thodi si dhul meri dharti ki mere watan ki
thodi si dhul meri dharti ki mere watan ki
thodi si khushbu baurai se mast pavan ki
thodi si dhondhane wali dhak dhak, dhak dhak dhak dhak sanse
jinme ho junun junun woh bunde lal lahu ki
yeh sab tu mila mila le, phir rang tu khila khila le
yeh sab tu mila mila le, phir rang tu khila khila le

mohe mohe tu rang de basanti yara, mohe tu rang de basanti
thodi si dhul meri dharti ki mere watan ki
thodi si dhul meri dharti ki mere watan ki
thodi si khushbu baurai se mast pavan ki
thodi si dhondhane wali dhak dhak, dhak dhak dhak dhak sanse

yeh sab tu mila mila le, phir rang tu khila khila le
yeh sab tu mila mila le, phir rang tu khila khila le
aur mohe tu rang de basanti yara, mohe tu rang de basanti

dhimi aanch pe tu zara ishk chadha, thode jharne la thodi nadi mila
thode sagar aa thodi gagar la
thoda chhidak chhidak thoda hila hila, phir ek rang tu khila khila
mohe mohe tu rang de basanti yara, mohe tu rang de basanti
basti rang de hasti rang de
hans hans rang de nas nas rang de, bachpan rang de joban rang de

*Ding Ding Ding...* a rhythmic echo,
Dust of my earth, my homeland's embrace,
A whisper of fragrance on winds that race,
A fevered heartbeat, a frantic pace,
And breaths that yearn with passion's grace.
The crimson drops of blood, a fiery trace.

Mix them all, blend them true,
Then let the colors bloom anew.
Paint me, color me, in hues so bright,
Oh, color me Basanti, with your light.
Color me Basanti, let your spirit soar.
Color me Basanti, forevermore.

*Ding Ding Ding...* the rhythm's call,
Dreams, color them, color them all,
Joy, paint it, tears, let them fall,
Generations, harvests, enthrall.
Paint the heartbeat, the musical tide,
The mirror's reflection, deep inside.
Oh, color me Basanti, let your spirit guide.

Dust of my earth, my homeland's pride,
A whisper of fragrance, the wind as a ride,
A fevered heartbeat, with nothing to hide,
And breaths that yearn, with passion's stride,
The crimson drops of blood, the tide.
Mix them all, blend them with care,
Then let the colors bloom, beyond compare.
Paint me, color me, in hues so bold,
Oh, color me Basanti, a story to be told.

On a low flame, let love arise,
Bring forth the streams, the rivers' sighs,
A touch of oceans, in earthen guise.
Sprinkle and stir, then let the colors rise,
Paint me, color me, with open eyes,
Oh, color me Basanti, beneath the skies.

Villages, paint them, let laughter be free,
Laughingly color, every vein, every tree,
Childhood and youth, for all to see,
Do not delay, color truly.
O painter of colors, paint all of me.
Oh, color me Basanti, let your spirit agree.
Dust of my earth, where my heart will be.
A whisper of fragrance, wild and free,
A fevered heartbeat, wild and glee,
And breaths that yearn for eternity,
The crimson drops of blood that flow,
Mix them all, so the colors glow.

Mix them all, blend them anew,
Then let the colors bloom for you.
Paint me, color me, with colors so true,
Oh, color me Basanti, paint me anew.
Color me Basanti, let your light shine through.
Color me Basanti, the whole world to view.
Color me Basanti, paint my heart anew.
Color me Basanti, with colors bold and new.
Color me Basanti, a vibrant hue.
Color me Basanti, your colors to imbue.
Color me Basanti, as the seasons go through.
Color me Basanti, in all I do.
Color me, color me, Basanti's grace.
*Ding Ding Ding...* in time and space.
*Ding Ding Ding...* with rhythm's pace.
*Ding Ding Ding...* find your place.
Color me Basanti, color me to trace,
Color me Basanti, in your embrace.
Color me Basanti, in all I see.
Color me Basanti, set my spirit free!
