dekhane me bhola hai dil ka salona
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna
dekhane me bhola hai dil ka salona
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna

gali gali ganv ki re jagi hai sote sote
gali gali ganv ki re jagi hai sote sote
phir se lage hai aisa phir se lage hai aisa
hue ham chhote chhote
sag leke aya hai mera bachapana
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna
dekhane me bhola hai dil ka salona
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna

niki munni nur begam use na banana ji
niki munni nur begam use na banana ji
hasino ka shahzada hai hasino ka shahzada hai
hansi na udana ji
dil uda le jayega chhodo bachapana
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna
dekhane me bhola hai dil ka salona
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna

suno magar shahzade ji kahi bhul mat jana
suno magar shahzade ji kahi bhul mat jana
buri hai yah naino vali buri hai yah naino vali
banate hai divana
ganv hai yah pariyo ka dil ko bachana
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna
dekhane me bhola hai dil ka salona
bambai se aya hai babu chinnanna

He seems naive, with a heart so fair,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.
He seems naive, with a heart so fair,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.

Each village lane, from slumber deep, awake,
Each village lane, from slumber deep, awake.
Again, it seems, again, it seems,
we shrink and take,
Childhood's innocence, he brought to share,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.
He seems naive, with a heart so fair,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.

Don't let him be, no Niky Munni Begum's name,
Don't let him be, no Niky Munni Begum's name.
He's a prince of beauties, he's a prince of beauties,
don't mock the game,
Let your heart take flight, forsake this claim,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.
He seems naive, with a heart so fair,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.

Oh, listen, prince, forget not where you roam,
Oh, listen, prince, forget not where you roam.
These eyes of guile, these eyes of guile,
will steal your home,
This fairy village, guard your heart's domain,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.
He seems naive, with a heart so fair,
Baboo Chinnanna, from Bombay's air.
