chhaila mera chhaila, chhaila mera chhaila
maa ko bada satae, aangan me chhup jae
maa ko bada satae, aangan me chhup jae
kho jae to kyaaho mere raam
chhaila mera chhaila, chhaila mera chhaila
maa ko bada satae, aangan me chhup jae
kho jae to kyaaho mere raam
chhaila mera chhaila, chhaila mera chhaila

sham sabere mere naina dhundte rahe
kaha hai kaha hai
kaha hai kaha hai, sabse puchate rahe
kaha hai kaha hai, sabse puchate rahe
aage piche aankhe miche anchal khiche mera ghansham
chhaila mera chhaila, chhaila mera chhaila

diwani hue me aisa laage, laage re mohe
jisko dekhu chhaila jaisa laage re mohe
jisko dekhu chhaila jaisa laage re mohe
bichada hai jo miljaye to waykulman ko aajaye aaram
chhaila mera chhaila, chhaila mera chhaila
maa ko bada satae, aangan me chhup jae
kho jae to kyaaho mere raam
chhaila mera chhaila, chhaila mera chhaila
chhaila mera chhaila

My darling, oh my darling child,
He troubles me so, hides in the yard, wild.
He troubles me so, hides in the yard, so fleet,
If he's lost, oh my Lord, how would I meet?
My darling, oh my darling child,
He troubles me so, hides in the yard, wild.
If he's lost, oh my Lord, how would I meet?
My darling, oh my darling child.

Morning and evening, my eyes search, so sore,
Where is he, where is he, I implore.
Where is he, where is he, to all I plead,
Where is he, where is he, a desperate need.
Eyes closed, behind me, my dark one, my light,
My darling, oh my darling child.

I've gone mad, it feels this way,
Everyone looks like him, day by day.
Everyone looks like him, a similar face,
If he returns, my restless heart will embrace,
Rest, finally rest.
My darling, oh my darling child,
He troubles me so, hides in the yard, wild.
If he's lost, oh my Lord, how would I meet?
My darling, oh my darling child,
My darling, oh my darling.
