kori kori chunar meri
kori kori chunar meri deewani huyi teri
saajna baalma, saajna baalma

kori kori chunariya pe
kori kori chunariya pe
tu likh de naam apna
saajna baalma, saajna baalma
teri naam ki mehndi rachau
mera bas yahi hain sapna
o mera bas yahi hain sapna
saajna baalma, saajna baalma

ye singaar nikhaar karu kya
tu na samjhe aur kahu kya
ye singaar nikhaar karu kya
tu na samjhe aur kahu kya
odh sitaron waali chunariyan
chham chaam naachu main baawariyan
tere pyaar ki main baawariyan
o tere rang rangi main aise
aur koi rang bhaye na
oo aur koi rang bhaye na
saajna baalma, saajna baalma

dil to tujhko de hi chuke hain
jaa bhi tujhko de denge
dil to tujhko de hi chuke hain
jaa bhi tujhko de denge
tere naam zindgaani karke
duniya se ye keh denge
duniya se ye keh denge
ho pyar kiya hain pyaar karenge
hume kisi se kya darna
oo hume kisi se kya darna
saajna baalma, saajna baalma

kori kori chunariya pe
tu likh de naam apna
likh de naam saajna
likh de naam baalma

My virgin veil, a canvas pure,
My virgin veil, now yours, I'm sure.
Beloved, my love, my only one.

Upon this pristine cloth of white,
Upon this pristine, virgin light,
Inscribe your name, my guiding sun.
Beloved, my love, my only one.
With henna of your name I'll bloom,
This is the only wish I consume.
Oh, this the only wish I dream,
Beloved, my love, a flowing stream.

What finery, if you don't perceive?
What words to weave, if you won't believe?
What finery, if you don't perceive?
What words to weave, if you won't believe?
With starlight woven in my dress,
I'll dance, a joyful, wild caress.
In your love, I'm lost, I confess.
Oh, in your hues, my soul is dyed,
No other shade, can now abide.
Oh, no other shade, can now abide,
Beloved, my love, forever tied.

My heart to you, I've given whole,
My life, for you, my cherished soul.
My heart to you, I've given whole,
My life, for you, my cherished soul.
With your name etched in every breath,
I'll face the world, defying death.
I'll face the world, defying death.
We've loved, we'll love, our truth we'll claim,
From fear, we're free, in love's sweet flame.
Oh, from fear, we're free, in love's sweet flame,
Beloved, my love, whispering your name.

Upon this pristine cloth of white,
Inscribe your name, my guiding light.
Inscribe your name, my love, so true,
Inscribe your name, in all I do.
