saal solwa laga ladakpan bhaga
chunariya far far udti jaye re
chunariya far far udti jaye re
saal solwa laga ladakpan bhaga
chunariya far far udti jaye re
chunariya far far udti jaye re

chaand poonam ka mohe sataye
sari sari raat jaagu nindiya na aaye
kaise neend aaye tohe kaise neend aaye
ji kaise neend aaye
tum sakhiyo se raam bachaye
jo na diwani ho, diwani ban jaye
baat hi kuchh aisi hain ji kaise kahi jaye
ji kaise kahi jaye
hay hay hay re
saal solwa laga ladakpan bhaga
chunariya far far udti jaye re
chunariya far far udti jaye re
saal solwa laga ladakpan bhaga
chunariya far far udti jaye re
chunariya far far udti jaye re

Sixteen years dawned, childhood took flight,
My veil, it dances, in the wind's light.
My veil, it dances, in the wind's light.
Sixteen years dawned, childhood took flight,
My veil, it dances, in the wind's light.
My veil, it dances, in the wind's light.

The full moon haunts me, a silver decree,
Awake all night long, sleep eludes me.
How can slumber come, tell me, how can it be?
My heart, how can it be?
May God protect my friends, from what they see,
Lest the sane, they lose, and mad they’ll be.
The words, they bind me, how can I set them free?
My heart, how can it be?
Oh, alas, alas!
Sixteen years dawned, childhood took flight,
My veil, it dances, in the wind's light.
