× Me sem gova chavoro
Khelav mange majlacho
Oj andale mandale
E chora man astaren
Kas me astarava
Me mange asava
Samo jekh chaj ni mangel
Voj mande puchel
O opa cupa
na ker mange chaje muka
Ti daj ka merel ako ni keles
Lumbaj, lumbaj, lumbalaj ajde ajde ajde
Sa e chaja kelena
Voj ni mangel te khelel
Oj andale mandale
Mudarel man o devel
Kas me astarava
Me mange asava
Samo jekh chaj ni mangel
Voj mande puchel
O opa cupa
na ker mange chaje muka
Ti daj ka merel ako ni keles
Lumbaj, lumbaj, lumbalaj ajde ajde ajde
Ava Ruza ava khel
a i tiro mek avel
Oj andale mandale
E sviracha ka kelen
Kas me astarava
Me mange asava
Samo jekh chaj ni mangel
Voj mande puchel
O opa cupa
na ker mange chaje muka
Ti daj ka merel ako ni keles
Lumbaj, lumbaj, lumbalaj ajde ajde ajde
I am a poor guy,
One of the best dancers,
The girls grab me to dance.
Whomever I grab is glad,
Only one girl doesn’t want to dance,
She runs away from me.
O girl, why are you making trouble for me?
May your mother die if you don’t dance!
Come on, come on, Come on!
All the girls are dancing,
But she is crying sadly,
In my heart a fire burns.
Come on, Rosa, come and dance,
Then you’ll get married.
Even the musicians are dancing.
