My earing was brought by my friend

Which had fallen in the bazaar of Bareilly

I got bashful after shaking my waist

And I said that they’ll attach ankle bells to me, as I’ve come

Take me with You and dance

Come dance with me,

My friend

Jhanak jhanak jhankaar

Oh Come dance with me, my friend

The whole bazaar is robbed now

Forgetting everything, just dance

Come dance with me,

my friend

Jhanak jhanak jhankaar

Come dance with me, my friend

The whole bazaar is robbed now

Dance a little, Call people on the roof and then dance

Dance a little, Pick it up quickly and dance (x2)

I’d made a mistake, my nose ring had fallen down (x2)

And so I got it colored it a golden color (at the Goldsmith’s)

After donning it, I came to the balcony

And then there was so much quarreling and fights in the neighbourhood

On my door-step there is a huge rush of crazy lovers

Dance after making everyone dance

Come dance with me,

My friend

Jhanak jhanak jhankaar

Oh Come dance with me, my friend

The whole bazaar is robbed now….

I was just a tender flower-bud who walked with pride (x2)

I went ahead and swirled a little in the lane

I didn’t realize when I reached my prime youth

The world’s wealth bows down to me

Even the confectioner gives me loans

Dance after making everyone dance

Come dance with me,

My friend

Jhanak jhanak jhankaar

Oh Come dance with me, my friend

The whole bazaar is robbed now

Forgetting everything, just dance

Come dance with me,

my friend

Jhanak jhanak jhankaar

Come dance with me, my friend

The whole bazaar is robbed now
