Marajhin - Mighty Sparrow

You are the genesis of my happiness

You are the one that I have always dreamed of

You got everything I need, everything I want

How can I exist without your sweet love?

When I see you in your sari or your orhni

I am captured by your innovative beauty

If it wasn’t for your nanee and your bhowji

I would marry you and take you in the country

(Marajhin, marajhin)

Oh my sweet dulahin

Saucy marajhin, sexy marajhin, racy marajhin, all right

Dulahin, oh dulahin, hear the sweet music playing

I want to hold you, I want to rock you

I want to jam you, jam you, jam you, jam tonight

Scarlet imortelle trees, fluttering with the breeze

In a land of love and full of sunshine

As the grass is green, so you are a queen

And I’m longin' so much to make you mine

I will work de land and give you all de paisa

And will even drink your jhoota

From your lota

If you only whisper to me 'aw na Baytia'

To the rhythm of the tassa we go soca

(Marajhin, marajhin)

Oh my sweet dulahin

Saucy marajhin, sexy marajhin, racy marajhin, all right

Dulahin, oh dulahin, hear the sweet music playing

I want to hold you, I want to rock you

I want to jam you, jam you, jam you, jam tonight

Shower me with your kiss

Give me eternal bliss

Make me to know true love and delectation

I will forever try

Until the day I die

To enchant you adoration and devotion

Bolo bolo kyah hamsey mohabbat kiya

Say you’ll give me all your sweet loving forever

Tum hee mera sapne sundar ki raanee

Anyone could see you are the queen of beauty

(Marajhin, marajhin)

Oh my sweet dulahin

Saucy marajhin, sexy marajhin, racy marajhin, all right

Dulahin, oh dulahin, hear the sweet music playing

I want to hold you, I want to rock you

I want to jam you, jam you, jam you, jam tonight

In this loving game

We are all the same

Why should our cultures keep us apart?

You are my sugar girl

Sweet little honeybunch

You are the melody singin' in my heart

Well already I love roti and sweet barra

I could try and get accustomed to

Then I’ll learn to play a bhogan on the sitar

And gladly trade me toilet paper for some water

(Marajhin, marajhin)

Oh my sweet dulahin

Saucy marajhin, sexy marajhin, racy marajhin, all right

Dulahin, oh dulahin, hear the sweet music playing

I want to hold you, I want to rock you

I want to jam you, jam you, jam you, jam tonight

I will tell you true

The way I feel for you

I’ll do anything to make you happy

So if you think its best

To change my style of dress

I will wear a kapra or a dhoti

I will give you a modern ajoupa down in Penal

And I’ll change me name to Rooplall or Baboolall

Then I’ll learn to grind massala and chonkay dhal

And jump out of time to sweet pan funk

(Marajhin, marajhin)

Oh my sweet dulahin

Saucy marajhin, sexy marajhin, racy marajhin, all right

Dulahin, oh dulahin, hear the sweet music playing

I want to hold you, I want to rock you

I want to jam you, jam you, jam you, jam tonight
