[English]

Badi shahar ki tu papa ki pari

Socha tha tu mera hoga shreevalli

Pyar dikhake tu gam de chali, tune swag dikhaya mujhe bombay wali

Timro lagi tara haina jun jhari dinchu

Phool jastai phool maya la phool bari dinchu

Timro aoula ma diamond ghati ma necklace

Kathmandu ma 10 wota cha mero business

Ektarfi prem haina garchu 360

Lalupate oplai dinchu mahango lipstick

Hamro sambandhe ko samachar dekhaucha BBC

Nepali maya din ma raat ma position bideshi

Teri maa badhiya,

satyanashai parecha ni

Aaja tero ghad na khuskai ka chodchu ra ma

Swag bombay wali kadak mirchi wali bate

Choli ke piche kya hai mujhe bhi dikha de

usko pin code chahiye mera ATM ka

I'ma superstar dopestar KTM ka

Tala mathi daya baya jata bata herda pani bomb cha maya

Bombay ko maya tu bombay se aya pare papa ki pari ko mana nai paya

Badi shahar ki tu papa ki pari

Socha tha tu mera hoga shreevalli

Pyar dikhake tu gam de chali tune swag dikhaya mujhe bombay wali

Suno sab dil baro

kabhi na karna dil baro

Suno manager bhai

aaj uska bhi bill bhardo paise ka deal karo

Blockbuster film ka heroine banadunga

director Karan Johar ko manalunga

N.H.R gang in the scene, big in the scene like Honey Singh

Baby you know what I mean

Phal pakeyo banai ma lukai khaidiu la

Dil basyo tannai ma priti laidine na

Cinema ko model bhanda kam chaina

Sochirako hola keta ma dam chaina

Mera ko chata na jata na

Daba ke pel diya bole papa na

Mohani lagaune aakhai le

Surilo koyeli bhakai le

Ma parkhi rahe Maya aasai le

Aba choddeina Tamang ko jatai le

Hela dim naaka dosi pong basi khaba

Neta yangla pesingha gomlasi haba

Lava mula maya lana ngai ngala rama maya yela hai areba areba

Badi shahar ki tu papa ki pari

Socha tha tu mera hoga shreevalli

Pyar dikhake tu gam de chali, tune swag dikhaya mujhe bombay wali
