preet na jane haye haye
reet na jane haye haye
haar na jane aa
jeet na jane aa
o jane na re mera jhumru
o jane na re mera jhumru
kahte hai kya meri payal ke ghunghru
o jane na re mera jhumru

padi huyi tadpu ghar me akele
piya sabhi sakhiyo ko le gaye mele
padi huyi tadpu ghar me akele
piya sabhi sakhiyo ko le gaye mele
banke bhola bhala julmi ne maar daala
aah o jane na re mera jhumru
kahte hai kya meri payal ke ghunghru
o jane na re mera jhumru

kabhi kabhi leti hu main jo angdai
piya mera samjhe mujhe nind aayi
kabhi kabhi leti hu main jo angdai
piya mera samjhe mujhe nind aayi
kaise anadi se rama pad gaya pala
aah o jane na re mera jhumru
kahte hai kya meri payal ke ghunghru
o jane na re mera jhumru

Love knows not, alas, alas,
Ritual knows not, alas, alas,
Loss knows not, ah,
Victory knows not, ah,
Oh, my Jhumru understands not,
Oh, my Jhumru understands not,
What my anklet's bells whisper,
Oh, my Jhumru understands not.

I lie here, yearning, alone in my home,
My beloved took all my friends to the fair,
I lie here, yearning, alone in my home,
My beloved took all my friends to the fair,
He feigned innocence, the cruel one struck me down,
Ah, oh, my Jhumru understands not,
What my anklet's bells whisper,
Oh, my Jhumru understands not.

Sometimes I stretch, a languid sigh,
My beloved thinks I'm lost in sleep,
Sometimes I stretch, a languid sigh,
My beloved thinks I'm lost in sleep,
How I'm fated with such a naive man,
Ah, oh, my Jhumru understands not,
What my anklet's bells whisper,
Oh, my Jhumru understands not.
