chanda chale jhoom ke haye
chanda chale jhoom ke
baadarva ko chum ke dekha na jaye
dekha na jaye mose mai sharmau re
chanda chale jhoom ke
baadarva ko chum ke

pyari pyari mast ghata jiya mora lut le
jiya mora lut le aati jati mast hawa
julfo ko ched de mai albeli mast chameli
sapne dekhu pyar ke chanda chale jhoom ke
baadarva ko chum ke

hare hare khet jhume chayi hai jawaniya
chayi hai jawaniya bhuri bhuri retiyo pe
likhi hai kahania likhi hai kahania
mai to dolu hirni bankar jalim tere waste
chanda chale jhum ke baadarva ko chum ke

khoi khoi jau mai to
chanda ke khyal me chanda ke khyal me
dekhu dekhu bahe unki
hirno ke jaal me hirno ke jaal me
mai ghabraau hoth dabau apne dil ko har ke
mai ghabraau hoth dabau apne dil ko har ke
chanda chale jhoom ke baadarva ko chum ke

The moon, it sways, a drunken dance,
The moon, it sways,
Kissing the clouds, a whispered trance,
But I cannot bear its gaze.
I blush, my spirit caught in fire,
The moon, it sways,
Kissing the clouds, my heart's desire.

The lovely clouds, a joyful spree,
Steal my soul away,
The wind that comes and goes to me,
Ruffles my hair to play.
I, a jasmine, wild and free,
Dream of love's sweet sway,
The moon, it sways, for all to see,
Kissing the clouds, in disarray.

Green fields sway, a youthful bloom,
Youth's reign takes hold,
Upon the sands, the stories loom,
In tales of love, untold.
A deer I am, within your room,
For you, my heart so bold,
The moon, it sways, dispelling gloom,
Kissing the clouds, stories unfold.

Lost, lost, I wander in a dream,
Of the moon's bright face,
Gazing at his silver gleam,
Caught in a deer's embrace.
My fear takes hold, a silent scream,
My heart, in love's sweet chase.
I tremble, hide, in moonlit scheme,
The moon, it sways, finding its place,
Kissing the clouds, in timeless space.
