chanda dhale pankha jhale
chanda dhale pankha jhale maiya tumhari
phulo pe soja meri rajkumari
rat ki rani ne teri sez sawari
phulo pe soja meri rajkumari

chandi ka palna hai to resham ki hai dori
chum ke mukh jhum rahi chandani gori
toliya pariyo ki sunaye tujhe lori
sapno ki nagri me chali ladli mori
lage lali tujhko meri umariya sari
phulo pe soja meri rajkumari
chanda dhale pankha jhale maiya tumhari
phulo pe soja meri rajkumari

When the moon descends, a fan sighs low,
Your mother's love, a gentle flow.
Upon the blooms, my princess, sleep,
The night's queen, your vigil to keep.
Upon the blooms, my princess, sleep.

A silver cradle, silk its thread,
The fair moon kisses your sweet head.
A chorus of fairies, lullabies they sing,
To dreamland, my darling, your spirit takes wing.
My life, my love, to you I'd lend,
Upon the blooms, my princess, sleep.
When the moon descends, a fan sighs low,
Your mother's love, a gentle flow.
Upon the blooms, my princess, sleep.
