aisi soni re ni soni aage challegi kahani
aage challegi kahani badi dur challegi
hun aape hun aape hun aape sheesha dekhe
hun aape aape aape
hun aape sheesha dekhe bole sohni laggegi
taali maar do hathhi veera taali bajjeygi
arey taali bajjeygi, taali bajjeygi
arey maathe bindi paira mehandi lali sajjegi

Drenched in love, dissolving in the self, a drop of the soul in the salty sea,
Clap, brothers, clap, the rhythm will ignite.
A bindi on the brow, henna on the feet, beauty will bloom,
Clap, brothers, clap, the rhythm will ignite.
A bindi on the brow, henna on the feet, beauty will bloom.

Nine graces grace the nose, a pearl adorns the nostril,
She beholds herself in the mirror, whispering, "I shall be lovely."
Now, she gazes, now, she gazes, now she sees herself,
Now, she gazes, now, she gazes, now, now, now, now herself,
Now she beholds herself in the mirror, whispering, "I shall be lovely."

Clap, brothers, clap, the rhythm will ignite.
A bindi on the brow, henna on the feet, beauty will bloom.
Now, now, now herself, now, now, now herself,
Now she beholds herself in the mirror, whispering, "I shall be lovely."
Clap, brothers, clap, the rhythm will ignite.
A bindi on the brow, henna on the feet, beauty will bloom.

Behind the veil, a fair face, like a lamp lit in water,
Behind the veil, a fair face, like a lamp lit in water,
All around, the same vision, a dream dances in the eyes,
Oh, my days are alone, and my nights are alone,
And my nights are alone, solitude will sting,
Now, she gazes, now, she gazes, now she sees the mirror,
Now, she gazes, now, she gazes, now she sees the mirror,
Now she beholds herself in the mirror, whispering, "I shall be lovely."
Clap, brothers, clap, oh, the rhythm will ignite,
Drenched in love, dissolving…

What enchantment has she spun, filling the cup of the heart with pain?
What enchantment has she spun, filling the cup of my heart with pain?
Called to the rooftop to see the moon, before the moon she has turned away,
Such beauty, oh, such beauty, the tale is yet to unfold,
The tale is yet to unfold, it will travel far,
Now, she gazes, now, she gazes, now she sees the mirror,
Now, now, now herself,
Now she beholds herself in the mirror, whispering, "I shall be lovely."
Clap, brothers, clap, the rhythm will ignite,
Oh, the rhythm will ignite, the rhythm will ignite,
Oh, a bindi on the brow, henna on the feet, beauty will bloom.
