chhalkao jhum ke paimana khushi ka
hans ke jo gujar de jina hai usi ka
chhalkao jhum ke paimana khushi ka
hans ke jo gujar de jina hai usi ka

zinda dil wale rakhte hai dil se kam
hum to karte hai dur hi se salam
are zinda dil wale rakhte hai dil se kam
hum to karte hai dur hi se salam

dil se hum hain humse hai zindagi
chhalkao jhum ke paimana khushi ka
hans ke jo gujar de jina hai usi ka

jab tak jivan ki sham hansti rahe
aur ye zulfo ki rut mahakti rahe
are jab tak jivan ki sham hansti rahe
aur ye zulfo ki rut mahakti rahe
saz dil pe gaye ja dhun yahi
chhalkao jhum ke paimana khushi ka
hans ke jo gujar de jina hai usi ka

Pour forth the goblet, brimmed with joy's sweet tide,
The life well-lived, where laughter does preside.
Pour forth the goblet, brimmed with joy's sweet tide,
The life well-lived, where laughter does preside.

The heart-alive, they lead with hearts ablaze,
We greet from afar, in distant, gentle ways.
Oh, heart-alive, they lead with hearts ablaze,
We greet from afar, in distant, gentle ways.

From the heart we bloom, and life, it springs from we,
Pour forth the goblet, brimmed with joy's decree,
The life well-lived, where laughter does reside.

As long as life's dusk smiles, a tender grace,
And tresses hold the scent of time and space,
Oh, as long as life's dusk smiles, a tender grace,
And tresses hold the scent of time and space,
Upon the heart, a song, this melody,
Pour forth the goblet, brimmed with joy's decree,
The life well-lived, where laughter sets us free.
