aali re, sali re, kali re, jhagadali re, nakharali re
bawali re hat, ae hat
aali re, sali re, milagi to dilwali lekin muh khole to gali re
hat, ae hat

patalun me junun hai ae sala hat sala hat sala hat
garm jara ye khun hai ae sala hat sala hat sala hat
ye thodi si kamini thodi namkini
thodi si nashili, thodi jalrili hai
din chak din chak rapa rap rak chik rak chik
aali re, sali re,
bheje me kachumar bhar ke dil ka pinjara khali re
are aali aali aali re, nakharali re bawali re chal hat

bum bum patakha de, dhum dhum dhadaka de
chatka chatka de, are dekh, are dekh
bhatka paratha dekh, tadka paratha dekh, dekh dekh
are aali aali aali, chhori aali re, salri re
kali re, jhagadali re, nakhrali re, bawali re, chal hat

She arrives, a sister, dark, a fighter, full of tantrums, a tempest.
Away, begone!
She arrives, a sister, if met, a heart's desire, but if she speaks, a curse.
Away, begone!

Passion in these pants, damn it, away!
This blood runs hot, damn it, away!
A bit wicked, a bit salty,
A bit intoxicating, a bit poisonous she is.
Dee-chack dee-chack ra-pa rup rak chick rak chick.
She arrives, a sister,

Stuffing the mind with chaos, leaving the heart's cage empty.
Oh, she arrives, she arrives, she arrives, full of tantrums, a tempest. Begone!

Boom boom, let the firecracker burst, let the thunder roar.
Let it crackle and pop, oh look, oh look!
See the lost paratha, see the seasoned paratha, see, see!
Oh she arrives, she arrives, she arrives, the girl arrives, the sister,
Dark, a fighter, full of tantrums, a tempest. Begone!
