jab bhi koi kagana bole, payal chhanak jaye
soyi soyi dil ki dhadkan, sulag sulag jaye
karu jatan lakh magar man, machal machal jaye
machal machal jaye
jab bhi koi kagana bole payal chhanak jaye
soyi soyi dil ki dhadkan sulag sulag jaye
karu jatan lakh magar man machal machal jaye
machal machal jaye
jab bhi koi kagana bole

chhalak gaye rang jaha par, ulajh gaye naina re naina
ulajh gaye naina
chhalak gaye rang jaha par, ulajh gaye naina re naina
ulajh gaye naina
paye nahi man banjara, kahi bhi ye chaina re chaina
kahi bhi ye chaina
mere man ki pyas adhuri mujhe bhatkaye,
jab bhi koi kagana bole, payal chhanak jaye
jab bhi koi kagana bole

kali kali jhume re bhavra, agan pe jal jaye ptanga
agan pe jal jaye
kali kali jhume re bhavra, agan pe jal jaye ptanga
agan pe jal jaye
chanda ko chkor nihare, isi me sukh paye re paye
isi me sukh paye
jivan se ye ras ka bandhan, toda nahi jaye,
jab bhi koi kagana bole, payal chhanak jaye
soyi soyi dil ki dhadkan, sulag sulag jaye
karu jatan lakh magar man, machal machal jaye
machal machal jaye
jab bhi koi kagana bole

When bangles chime, and anklets sing,
The heart, once dormant, starts to sting,
A hidden fire, begins to bloom,
My restless spirit seeks its tomb.
Though I try, my soul takes flight,
When bangles chime in the fading light.

Colors spill, a world takes hold,
My eyes entangled, stories told,
My eyes entangled.
A wanderer's heart finds no ease,
No solace whispers on the breeze,
My thirst unsated, ever near,
When bangles chime, I feel the fear.
When bangles chime.

The bumblebee dances, to the rose's sway,
The moth to the flame, finds its final day,
The moth to the flame.
The moon is watched, by the chakora's eye,
In this, contentment, does reside,
This bond of essence, cannot break,
When bangles chime, my spirit aches,
The heart that slept, now starts to burn,
My restless mind, will never learn.
My restless mind.
When bangles chime.
