holi hai…
hey…

holi aayi, rang foot pade
ye jhalak jhalak, wo dhalak dhalak
fir baaje ghungroo dhol bade
ye chalak chalak, wo dhamak dhamak
sab nikle hain pi pi ke ghade
ye lapak lapak, wo dumak dumak
chhamm chhamm naache, pariyon ke ghare
ye thirak thirak wo matak matak

ye chanak chanak, wo dhalat dhalat
ye chalak chalak, wo dhamak dhamak
ye lapak lapak, wo ghumak ghumak
ye thirak thirak wo matak matak

hey… hey… hey…..
haa… haa..

hey…
ho.. ho.. ho.. ho.
dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
chali pichkari, udaa hai gulaal
mann ki hai ghataa, rang jhoom uthaa
rang chalke hain, neele hare laal
dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
chali pichkari, udaa hai gulaal
mann ki hai ghataa, rang jhoom uthaa
rang chalke hain, neele hare laal

rang gali mein, rang khelungi
rang jaaungi
rang gehre hain.. ab ke saal
ab humein koi roke nahi
ab humein koi toke nahi
ab hone do, ho jo bhi haal

dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
chali pichkari, udaa hai gulaal
mann ki hai ghataa, rang jhoom uthaa
rang chalke hain, neele hare laal

ho… ho… ho-o-o-o-o-o-o…
bheegi jo ye chunri bhi geeli hui
sajnaaji dekho main rangeeli hui
thodi thodi tu jo nasheeli hui
patli kamar lachkeeli hui
mann kyun na behke…
tann kyun na dehke…
tum reh reh ke… ho…
mat phaenko ye najron ka jaal
ab humein koi roke nahi
ab humein koi toke nahi
ab hone do, ho jo bhi haal….

dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
aaj hua ik aisa kamaal
rang aise udde, dekhne mein lage
koi range hawaaon ke baal

chaandi ke thaal se leke gullal ko radha se khelenge holi muraari
radha bhi natkhat palti wo jhatpat maari kanhaiya ko hai pichkari

ho-ho..ho-ho..ho-ho..ho-ho!
ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o….

chaandi ke thaal se leke gullal ko radha se khelenge holi muraari
radha bhi natkhat palti wo jhatpat maari kanhaiya ko hai pichkari

dekhne wale to dang hue hain, ki holi mein dono to sang hue hain
to radha-kaanha ik rang hue hai
kaun hai radha, kaun hai kaanha, kaun ye samjha, kaun ye jaana

ho… ho-o-o….
ho… ho-o-o….

holi mein jo sajni se nain lade.. hoye!
thaami hai kalaayi ke baat badhe.. hoye!
teer se jaise mere tann mein gadde…
teri ye najariya jo mujhpe pade…

jo ye raas rache, jo ye jhoom mache
koi kaise bache…
humse poocho na…
tum ye sawaal
ab humein koi roke nahi
ab humein koi toke nahi
ab hone do, ho jo bhi haal….

dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
chali pichkari, udaa hai gulaal
mann ki hai ghataa, rang jhoom uthaa
rang chalke hain, neele hare laal
dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
chali pichkari, udaa hai gulaal/sa-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra!
mann ki hai ghataa, rang jhoom uthaa
rang chalke hain, neele hare laal

ab humein koi roke nahi/e-e-
ab humein koi toke nahi/e/e/
ab hone do, ho jo bhi haal…./hoye-hoye-hoye-hoye…

dekho aayi holi, rang laayi holi
chali pichkari, udaa hai gulaal/e….
mann ki hai ghataa, rang jhoom uthaa
rang chalke hain, neele hare laal/e-e-e

e-e-holi…
holi-holi-holi-holi-holi..
jamira sa-ra-ra-ra…
jamira sa-ra-ra-ra…

e-holi-holi-holi-holi-holi..
