Lyrics
Refrain
Oh maro maro pichakari
Oh spray spray the pump (pichakari = Holi colour spray)
Ke rang jaiye sari umariya hamari
So the colour covers my whole life
Oh maro maro oh maro maro pichakari
Oh spray spray, oh spray spray the pump
Verse 1
Bheegi mori sari choli mori bheegi
You soaked my dress, you soaked my blouse
Ang ang bheego tune vo rama
You have soaked every part of my body, oh Rama
Verse 2
Main hoon tori gori chanda ki chakori
I am your beautiful maiden, a bird in love with the moon (chakori)
Aaja aaja piya ab khelenge Holi
Come come my love now let us play Holi
Verse 3
Din ho ya raat ho haatho mein haatho ho
Whether it is day or night, we will be hand in hand
Raja main toh chaaho jeevan bhar ka saath ho
Oh king I want to spend my whole life with you
Meaning
