bade hasin bahane se kaam lete ho
main aaj kahti hu tum kal ka naam lete ho
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
taaro ki chhaiya saiya baiya na chhodna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
taaro ki chhaiya saiya baiya na chhodna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna

main na chhodungi baiya main badi wo hu saiya
main na chhodungi baiya main badi wo hu saiya
dor jo dil ki chhuti
main to is baar ruthi ruthi
to phir ghunghta main na kholungi
mukh se phir ghunghta main na kholungi
na kholungi na bolungi main rolungi isliye
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna

tum to kahte the rani tumko dunga nishani
tum to kahte the rani tumko dunga nishani
laao koi anguthi warna samjho main ruthi
ruthi to kal sham ko main na aaungi
ruthi to kal sham ko main na aaungi
tadpaungi tarsaungi na aaungi isliye
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
taaro ki chhaiya saiya baiya na chhodna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna
vade ki sham hai vada na todna

With beauty you weave your excuses,
Today I speak, you whisper of tomorrows.
This evening of vows, do not break them,
This evening of vows, do not break them.
Beneath starlight, my love, don't release my hand,
This evening of vows, do not break them.
This evening of vows, do not break them.
Beneath starlight, my love, don't release my hand,
This evening of vows, do not break them.

I will not let go of your hand, I am resolute, my love,
I will not let go of your hand, I am resolute, my love,
If the heart's thread should sever,
This time I'll be angered forever,
Then the veil I'll not lift,
My face from the veil I'll not shift.
I'll not lift, I'll not speak, I'll weep, so
This evening of vows, do not break them,
This evening of vows, do not break them.

You once said, my queen, a token you'd bring,
You once said, my queen, a token you'd bring,
Bring a ring, or know I'll be angered,
Angered, and tomorrow's evening I'll wander no more,
Angered, and tomorrow's evening I'll wander no more.
I'll torment, I'll taunt, and I'll not come, therefore,
This evening of vows, do not break them,
This evening of vows, do not break them.
Beneath starlight, my love, don't release my hand,
This evening of vows, do not break them.
This evening of vows, do not break them.
