cham cham baje payal matwali
cham cham baje payal matwali
kabhi jiya ghabraye kabhi nain sharmaye
piya kaisi najar tune dali
cham cham baje payal matwali
kabhi jiya ghabraye kabhi nain sarmaye
piya kaisi najar tune dali
cham cham baje payal matwali

tham tham ke mai chalti hu
haye tham tham ke mai chalti hu
par phir bhi balam tere sar ki kasam
nahi chupte tarane cham cham ke
dhadak jaye dil to yahi khota hai
dhadak jaye dil to yahi khota hai
tham tham ke mai chalti hu
par phir bhi balam tere sar ki kasam
nahi chupte tarane cham cham ke

haye deti hai tane ye sari khudai
deti hai tane ye sari khudai
piya aaj mujhe laaz badi aayi re
cham cham baje payal matwali
kabhi jiya ghabraye kabhi nain sarmaye
piya kaisi najar tune dali
cham cham baje payal matwali

diwana dil mastana haye diwana dil mastana
aise aahe bhare aisi bate kare sunle na koi afsana
machal jaye dil to yahi rota hai
machal jaye dil to yahi rota hai
diwana dil mastana aise aahe bhare aisi bate kare
sun le na koi afsana haye tera hai kya piya tu hai saudai
tera hai kya piya tu hai saudai
ho na jaye kahi meri ruswai re
cham cham baje payal matwali
cham cham baje payal matwali
kabhi jiya ghabraye kabhi nain sarmaye
piya kaisi najar tune dali
cham cham baje payal matwali

The anklets chime, a drunken dance,
The anklets chime, a drunken dance.
My heart it quakes, my eyes now shy,
Beloved, what glance have you cast on me?
The anklets chime, a drunken dance,
The anklets chime, a drunken dance.
My heart it quakes, my eyes now shy,
Beloved, what glance have you cast on me?

I falter, step by halting step,
Alas, I falter, step by halting step,
Yet, by your love, my love, I swear,
These chiming songs cannot be hid.
If the heart should leap, here it is lost,
If the heart should leap, here it is lost,
I falter, step by halting step,
Yet, by your love, my love, I swear,
These chiming songs cannot be hid.

The world it taunts, each soul it scolds,
The world it taunts, each soul it scolds,
Beloved, shame has come upon me now.
The anklets chime, a drunken dance,
My heart it quakes, my eyes now shy,
Beloved, what glance have you cast on me?
The anklets chime, a drunken dance.

A mad heart, intoxicated now,
A mad heart, intoxicated now,
It sighs, it speaks such words of fire,
Lest any hear our whispered tale.
If the heart should churn, here it weeps,
If the heart should churn, here it weeps,
A mad heart, intoxicated now, it sighs, it speaks such words,
Lest any hear our whispered tale.
What is yours, Beloved? Are you mad?
What is yours, Beloved? Are you mad?
Lest my disgrace should bloom, alas.
The anklets chime, a drunken dance,
The anklets chime, a drunken dance.
My heart it quakes, my eyes now shy,
Beloved, what glance have you cast on me?
The anklets chime, a drunken dance.
