I absolutely love the song "Chunari Chunari" by Abhijeet & Anuradha Sriram. I heard it in "Monsoon Wedding," but it seems it was also in "Biwi No.1?" Anywho! I totally forgot what Mina told me the song was about, but it seemingly deals with two lovers based on the video? I'd love a translation of the lyrics, or at least what it's about.

For anyone who has NO idea what I'm talking about, here's the video:

CHUNARI CHUNARI (from the film BIWI NO. 1; also MONSOON WEDDING)
chunarii chunarii... (That) scarf, (that) scarf!
laal ga.nj ke laal baadar se laal chunariya laa'ii I brought a red scarf from a red pile of red cotton
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
laal ra.ng me.n Daal Daalke laal laal ra.ngvaa'ii I dipped it and dyed it red.
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
aa jaa na chhuu le merii chunarii sanam Come, touch my scarf, darling;
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
aa'ii jawaanii sar pe mere I've come of age;

tere bin kya karuu.n jawaanii pe raham what would I do without you? Take pity on my youth!
aa jaa na chhuu le merii chunarii sanam Come, touch my scarf, darling;
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
merii chunarii laal ra.ng kii sharmaa'e ghabaraa'e My scarf is the red of modest blushes and consternation;
tuu jo Daale is pe nazar yeh aur laal ho jaa'e if you run your gaze over it, it'll turn even redder!
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
terii chunarii lipaT lipaTke paagal mujhe banaa'e The way your scarf is wrapped will drive me mad.
pahale se hii taRap rahaa tha aur mujhe taRpaa'e Before, it was torturing me; now it'll torture me even more!
jaan-e-tamanna kar na aise sitam Beloved, don't ruin me this way!
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
aa'ii jawaanii sar pe mere I've come of age;

tere bin kya karuu.n jawaanii pe raham what would I do without you? Take pity on my youth!
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
aa'ii jawaanii sar pe mere I've come of age;

tere bin kya karuu.n jawaanii pe raham what would I do without you? Take pity on my youth!
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
chikne chikne badan se tere sar sar chunarii sarke Should the scarf slip off your lovely body,
aisa lage ke bin baadal a.mbar pe bijalii paRke it'll seem as though has lightning struck the sky without a cloud in sight!
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
jii karta hai yeh bijalii mai.n tujhpe aaj giraa'uu.n I hope with all my heart that I can strike you down with this lightning today!
tujhko bhar luu.n baaho.n me.n yeh chunarii tujhe uRaa'uu.n I'll fill your embrace and this scarf will make you fly!
baRHta hii jaa'e dard ho na khatam Let my agony increase; may the end never come!
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
aa'ii jawaanii sar pe mere I've come of age;

tere bin kya karuu.n jawaanii pe raham what would I do without you? Take pity on my youth!
chunarii chunarii... That scarf, that scarf...
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
aa'ii jawaanii sar pe mere I've come of age;

tere bin kya karuu.n jawaanii pe raham what would I do without you? Take pity on my youth!
aa jaa na chhuu le merii chunarii sanam Come, touch my scarf, darling;
kuchh na mai.n boluu.n tujhe merii qasam I won't say anything, I swear to you.
aa'ii jawaanii sar pe mere I've come of age;

tere bin kya karuu.n jawaanii pe raham what would I do without you? Take pity on my youth!
chunarii chunarii...
