Monsoon Wedding

[Beth Loves Bollywood]

Can anyone help with the lyrics of "Mehndi / Madhorama Pencha"?

I found the latter part in Devanagari here http://www.shaadionline.com/sol/asp/music/songlist.asp?langid=13 and can read that (slowly!). A friend who has studied Hindi for several years says she thinks the first part might not be Hindi.... I'm only in chapter 3 of the Snell book so I'm can't guess with confidence.

A translation of the whole song would be great, but even just the first part written out (in Devanagari if it's Hindi or in Roman letters if it's another language) would be much appareciated. I'm in a women's choir that loves to do music from all over the world and my director and I would really like to arrange the song!

Thanks!
