aaj naye geet saje meri payal me
gol se hatho me ye kangana bajta hai
lagayi maien bindiya to rup mera bajta hai
aanchal me
aaj naye geet saje meri payal me

paanv me chhnakte hai bichhuye
gore ye mere badan ke bhar se
bole chudiya sun o meri jaan
hai nahi ab koi gham tujhe
aaj naye geet saje meri payal me

pankh bina ye udkar aaj kaha
janu na janu chali main jhum ke
sochu kyu abhi meri bekhudi
le chali kis gali ab mujhe
aaj naye geet saje meri payal me

New songs bloom within my anklet's chime,
As bangles sing on wrists of purest white.
A crimson dot, a jewel, claims its time,
And paints my form with morning's gentle light.
New songs bloom within my anklet's chime.

The silver rings that dance upon my feet,
Proclaim the grace of limbs divinely fair,
While bangles whisper, "Darling, life is sweet,
Let go your grief, and breathe the open air."
New songs bloom within my anklet's chime.

Wingless, I soar, though where, I cannot say,
Lost in a dance, I sway from side to side.
Why question now this heedless, joyful way?
What path unfolds, where will my footsteps glide?
New songs bloom within my anklet's chime.
