BANI BANI
Prem is
the name of the hero. The word also means love, which is how it has been
translated below.
However, the double meaning is intentional, and should be remembered as
you
read the translation; it gives the lyrics a nice twist.

| mai.n kaise yeh maanuu.n tumko ab tak dil na diya | How can I believe that you'd never before given away your heart? |
| kaisii hai yeh uljhan | What kind of tangle is this? |
