ho peg pehla yaar ke naam ka
kare duja kaam dava ka tije ne kiya dhamaka
hum taal pakad li jag karta che che che che
hum daru khenche khenche aur pee gaya chhe chhe chhe chhe
choubis ho gayi ho mera hosh hua gubbara
hum naachein tara ra ra koi de do humko sahara
hoye hoye hoye hoye hoye ke chad gayi hai
ho mujhko chad gayi hai chad gayi hai
ho mujhko chad gayi hai chad gayi hai
ho mujhko chad gayi hai
ke thodi lapak ke chadh gayi
lapak ke chad gayi lapak ke chad gayi hai
ho mujhko lapak ke chadh gayi
lapak ke chadh gayi chadh gayi
chadh gayi hai
hoye hoye hoye hoye hoye
ho aaj to jalsa karna humko

na ho koi adangaa re oho ho ho aaj to
jalsa karna humko na ho koi adanga
chak-lakk chak-lakk nache-gaao
nach karo bedhanga pine ka mila bahana
naa hosh ka raha thikana
gir jaaun to mujhe uthana
chadh gayi hai ho mujhko chadh gayi
chad gayi hai ho mujhko chad gayi hai
chad gayi hai ho mujhko chad gayi hai
ke thodi lapak ke chadh gayi
lapak ke chadh gayi lapak ke chadh gayi hai
ho mujhko lapak ke chadh gayi
lapak ke chadh gayi chadh gayi chadh gayi hai

For the first, a toast to the friend's name,
The second, a remedy's claim, the third, a sudden flame.
The world, a cacophony, a chorus of 'chén, chén, chén',
While we, the draughtsmen, draw the spirit in, and drink 'chhé, chhé, chhé, chhé'.
Twenty-four have flown, and my senses, a balloon's ascent,
We dance, 'tara ra ra', grant me a helping hand, heaven-sent.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it has risen,
Oh, it has risen, has risen, has risen,
Oh, it has risen, has risen, has risen,
Oh, it has risen,
It has swiftly climbed,
Quickly climbed, quickly climbed, it has,
Oh, it has swiftly climbed on me,
Quickly climbed, has risen, has risen, has risen,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Today, we must celebrate,

Let no obstacle impede.
Oh, oh, oh, today, we must celebrate, let no obstacle impede,
'Chak lakk, chak lakk', dance and sing, let the recklessness concede.
A reason for drinking, and no anchor to hold,
If I stumble, then lift me, be bold.
Oh, it has risen, has risen, has risen,
Oh, it has risen, has risen, has risen,
Has risen, oh, it has risen,
It has swiftly climbed, quickly climbed,
Quickly climbed, it has, oh, it has swiftly climbed,
Quickly climbed, has risen, has risen, has risen.
