jug sara sara jag sara nikhar gaya

dil tera hoi jaaye
ambraan nu choohi jaaye
maar udaari dekho shikhar gaya
hun mauja hi maujha
shaam savere hun mauja hi mauja
yaar hai nere hun mauja hi mauja
rock the body hun mauja hi mauja
mauja hi maujha
shaam savere hun mauja hi mauja
yaar hai nere hun mauja hi mauja
rock the body hun mauja hi mauja
o maahi mera sharbat varga
o maahi tainu gatt gatt pee laan
o maahi mera dil mainu kahi jaaye
dil mainu kahi jaaye khull ke jee laan
o maahi mera sharbat varga
o maahi tainu gatt gatt pee laan
o maahi mera dil mainu kahi jaaye
dil mainu kahi jaaye khull ke jee laan
mithre haasse
o maahi mere asse passe
o maahi mere hathh peele range hoye
dil sang rang hove
dil maahi sang hoye jidhar gaya
hun mauja hi mauja

hulle hullare hun mauja hi mauja
jaan eh farr hun mauja hi mauja
mauja hi maujha
shaam savere hun mauja hi mauja
yaar hai nere hun mauja hi mauja
rock the body hun mauja hi mauja
o maahi mera sone varga
o maahi tainu chumm chumm rakhna
o maahi mera dil mainu kahi jaaye
dil mainu kahi jaaye rajj ke takknaa
o maahi mera sone varga
o maahi tainu chumm chumm rakhna
o maahi mera dil mainu kahi jaaye
dil mainu kahi jaaye rajj ke takknaa
koll bithaake
o maahi teri sej sajake
o maahi tere sang meri gull hoye
har ikk pal hoye
dil bekal hoye bigad gaya
jug sara sara jag sara nikhar gaya
hun pyaar hawa de vich bikhar gaya
jug sara sara jag sara nikhar gaya
hun pyaar hawa de vich bikhar gaya
dil tera hoi jaaye
ambraan nu choohi jaaye
maar udaari dekho shikhar gaya
hun mauja hi maujha
pyaar nu paake ke hun mauja hi maujha
kull milaa ke hun mauja hi maujha
everybody now mauja hi maujha
pyaar lutaa ke hun mauja hi maujha
kull milaa ke hun mauja hi maujha
everybody now mauja hi maujha
Song anlysis - Since mid 90s when Daler Mehndi came on the pop scene, Bollywood made a bee-line for Punjabi verses and lines in it’s songs. The free-soul and from-the-heart style of Punjab found a huge following in Bollywood numbers, but soon it became monotonus with non-Punjabi singers giving hardly any authenticity to Hindi film songs with a Punjabi touch. Barring the likes of Jaspinder Narula and her Punjabi ilk, hardly any songs got their Punjabi right. But with Jab We Met’s ‘mauja hi mauja’, everything seems to have gone perfect. Starting from the music, till the lyrics, it seems like music director Pritam did his homework very well. The next part, the singer, could have destroyed the song had it been given to any non-Punjabi singer. But Pritam has hit the target bang-on by roping in Daler Mehndi’s brother Mika Singh for this song. The voice suits the boy-man hero Shahid Kapoor to the T in the video. The energy is overwhelming and beats hardly give you a chance to stop tapping your feet. The lyrics by Irshad Kamil use words which have rarely been used in Bollywood’s songs, and this is the only reason that quite a lot of the listeners/audience might not have been able to keep up with the fast paced number, when it came to humming the words. But here you have it, the lyrics, all set for you to enjoy the song. So what are you waiting for? Happy dancing!

Pls any1 can tell me wat the actual words r there in beginning of the song….which no one has written in theeir lyrics…..pls someone let me know if u know it
can anybody tell me how the assamese words
“ali kati jali dim bor pira pati dim” got into the song mauja hi mauja.
Shahid n kareena both r simply rock.Shahid looking very nice in ‘nagada’song.n his 1 dilauge in film abt kareena ‘tun orignal piece ho,tumhare jaisa koi nahi he’.absolutly right for ‘Geet’.
Suppose to be a Punjabi song!…but it starts with the Assamese words ..tate bohi bohi loi…which means nothing but juut sitting there
thanx a ton for not only the right lyrics but also for the useful info
Seems, pritam chkraborty might have an assamese connection. Well its “Tate bohi bohi roi/rowtey”, which jst means - ‘while sitting and waiting there’. So, these assamese words do not make any freaking sense - just thrown in there.
Actually the original version of this song is assamese..its an assamese folk song.
“ali kati jali dim, bor pira pari dim,
Tate bohi bohi row.” thats how it goes..
The first backgroung lines of the song ‘Mauja hi mauja’ from the movie Jab We Meet, is from the assamese rhyme called:
“rodali ye rod de,
rodali ye rod de,
ali kati jali dim,
bor pira pari dim,
tate bohi toi rod de,
rodalir maror tinidal suli
kundina palegoi birinar guri…”
These lines are melodious and sung in high pitch as like the ‘Mauja hi mauja’ song.

hey… tate bohi bohi rowtei may not have any sense in this song, but its the part of a very famous poem:
rodali ye rod de,
rodali ye rod de,
ali kati jali dim,
bor pira pari dim,
tate bohi toi rod de,
rodalir maror tinidal suli
kundina palegoi birinar guri

yaar……guys awesome dis song will really make u frget evrythg n will make u dance…….so keep rockng in lifee…………chill …wow life is also mauja hi mauja………cool ..!
hey,i think people are getting bored of keeping assam out of the national scene…..1st step is mauja hi mauja…..many more will come courtesy zubeen and pritom…..assam rocks……….
and moreover,even in dhoom pichuk dhoom,that maajhi re bit doesnt make any sense with the song..there r many more songs with such lyrics…………..so,making or not making sense aint the issue,…..how much hit the song is,is the issue…..
accidentally i came across this page and site. the lyrics is enlightening tho i happen to understand punjabi but for benefit of more fans it would have been nice to give a hindi translation alongside or seperately.
great job ms.
