is chand se mathe pe jo bal dekh raha hu
hilta hua ek taj mahal dekh raha hu
payal bajati chali ho kaha payal bajati chali ho kaha
dil tham kar hum khade hai yaha
aise na ja aye dilruba abhi pyar hona laga hai jawa
payal bajati chali ho kaha
dil tham kar hum khade hai yaha
aise na ja aye dilruba abhi pyar hona laga hai jawa
payal bajati chali ho kaha

ched jara si hamne ki or bura tum man gaye
ched jara si hamne ki or bura tum man gaye
diwane se pyar hai tumko dar parda hum jan gaye
dar parda hum jan gaye payal bajati chali ho kaha
dil tham kar hum khade hai yaha
aise na ja aye dilruba abhi pyar hone laga hai jawa
payal bajati chali ho kaha

chhodo bhi jidd man bhi jao aao baithe pyar kare
chhodo bhi jidd man bhi jao aao baithe pyar kare
ik manjil ke hum do rahi ulfat ka ikrar kare ulfat ka ikrar kare
payal bajati chali ho kaha dil tham kar hum khade hai yaha
aise na ja aye dilruba abhi pyar hone laga hai jawa
payal bajati chali ho kaha

Upon your brow, a crescent moon I see,
A Taj Mahal, swaying, beckons me.
Where do you wander, your anklets' chime?
My heart, I hold, arrested in time.
Do not depart, my love, my only star,
For love's young fire has reached so far.
Where do you wander, your anklets' chime?

A gentle jest, and anger flares so bright,
A gentle jest, and anger flares so bright,
That you love a madman, I now see the light.
I know the truth, Where do you wander, your anklets' chime?
My heart, I hold, arrested in time.
Do not depart, my love, my only star,
For love's young fire has reached so far.
Where do you wander, your anklets' chime?

Leave your pride, yield, and sit with me,
Leave your pride, yield, and sit with me,
We are travelers on love's decree.
Let us embrace, as one, our destiny.
Where do you wander, your anklets' chime?
My heart, I hold, arrested in time.
Do not depart, my love, my only star,
For love's young fire has reached so far.
Where do you wander, your anklets' chime?
