Chhaava Movie’s Aaya Re Toofan Lyrics [English Translation]
Hai Narsingh yeh,
This is Narsingh!
Rag-rag mein, rag-rag mein le toofan!
In every vein, a storm rages!
Yug jaage-jaage, haan,
Ages awaken, yes, awaken—
Jaage-jaage, aisa laaya re toofan!
Such a storm has arrived!
O, bhagwe ki shaan mein chamka aasmaan
Oh, the sky shines with the glory of saffron.
Aayaa, aayaa, aayaa re toofan!
The storm has come, has come, has come!
Ek aankh mein paani aur ek mein armaan
One eye holds tears, the other holds dreams.
Aayaa, aayaa, aayaa re toofan!
The storm has come, has come, has come!
Hai Narsingh yeh,
This is Narsingh!
Rag-rag mein, rag-rag mein le toofan!
In every vein, a storm rages!

The anklets speak—
Chham, chham, chham, chham, chham
Chham, chham, chham, chham, chham!
Ghoome re dharti yeh pairon tale
The earth spins beneath my feet.
Jee chaahe jee-bhar ke hum naach lein
My heart desires to dance freely.
Ho-ho, oonche hain amber se bhi hausle, dekho
Oh, my courage soars higher than the sky—look!
Bole, payal bole
The anklets speak—
Chham, chham, chham, chham, chham
Chham, chham, chham, chham, chham!
Bhoopati, bhoopati deva

It carries responsibility, it carries duty.
