ZARA SI MEHNDI LAGA DO
Zara si mehndi laga do
Please apply a little henna* on my hands
(*Henna: a paste from the leaves of a plant, that is used to apply nice art designs on a person's hands and feet in special occasions)
Jo rang hi na chadha to
What if it doesn't impart any color
Tum ek nazar dekh lena
Then you take a look
Jo main na dekhoon... to
What if I don't look... then
To... hawayen ghut ke mar jayengi
Then... the winds will die out of desperation
Aur
And
Dariyaon ke dil sookh jayenge
The seas will go dry
Aur
And
Aur... bhainse chara khana band kar dengi
And... the cattle will stop grazing
Hand pump mein paani aana band ho jayega
The hand pump will be short of water
Chid chidi taai hansne lagegi aur Gulzari patla ho jayega
That irritated aunt will start laughing, and Gulzari will become slim
OTHER LYRICS FROM THE SOUNDTRACK:
Aag Lage Us Aag Ko
Abhi Na Jao Chhod Kar
Ik Tu Hi Tu Hi
Mallo Malli
Poore Se Zara Sa Kam Hain
Rabba Main Toh Mar Gaya
Sajh Dhaj Ke
Zara Si Mehndi Laga Do
