Lyrics of Chali Jaati Chhabeliya - चली जाती छबिलियाँ
chali jati chhabiliya matakti
ho chali jati chali jati chhabiliya matakti
wo to daman ko apne jhatakti
chali jati chhabiliya matakti
bhesh badal ke gori nikli nakhre kare hazar
bhesh badal ke gori nikli nakhre kare hazar
ghat me baitha ghat me baitha
kar gaya dil par war najar ka teer
kahe peeda chupaye kahi tan man gawaye
fir ban ban hirniya ban ban jati
chali jati chhabiliya matakti
wo to daman ko apne jhatakti
chupke chupke chanchal arma dil me le angdayi
chupke chupke chanchal arma dil me le angdayi
dhime dhime are dhime dhime man me
jaise bajti ho shahanayi
lage panghat pe mile balo se khele
hawa baho me lele
kaho kyu na jawani machalti atakti chali jati
chali jati chhabiliya matakti
wo to daman ko apne jhatakti
chali jati chhabiliya matakti
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Chali Jaati Chhabeliya
She sways, a vision, departing,
she is gone, gone, swaying,
shaking the hem of her robes,
she is gone, a vision, departing.
Disguise donned, the fair one emerges, a thousand whims displayed,
disguise donned, the fair one emerges, a thousand whims displayed,
At the ghat he lingered, at the ghat he lingered,
a dart to the heart, a glance's arrow, he fired,
why hide the ache, where body and soul are lost?
Then, transformed, a deer she becomes, again and again,
she is gone, a vision, departing,
shaking the hem of her robes.
Secretly, secretly, restless desires awaken in the heart,
secretly, secretly, restless desires awaken in the heart,
Slowly, slowly, oh slowly, in the mind,
as if a shehnai were playing.
She seems to play with hair at the water's edge,
the wind embraces her in its arms,
tell me, why wouldn't youth be stirred, entangled, departing?
She is gone, a vision, departing,
shaking the hem of her robes,
she is gone, a vision, departing.
