mathe bindiya sajegi
mehandi rachegi mathe bindiya sajegi

bandhegi payal aur pahengi jhumke
bandhegi payal aur pahengi jhumke
jayegi piya ke ghar deti huye thumke
maiyke me ab na
maiyke me ab na tabiyat lagegi
haye ab meri banno dulhaniya banegi
mehandi rachegi maathe bindiya sajegi

Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam,
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam,
My bride, my beloved, will live her dream.
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam,
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam.

The garland will scent, with kohl's embrace,
The garland will scent, with kohl's embrace,
Like silver, her form, in its delicate space.
Her words will be sweet,
Her words will be sweet, like sugar's embrace,
My bride, my beloved, will live her dream.
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam,
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam.

Until the shehnai's song fills the air,
Until the shehnai's song fills the air,
Before the mirror, she’ll shed tender care.
Her veil will lift,
Her veil will lift, shy, a mimosa's prayer,
My bride, my beloved, will live her dream.
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam,
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam.

She’ll bind on anklets, wear earrings bright,
She’ll bind on anklets, wear earrings bright,
To her beloved's home, with dancing delight.
Here in her home, no
Here in her home, no longer her heart takes flight,
My bride, my beloved, will live her dream.
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam.
Henna will paint, a bindi will gleam.
