meri banno meri banno pyari banno pyari banno
meri banno badi hoshiyar meri banno badi hoshiyar
banne ko tere kuch nahi aata ja ja banne ko tere kuch nahi aata
mera banna mera banna pyara banna pyara banna
mera banna bada dildar mera banna bada dildar
lakho ka wo to dil bharmata ha ha lakho ka wo to dil bharmata

banno ki sakhiya bhi rakhti hai ankhiya
banna mera itna pyara dekho banna mera itna pyara
are banno nawaeli jaise champa chameli
tera banna lage ghasiyara tera banna lage ghasiyara
banna hamara gazab ka hai chaila
bhul jaye majnu ko dekhe jo laila
meri lado meri lado meri lado me gun hai hazar
meri lado me gun hai hazar hazaro aaye jodne ko nata samjhi
banne ko tere kuch nahi aata

nit mange sadi khadi raste ki gadi teri banno chalana na jane
teri lado chalana na jane ja banna nikhatu jaise bhade ka tattu
char paise kamana na jane wo to paise kamana na jane
banna mera hath jisko lagade mitti bhi ho wo to sona banade
meri banno meri banno meri banno na pahnati har
meri banno na pahnati har to banna tera kuwara rah jata
hoye hoye banne ko tere kuch nahi aata

dulhan adhuri dulhe bina bina dulhan ke dulha adhura
bina dulhan ke dulha adhura ek dusre se milke hi jag me
hota hai insan pura aye ji hota hai insan pura
deepak jale jab mile tel bati
jiwan chale jab mile man ka sathi milte hai milte hai
jab milte hai bijli ke tar jab milte hai bijli ke tar
ujala ghar me ho jata ujala ghar me ho jata
ujala ghar me ho jata ujala ghar me ho jata
ujala ghar me ho jata ujala ghar me ho jata

My Banno, my Banno, dearest Banno, precious Banno,
My Banno, so clever, my Banno, so wise,
Your Banno is clueless, oh yes, your Banno is clueless.
My Banno, my Banno, beloved Banno, darling Banno,
My Banno, so generous, my Banno, so kind,
He steals the hearts of a million, ha ha, he steals a million hearts.

Banno's friends, they watch with longing eyes,
My Banno, so lovely, Delhi's delight, my Banno so lovely.
Oh Banno, a blossom, like champa, like chameli,
Your Banno, a peasant, oh yes, your Banno, a peasant.
My Banno is a wonder, a marvelous disciple,
He'd make Majnu forget, if he saw Laila's smile.
My girl, my girl, my girl, she holds a thousand virtues,
My girl holds a thousand, a thousand seek to be wed, understand?
Your Banno is clueless, oh yes, your Banno is clueless.

He begs for a wedding, stands near the road,
Your Banno doesn't know how to drive a car,
Your girl doesn't know how to drive, oh yes.
Your Banno, a layabout, like a rented pony,
He doesn't know how to earn a few coins, he doesn't know to earn money.
My Banno's touch, it turns even dirt to gold,
My Banno, my Banno, my Banno, she wears no garland,
My Banno, she wears no garland, then your Banno remains unwed.
Hoye hoye, your Banno is clueless, oh yes, your Banno is clueless.

A bride is incomplete without her groom,
A groom is incomplete without his bride,
United, they make a whole in this world,
Ah, they become a whole in this world.
A lamp burns when oil and wick meet,
Life moves when hearts find their mate, they meet, they meet,
When the wires of electricity connect,
Light fills the home, it fills the home,
Light fills the home, it fills the home,
Light fills the home, it fills the home,
Light fills the home, it fills the home.
