Lyrics of Meraa Naam Chin Chin Chu - मेरा नाम चिन-चिन-चू
meraa naam chin-chin-chu
chin-chin-chu baabaa chin-chin-chu
raat chaandani mai aur tu
hello, mister, how do you do?
baabuji mai chin se aai chini jaisaa dil laai
sigaapur kaa yauvan meraa shaanghaai ki angadaai
dil par rakh le haath zaraa, ho jaae na paagal tu
meraa naam chin-chin-chu
o baabuji mai aur aap, kitanaa achchhaa huaa milaap
tujhako dekh tabiyat bhadaki, alaadin ki mai hun ladaki
phunk dun matar chhu chu chu, sidabaad the sailor tu
meraa naam chin-chin-chu
chin-chin-chu baabaa chin-chin-chu
raat chaandani mai aur tu
hello, mister, how do you do?
baabuji mai chin se aai chini jaisaa dil laai
sigaapur kaa yauvan meraa shaanghaai ki angadaai
dil par rakh le haath zaraa, ho jaae na paagal tu
meraa naam chin-chin-chu
o baabuji mai aur aap, kitanaa achchhaa huaa milaap
tujhako dekh tabiyat bhadaki, alaadin ki mai hun ladaki
phunk dun matar chhu chu chu, sidabaad the sailor tu
meraa naam chin-chin-chu

All-time great foot-tapping song by the great OP Nayyar and perfectly
rendered by Geeta Dutt. Last but not the least, it is the also the genius
arranger Sebastian D'Souza who has a lion's share in arranging a great deal
of golden era songs, this being a stand-out performance.

She is Helen,icon of the item dance number in Bollywood cinema.
Helen has appeared in over 500 (some estimates come closer to 700) movies in a career that spans 40 years and she has danced in in nearly every single one of those movies, sometimes more than once.

She was about 18-19 when this movie was made (1958). As has already been
pointed out, she was born in Burma to an Anglo-Indian father and Burmese
mother. I guess that's probably why she was pretending to be a
Chinese/Singaporean girl in this song?

Just to provide some clarity, I'll just add this, I know it's easy to get confused with the Bollywood stuff, but rarely, if ever, is the actor or actress the same person who is truly singing. This is why there are singing credits, and acting credits. Usually in India, especially in the Bollywood musical film industry, songs are composed by one person, they hire a singer to sing the song, and the actress hired to be in the film will lip synch to the song during the film.
