Film: Zubeidaa

Mehandi hai rachne wali
Hathon mein gehri lali
Kahein sakhiyan ab kaliyan
Hathon mein khilne wali hain
Tere man ko, jevan ko
Nayi kushiyan milne wali hain

Mehandi hai rachne wali
Hathon mein gehri lali
Kahein sakhiyan ab kaliyan
Hathon mein khilne wali hain
Tere man ko, jevan ko
Nayi kushiyan milne wali hain

Ho hariyali bano
Le jane tujh ko guiyan
Ane wale hain saiyan
Thamenge a ke bahiyan
Gonjegi shehnai angnai angnai

Mehandi hai rachne wali
Hathon mein gehri lali
Kahein sakhiyan ab kaliyan
Hathon mein khilne wali hain
Tere man ko, jevan ko
Nayi kushiyan milne wali hain

Gayein maiya aur mausi
Gayein behna aur bhabhi
Ki mehandi khil jaye
Rang laye hariyali bani
Gayein phophi aur chachi
Gayein nani aur dadi
Ki mehandi man bhaye
Saj jaye hariyali bani
Mehandi rop sanvare
Ho mehandi rang nikhare
Ho hariyali bani ke
Anchal mein utarenge tare

Mehandi hai rachne wali
Hathon mein gehri lali
Kahein sakhiyan ab kaliyan
Hathon mein khilne wali hain
Tere man ko, jevan ko
Nayi kushiyan milne wali hain

Gaje baje barati ghoda gadi aur hathi ko
Layenge sajan tere angan hariyali bani
Teri mehandi woh dekhenge
To apna dil rakh denge
Woh pairon mein chupke se tere hariyali bani
Mehandi rop sanware
O mehandi rang nikhare
O hariyali bani ke anchal mein utrenge tare

Mehandi hai rachne wali
Hathon mein gehri lali
Kahein sakhiyan ab kaliyan
Hathon mein khilne wali hain
Tere man ko, jevan ko
Nayi kushiyan milne wali hain
