Lyrics –

Laal chidiye ho
(You are my red bird)

Chambe nachcha jo jaana
(We have to go to Chamba to dance)

Meri laal chidhiye
(You are my red bird)

Mere paira jo mochdo
(Get a slipper for my feet)

Leyi desarlo
(Get it)

Chambe nachcha jo jaana
(Then only I will come to Chamba to dance)

Ho jaana meri laal chidiye
(You are my red bird)

Mere desha ra rawaj
(This the ritual practiced in our region)

Meri laal chidiye
(You are my red bird)

Mere Dhaka jo ghaghru
(Get a skirt for my waist)

Leyi desarlo
(Get it)

Chambe nachcha jo jaana
(Then only I will come to Chamba to dance)
