[Bumbro bumbro, shyam rang bumbro... (2)
Aaye ho kis bagiya se, oh oh tum]-- (2)
Bhanwre o shyam bhanwre, khushiyon ko saath laaye
Mehndi ki raat mein tum, leke saugat aaye
Ho, kaajal ka rang laaye, nazrein utaarne ko
Baaghon se phool laaye, raste sanwaarne ko
Haan, kaajal ka rang laaye, nazrein utaarne ko
Baaghon se phool laaye, raste sanwaarne ko
Haan mehndi ki chhaon mein geet sunayein bumbro
Jhoome nachein saaz gaayein, jashn manayein bumbro
Bumbro bumbro, shyam rang bumbro... (2)
Aaye ho kis bagiya se, oh oh tum
Khil khil ke laal hua mehndi ka rang aise
Gori hatheliyon pe khilte ho phool jaise
Bumbro bumbro bumbro bumbro
Ae, khil khil ke laal hua mehndi ka rang aise
Gori hatheliyon pe khilte ho phool jaise
Yeh rang dhoop ka, yeh rang chhaon ka hai
Mehndi ka rang nahin, maa ki duaaon ka hai
Is mehndi ka rang hai sachcha, baaki saare jhoote
Haathon se ab mehndi ka yeh rang kabhi na chhoote
O bumbro bumbro, shyam rang bumbro
Bumbro bumbro, shyam rang bumbro
Aaye ho kis bagiya se, oh oh tum
Bumbro bumbro, shyam rang bumbro.... (2)
Aaye ho kis bagiya se, oh oh tum
Chanda ki paalki mein dil ki muraad layi
Jannat ka noor leke mehndi ki raat aayi
Mehndi ki raat aayi
Chanda ki paalki mein dil ki muraad layi
Jannat ka noor leke mehndi ki raat aayi
Rukh pe saheliyon ke, khwabon ki roshni hai
Sabne duaayein maangi, rab ne kabool ki hai
Yeh haathon mein mehndi hai ya shaam ki daali, bumbro
Chaand sitaare rehkar aaye, raat ki daali
Oh chanda ki paalki mein dil ki muraad layi
Jannat ka noor leke mehndi ki raat aayi
Rukh pe saheliyon ke, khwabon ki roshni hai
Sabne duaayein maangi, rab ne kabool ki hai
Yeh haathon mein mehndi hai ya shaam ki daali, bumbro
Chaand sitaare rehkar aaye raat ki daali, bumbro
Haan bumbro bumbro shyam rang bumbro
Bumbro bumbro, shyam rang bumbro
Aaye ho kis bagiya se, oh oh tum
Aaye ho kis bagiya se
Bumbro bumbro, oh oh tum... (2)
Aaye ho kis bagiya se
Bumbro bumbro, oh oh
Bumbro bumbro
Aaye ho kis bagiya se
Oh oh tum
Bumbro bumbro.... (5)
