Searching for the handsome man to embrace him,
It stirs up a sweet desire
Searching for the handsome man to embrace him,
It stirs up a sweet desire
Dressed in a wedding saree,
Will she come with sweat glistening on her neck?
Dressed in a wedding saree,
Will she come with sweat glistening on her neck?
When she smiles, desire smiles too
When she leans in, her dress gently slips
Hey, when embraced, the body shivers with delight
Just thinking of it creates a thirst
Morning and evening at the Goddess's shrine,
Will he offer his prayers?
Morning and evening at the Goddess's shrine,

The melody of silver anklets
Rings in my ears
From the henna on my hands,
Your sweet fragrance drifts out
The palace gates must open,
And I will wage a battle of love
The palace gates must open,
And I will wage a battle of love
Dressed in a wedding saree,
Will she come with sweat glistening on her neck?
Dressed in a wedding saree,
Will she come with sweat glistening on her neck?
Hey hey hey hey...
The tears flowing from your eyes,
I will wipe away with my fingers
Hey, who can conquer this man?
His heart is as sweet as sugarcane juice
He is full of love and care, girl,
Keep that in your heart
He is full of love and care, girl,
Keep that in your heart
Dressed in a wedding saree,
Will she come with sweat glistening on her neck?
Dressed in a wedding saree,
Will she come with sweat glistening on her neck?
Jhalak jhalak shan

Rings in my ears
From the henna on my hands,
Your sweet fragrance drifts out
Just as the young hearts desire,
The wedding must happen... mm
Just as the young hearts desire,
The wedding must happen

The wedding must happen
Just as the young hearts desire,
The wedding must happen
