Lyrics
Ek chakori dev pe apne
bhaav ke pushp chadhhaati thhi ee
Ek chakori dev pe apne
bhaav ke pushp chadhhaati thhi ee
ek chakori
nirakh nirakh priy sharad chandr ko
nirakh nirakh priy sharad chandr ko
man hi man muskaati thhi
haan
man hi man harshaati thhi
ek chakori
apne piya ko milne dhaati (?)
apne piya ko milne dhaati (?)
ud ud kar neeche gir jaati
aasha niraasha ke jhagde mein
aasha niraasha ke jhagde mein
wo nit din takraati thhi
haan
wo nit din takraati thhi ee
ek chakori
sheet chali
yoonhi rajni thha ji
sheet chali
yoonhi rajni thha ji
tab usne ek baat vichaari
tab usne ek baat vichaari
soch samajh kar chali magan ho
ho chali magan
ho chali magan ho
soch samajh kar chali magan ho
umad bhavna aayi
aayi
umad bhavna aayi
laakar lakdi
kuchh chandan ki ee
usne chita aa banaayee ee ee
usne chita banaayee
shiv shankar kailaashpati
jab phirte phirte aayenge
jab phirte phirte aayenge
chita bhasm le kar ke prabhu ji
chita bhasm le kar ke prabhu ji
apne sheesh chadhhaayenge
prabhu apne sheesh chadhhaayenge
shiv mastak par chandr viraaje ae
ham swaami ko o o
paayenge
jeevit nahin to o
mar kar hi
charnon mein lay
ho jaayenge
