ghir ghir chayi mast ghataye
dur papiha bole
ude chunariya rang birangi
gori ka man dole khaye hichkole ho
ghir ghir chayi mast ghataye
dur papiha bole
ude chunariya rang birangi
gori ka man dole khaye hichkole ho

chuda khanke payal chanke
nache pori pori
balkhati jhulati gati kaha chali ho chori
kaha chali ho chori
sarke chunariya lachke kamariya
lachke kamariya rama lachke kamariya
leher bina lehraye gori dole bina hi dole
ude chunariya rang birangi
gori ka man dole khaye hichkole ho

cham cham aaye nache gaye
albele mutiyare
dagar dagar me gunj rahi hai
jhanjhan ki jhankare
basti basaye panghat sajaye
panghat sajaye rama panghat sajaye
dekh dekh kar dil kahta hai
sath inhi ke hole ude chunariya rang birangi
gori ka man dole khaye hichkole ho

ghir ghir chayi mast ghataye
dur papiha bole
ude chunariya rang birangi
gori ka man dole khaye hichkole ho

Dark clouds gather, a joyous shroud,
The papiha calls from afar aloud.
Her colorful scarves, they take to flight,
The maiden's heart, a swaying light.
It rises, it falls, a rhythmic sway,
Dark clouds gather, come what may,
The papiha calls, his song so free,
Her colorful scarves dance with glee,
The maiden's heart, a swaying sea.

Bangles chime, anklets sing,
Dancing on toes, a joyful spring.
Twisting and turning, singing her song,
Where does she go, to whom does she belong?
Her scarf slips down, her waist does bend,
Without a wave, she knows no end,
Her colorful scarves, they take to flight,
The maiden's heart, a swaying light.

With a joyful sound, they dance and sing,
The carefree youths, their offerings bring.
Echoes resound on every trail,
The tinkling bells, they never fail.
Creating a haven, adorning a well,
Watching her, my heart starts to swell,
With them, I must stay, my soul to keep,
Her colorful scarves, in slumber deep,
The maiden's heart, in slumber deep.

Dark clouds gather, a joyous shroud,
The papiha calls from afar aloud.
Her colorful scarves, they take to flight,
The maiden's heart, a swaying light.
It rises, it falls, a rhythmic sway.
