mori preet chunar rang daari, daari re
balama ho ...
paas rahu to man ghabaraaye
door rahu to chain na aaye
it jaau ya ut jaau main
soch soch kar haari, haari re
balama ho ...
jaan gayi main tu hai chaliya
jaadu bhari hai teri muraliya
man tadpaavat, ras barsaavat
kar main haari, haari re
balma ho ...
