Brij mein ati dhoom machaayi
Nandji ke laala — Holi dhoom
Lyrics
Tek
Brij mein ati dhoom machaayi
The beloved son of Nand
Nandji ke laala
Has raised a great stir in Brij
Pad
Saaje shringaar Radhika
Radhika stands adorned from head to toe
Laadhi nakh sikh sundar bhaala
She goes with her beautifully dressed friends
Aur sakhi sab saaji chale sang
They gather where the gopis are
Juli gai jahava sab gwaal
Son of Nand
Nandji ke laala
Instruments play together in one taal
Jitne baaja sang liye hain
All sing Holi — “Ho ho”
Baajate k taala
The Brij girls dance with grace
Ho ho kari hori sab gaavat
Son of Nand
Laulaasi lihe Brij baala
Nandji ke laala
They aim and spray the sakhis with full pichkaris
The sakhis throw gulal on Hari
Taki taki ghaat sakhiyan par
As if Hari has gone mad with joy
Maarat bhari bhari rang Gopaala
Son of Nand
Le gulaal Hari ko sakhi maarat
Maano Hari he gaye matwaala
Colour from golden pichkaris falls like rain from clouds
Nandji ke laala
Ram Avatar says he too was soaked then
All the gods are overwhelmed seeing this
Kanehan ke pichke chhulat jyon
Son of Nand
Barasat megh karaala
Raam Avtar bhiji tehiaus ar
Sab lakhi sur hota nihaala
Nandji ke laala
