| Lyrics |
Translation |
| Jhumri ne maange jhumru se ghungru | A wanderer asked a wanderer for anklets |
| Jhumru yeh bola ghungru na dhamru | The wanderer said I don't have anklets or drums |
| London se Bombay | From London to Bombay |
| Bombay se Kangra | From Bombay to Kangra |
| Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye ... let's go! | Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye ... let's go! |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| O balle, pump up the bhangra | O dance, pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
|
|
| Ramba Samba, cha cha cha | Ramba Samba, cha cha cha |
| Kya hula hoop, kya rock 'n' roll | Forget hula hoop, forget rock 'n' roll |
| Sabka ho gaya bistar gol | Everyone has lost it |
| Arre kya karne hai baaje gaaje | What do you need the musical instruments for |
| Ek dol do meethe bol | Just say a few sweet words |
| Nain tarazu mein dil tol | Weigh the heart in the balance of yours eyes |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Mithiya mithiya gallan kariye | Let's have some sweet conversations |
| Aaja baija mere kol | Come and sit with me |
| Jeevan jal mein maadira ghol | Mix some alcohol with the water of life |
| Main ban jaaon aaj sapera | Today I'll become a snake charmer |
| Jhoom tu banke nagin dol | And you'll dance like a snake |
| Dil ke sab darwaze khol | Open all the doors of your heart |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
|
|
| Yeh naach gaana barson purana | Dancing and all is old stuff |
| India se seekha sara zamaana | The entire world has learnt it from India |
| London se Bombay | From London to Bombay |
| Bombay se Kangra | From Bombay to Kangra |
| Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye | Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| O balle, pump up the bhangra | O dance, pump up the bhangra |
| O shava, pump up the bhangra | O dance, pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
|
|
| Kaali kaali zulfein teri | Your hair is black |
| Gore gore tere gaal | Your cheeks are fair |
| Uspe yeh mastani chaal | On top of that this intoxicating walk of yours |
| Main mar jaanva gudh khake | I'm simply going to die |
| Tu pooch na mere dil ka haal | Don't ask about the condition of my heart |
| Haal hua mera behaal | My condition is very bad |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Baithe hai sab log bichaye | Everyone here is sitting in this party |
| Mehfil mein naino ke jaal | With a trap set with their eyes |
| Lut na jaaye mera maal | I hope my stuff doesn't get robbed |
| Ek najoomi ne bola tha | A saint had told me that |
| Achcha guzrega yeh saal | This year of mine will be good |
| Dekhe kya ho ab ke saal | Now we shall see what will happen this year |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
|
|
| Naach meri jaan tu, baat meri maan tu | O my beloved, dance and listen to me |
| Dil kya hai maang le aaj meri jaan tu | Forget my heart, you can even ask for my life |
| London se Bombay | From London to Bombay |
| Bombay se Kangra | From Bombay to Kangra |
| Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye | Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| O balle, pump up the bhangra | O dance, pump up the bhangra |
| Main kiyan, pump up the bhangra | I'm saying, pump up the bhangra |
|
|
| Kuch bhi keh lo, kuch bhi kar lo | Say anything and do anything |
| Yeh duniya hai ek bazaar | This world is a market |
| Bik jaate hai jisme yaar | In which friends get sold |
| Kal ki kal dekhenge | Don't worry about tomorrow |
| Aaja aaj zara sa karle pyar | Let's make some love today |
| Meri jaan mat kar inkaar | My love, don't say no to this |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Jeene ka hai shauk tujhe | If you want to live |
| Toh marne ko hoja taiyaar | Then be ready to die |
| Haan karde karde ikraar | Just say yes my friend |
| Aaye jaaye yaar jawaani | And the youth will return |
| Sau saalon mein bas ek baar | For once in a hundred years |
| Baatein karle aa do chaar | Please have some conversations with me |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
|
|
| Tu bhi akeli, main bhi akela | You're alone and I'm alone as well |
| Dono mile toh ban jaaye mela | If we both meet then it'll be a gathering |
| London se Bombay | From London to Bombay |
| Bombay se Kangra | From Bombay to Kangra |
| Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye | Oye oye oye oye oye, hoye hoye hoye |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| Pump up the bhangra | Pump up the bhangra |
| O balle, pump up the bhangra | O dance, pump up the bhangra |
| O shava, pump up the bhangra | O dance, pump up the bhangra |
