(Intro)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Chamak chhallo — aaj ka deep jale
Shriniwas Baba, dil pe tera naam chale
(Verse 1)
In a little lane where the temple bells call,
Dhoop and agarbatti, portrait on the wall
Darshan at dawn, tilak on the brow,
Saffron light on faces, people kneel and bow
Chidiyon ki chahchah, bells in steady time,
A woman folds her hands, offers coconut and rime
He hums a quiet tune, children learn and sway,
In Shriniwas ke darbaar, night turns into day
(Pre-Chorus)
Soft footsteps follow, whispers of a prayer,
Your name on every lip, your presence in the air
We raise the aarti high, flames in circle glow,
Every beating heart says take us where you go
(Chorus)
Chamak chhallo, Shriniwas Baba
(Chamak chhallo) Shriniwas Baba
Chamak chhallo, Baba ki roshni
(Chamak chhallo) we shine in your light
(Verse 2 - Miracle Story)
Once a drought-hit village, wells cracked and dry,
A mother prayed all night, tears to the sky
Baba touched the earth, next morning a spring,
Children laughed, pots filled, bells began to ring
A blind man opened eyes at your gentle hand,
A lost child walked home, found where the mango trees stand
Your stories travel far — miracle and song,
You turn the weak to brave, you make the broken strong
(Pre-Chorus)
From marigold garlands to the mustard seed faith,
We gather at your feet, every sorrow you bathe
The drum and manjira answer, voices rise and meet,
This chanting heart repeats your name on every street
(Chorus)
Chamak chhallo, Shriniwas Baba
(Chamak chhallo) Shriniwas Baba
Chamak chhallo, Baba ki roshni
(Chamak chhallo) we shine in your light
(Bridge - Half-time, Mantra / Call & Response)
Leader: Om Shri Shriniwas, Om Shri Shriniwas
Crowd: Jai Shriniwas, Jai Jai
Leader: Om Shri Shriniwas, Om Shri Shriniwas
Crowd: Jai Shriniwas, Jai Jai
(Soft) Aarti ki bel, tilak on the brow,
We sing your name — sab ka aarambh, sab ka vishraam now
(Half-verse - intimate)
In the quiet midnight, under a single star,
A small lamp glows, reminding who we are
You hold our little stories, you keep each vow,
Baba, we surrender, we take refuge now
(Chorus - Big, Call & Response)
Chamak chhallo, Shriniwas Baba
(Chamak chhallo) Shriniwas Baba
Chamak chhallo, Baba ki roshni
(Chamak chhallo) we shine in your light
Chamak chhallo, Shriniwas Baba
(Repeat) Shriniwas Baba — oh-oh
(Outro - Reprise & Devotional Fade)
Chamak chhallo, Shriniwas Baba (x3)
Jai Shriniwas, Jai Jai (x4)
Forever in your light, Baba, forever in your light
Om Shri Shriniwas — guide us through the night
Oh-oh, oh-oh, Chamak chhallo, Shriniwas Baba
