Lyrics
Tum tum tarara tum tum taram - (2)
Tum tum taram taram - (2)
Duneeya ke ho laakh dharam par apna ek dharam, chana jor garam
(Chana jor garam babu mai lai majedar
Chana jor garam) - (2)
Meraa chana bana hai aala jisame dala garam masala
Isako khayega dilavala chana jor garam
Meraa chana kha gaya gora gora, kha ke ban gaya tagada ghoda
Maine pakad ke use maroda, mar ke tangadee usako toda
Chana jor garam, chana jor garam babu.............
Mere chane kee aankh sharabee sharabee, chane kee aankh sharabee
Ho isake dekho gal gulabee gulabee dekho gal gulabee
Ho isaka koyee nahee javabee jaise koyee kudee panjabee
Nache chhanan chhanan - (2)
Kothe chadh ke tainu pukaran sun le mere balam
Chana jor garam babu..........
Meraa chana kha gae gore gore
Meraa chana kha gae gore o gore
Jo ginatee me the thode, o phir bhee maren hamako kode
Tum tum taram taram
Lakhon kode tute phir bhee tuta na dam kham
Chana jor garam, chana jor garam babu.......
O meraa chana hai apni marjee ka, marjee ka bhai marjee ka - (2)
Yeh dushman hai kudagarjee ka, kudagarjee ka, kudagarjee ka
Sar kafan bandh kar nikala hai divana hai yeh pagala hai
Meraa chana hai apni marjee ka, marjee ka bhai marjee ka
Apano se nata jodega gairo ke sar ko phodega
Apna yeh vachan nibhayega matee ka karj chukayega
Mit jane ko mit jayega aajad vatan ko karayega
Na toh choree hai na toh daka hai bas yeh toh ek dhamaka hai
Dhamake me aavaj bhee hai, ik soj bhee hai ik saj bhee hai
Samajho toh yeh bat saf bhee hai, aur na samajho toh raj bhee hai
Ra apni dharatee apna hai gagan yeh meraa hai meraa hai vatan - (2)
Iss par jo aankh uthayega jinda dafanaya jayega
Meraa chana hai apni marjee ka, marjee ka bhai marjee ka
Yeh dushman hai kudagarjee ka, kudagarjee ka kudagarjee ka
