tu gori patli pan teri mithi muskan
tu gori patli pan teri mithi muskan
jan banake pan banake hotho pe rakh lu tujhe
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho

tu saiya sar ka taj mai tere ghar ki laz
tu saiya sar ka taj mai tere ghar ki laz
aachal banake bindiya banake mathe pe rakh lu tujhe
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho

mujhko tasrsaye tera aachal sine pe jo tune dala
mujhko tasrsaye tera aachal sine pe jo tune dala
haye kaisi lipti hui tere gale se ye mala
tu bhi sang jhuma kar galo ko chuma kar
tu bhi sang jhuma kar galo ko chuma kar
jhumka banake bala banake kano me rakh lu tujhe
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho

baho me jo tu bharle mai to pighal jau rasiya
baho me jo tu bharle mai to pighal jau rasiya
jaise suraj ki kirno se pighale barf ki nadiya
pyar jab jag jag aag ban jaye rag
pyar jab jag jag aag ban jaye rag
aag banake rag banake hotho pe rakh lu tujhe
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho

tu gori patli pan teri mithi muskan
tu gori patli pan teri mithi muskan
jan banake pan banake hotho pe rakh lu tujhe
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho
chini mini aayi aayi ho chini mini aayi aayi ho

Your skin, a pearl, your smile, a sweet betel leaf,
Your skin, a pearl, your smile, a sweet betel leaf,
I'd make you life, a betel leaf, and hold you to my lips,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho.

You, the crown upon my head, I, the honor of your home,
You, the crown upon my head, I, the honor of your home,
A shawl, a bindi, upon my brow, I'd place you there,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho.

Your veil, a torment, across my chest, you cast it down,
Your veil, a torment, across my chest, you cast it down,
How it clings, that garland, to your throat, a captive crown,
With you I'll sway, and kiss your cheek, in dance,
With you I'll sway, and kiss your cheek, in dance,
An earring, a torment, in my ears, I'll hold you close,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho.

Within your arms, embraced, I'd melt, my love,
Within your arms, embraced, I'd melt, my love,
As sunlight melts the rivers of snow above,
Love, a flame, a song, that will never die,
Love, a flame, a song, that will never die,
Become that flame, become that song, and to my lips you rise,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho.

Your skin, a pearl, your smile, a sweet betel leaf,
Your skin, a pearl, your smile, a sweet betel leaf,
I'd make you life, a betel leaf, and hold you to my lips,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho,
Chini mini, ai ai ho, chini mini, ai ai ho.
