This is one of my favourite songs....kinda spooky at times.....but that's how Rajasthani music can get at times....it really has that DESERTIFICATION feel to it......This song....is the celebration of a bride's excitement after her marriage.....the song boasts of some typically unused lyrics....and melodies that were last heard in Rudaali.....lol! GREAT SONG.....a good dance number....and KANGANA literally means BRACELET....but....metaphorically it has been used to denote the BRIDE..... LYRICS (TRANSLATION) Kangana re kangana re Kirnon se sab rangana re - 2 Oh Golden bracelet!....color me with the sunrays Jab chaloon to chan chan chanke angana re - 2 When I walk...with my anklets on.....making a jingling sound....let my frontyard shine with its gold Jab choodiyaan khanke ka
