You are my chicken fry

I was looking through a list of referring sites when I realized that most of the people who've viewed this blog were searching on Google for pesarattu recipes, or the best way to make lentil soup, or a nice Gujarati vegetarian dish with papdi on top... in short, it's all those references to Indian food that brought them here. Well, if that's what it's going to take to get some hits..

You are my chicken fry
You are my fish fry
Kabhi na kehna kudiye bye bye bye

You are my samosa
You are my masala dosa
Main na kahungi mundiya bye bye bye

Sarson ka tu saag hai
Main makke ki roti
Jo bhi tujhko dekhe
Ho jaye vo goti

You are my chocolate
You are my cut-a-let
Main na kahungi mundiya bye bye bye

You are my chicken fry
You are my fish fry
Kabhi na kehna kudiye bye bye bye

Garma garam tandoori tu hai
Main to ankhen sekoon
Munh mein paani aa jaata hai
Jab main tujhko dekhoon

You are my rossogolla
You are my rasmalai
Kabhi na kehna kudiye bye bye bye

You are my chicken fry
You are my fish fry
Kabhi na kehna kudiye bye bye bye
The knowledgeable among you will have identified this nonsense as the lyrics of a classic Hinglish song by the great Bappi Lahiri. The rest of you can stay back after class to search the ITRANS Song Book for gems like 'My heart is beating, keeps on repeating' and 'What is your style number?'
