ja re ja re meri chhod chunariya
ab main nyari jhulungi jhulungi
ja re ja re meri chhod chunariya

tere karan jhula dala nhiar ki amraai
teri preet ke geet ala koyal sun sharmayi
ae ri ae ri mujhe
ae ri ae ri mujhe najariya
ab main nyari jhulungi jhulungi
ja re ja re meri chhod chunariya

bhav ki daali chav se aali prem dor latkayi
bhav na jana chav na jana jhonka de jhatkayi
ae ri ae ri mujhe
ae ri ae ri mujhe aayi suratiya
ab main nyari jhulungi jhulungi
ja re ja re meri chhod chunariya

tune aisa jadu dala sab sudh budh bisrayi
tere rang me rang liya bala ban than kar itraayi
ae ri ae ri main
ae ri ae ri main to bhuli dagariya
ab main nyari jhulungi jhulungi
ja re ja re meri chhod chunariya
ab main nyari jhulungi jhulungi

Go, go, leave my veil behind,
Now I shall swing, alone, unwind.
Go, go, leave my veil behind.

For you, a swing I set in the mango grove by the stream,
The cuckoo, ashamed, heard songs of your love, a whispered dream.
Oh, oh, I have,
Oh, oh, I have, your gaze now keen,
Now I shall swing, alone, unwind.
Go, go, leave my veil behind.

With a bough of devotion, desire I did entwine, love's thread I did suspend,
You knew no feeling, you knew no longing, and with a jerk, the sway you did end.
Oh, oh, I have,
Oh, oh, I have, your face in my mind,
Now I shall swing, alone, unwind.
Go, go, leave my veil behind.

Such magic you cast, all my senses did cease,
Adorned in your hues, I preened, with a heart at peace.
Oh, oh, I have,
Oh, oh, I have, lost my way from the scene,
Now I shall swing, alone, unwind.
Go, go, leave my veil behind,
Now I shall swing, alone, unwind.
