Chandan choti chandani,

Apne sasure te bhi bole.
Wa sasu te bhi bole,
Apne sasure te bhi bole.
Apne raja te na bole,
Raja thain thathola dole.
Wa sasu te bhi bole,
Apne sasure te bhi bole.

Chandan choti chandani,
Jaccha chamakti dole.
Chandan choti chandani,
Jaccha chamakti dole.

Jetha te bhi bole,
Jethani te bhi bole,
Wa Jetha te bhi bole,
Jethani te bhi bole.
Apne raja te na bole,
Raja thain thathola dole.
Jetha te bhi bole,
Jethani te bhi bole,
Apne raja te na bole,

Chandan choti chandani,
