Cham Cham Jani Ratein of Siddharth’s Striker is one of the best songs of Sonu Nigam I have heard in past some time. It’s a romantic song while the music of the song has a Sufi touch and it has been set in a qawwali tone. The best part of the song, besides Sonu’s singing, is the qawwali claps of the song which give the music a moving and stopping, kind of restricted rhythm. The lyrics of the song, written by Jeetendra Joshi, are wonderful. And so is Shailendra Barve’s music.

Here are the lyrics of the song, all typed on my own, as there were no lyrics available online still.

jannaton ke dar khule kuch baashinde the chale
le aaye wo nanhi jaan us khuda ka ek payaam
tab se tu hai jahaan mein ban ke raunak yahan ki meri jaan
khwahishon se bhi aage jo khushi ka mile wo armaan…

rare rare raaa durururu ra… rattatarara… rattatatrara… rirerarara..

cham cham jani raatein ye sitaron wale hath
bheeni bheeni khushbhoo jaise teri meethi baat
ujla ujla sa ye tan
jaise mehka ho chandan
baahon mein teri guzre mera ye saara jeevan
teri ada mein masoomiyat hai phir bhi hai shokhi rangeeniyat hai
taaron se bhar doon main aanchal tera,
rab se bhi pyara hai chehra tera.. chehra tera.. chehra tera…

rare rare raaa durururu ra… rattatarara… rattatatrara… rirerarara..

phool hothon pe khile chand aankhon mein mile
phool hothon pe khile chand aankhon aankhon mein mile
bikhre moti subah ki jaise kirne teri ye muskaan
noor barse nazar se noori tujh mein basi hai meri jaan
noor barse nazar se noori tujh mein basi hai meri jaan
teri dhanak ki pyasi nazar hai
deewanagi ye tera asar hai
roohane rangon ka ye aanchal tera
sapno ki raaton ka ye baadal mera.. baadal mera.. baadal mera…

rare rare raaa durururu ra… rattatarara… rattatatrara… rirerarara..

dheere dheere sar chadha tera jaadu aage badha
dheere dheere sar chadha tera jaadu jaadu aage badha
hua khud se juda main phir bhi tujhpe fida main meri jaan
ishq le le tu le le le le, le le mera imtihaan
ishq le le tu le le le le, le le mera imtihaan
soone safar ki tu sohbat hai, bakhshi khuda ne ye milkiyat hai
aaja saja de gori aangan mera, jaise sajaya tune lamha mera.. lamha mera.. lamha mera..

Meanings:

bashinda: resident
payaam: message
dhanak: rainbow
roohane: soulful
sohbat: company
milkiyat: property, possession

    Janato Ke DAr Khule
    Kuch Bashende The Chale

    LE aaye Woh
    Nanhi Jaan
    Us Khuda Ka Ek Paiyaam

    Tab se tu hai jahan mein
    Banke Raunak Yahan Ki Meri Jaan

    Khwaishon se bhi aage jo khushi ka mile woh armaan

    Ra re ra raa aa
    Ti ri ri ra ra ra
    Di ri ri ra ra rap tap ra ra raaa
    rap tap ra ra raaa
    Ti ri ra ra ra

    Ra re ra raa aa
    Ra re ra raa aa
    Ra ra ra ra rap

    Cham cham jhilmilate
    Yeh sitaron wale haath
    Bheni bheeni khushboo
    Jaise teri meethi baat
    Ujjla ujjla sa yeh tan
    Jaisa mehka ho chandan
    Bahaon mein teri gujre
    Mera yeh sara jeevan

    Teri Adaa Mein MAsumiyat hai
    Phir bhi hai shokhi
    Rageeniyat hai

    Tarron se bhar doon mein
    Anchal tera
    Rab se bhi pyaara hai
    Chehra tera
    Chehra tera
    Chehra tera

    Ra re ra raa aa
    Ti ri ri ra ra ra
    Di ri ri ra ra rap tap ra ra raaa
    rap tap ra ra raaa

    Ra re ra raa aa
    Ra re ra raa aa
    Ra ra ra ra rap

    Phool Honthon pe khile
    Chand aankhon mein mile

    Phool Honthon pe khile
    Chand aankhon mein mile

    Bhikre moti zuban ki jaise kirane teri yeh muskaan
    Noor Barse nazar se Noori Tujhmein basi hai meri jaan
    Noor Barse nazar se Noori Tujhmein basi hai meri jaan

    Teri Jhalak Ki Pyaasi Nazar Hai
    Deewanagi yeh tera asar hai
    Roohane Rango ka yeh Aanchal Tera
    Sapno ki Raaton ka yeh Badal Mera
    Badal Mera
    Badal Mera

    Ra re ra raa aa

    Tera Jadoo
    Aage Badha
    Aaa Aa
    Dheere Dheere Sar Chadha
    Tera Jadoo Jaadoo
    Aage Badha

    Hua Khud Se Juda Phir Bhi Tujhpe Fida
    Mein MEri Jaan

    Ishq Le Le Tu Le Le ,Le Le tu mera Imtihaan
    Ishq Le Le Tu Le Le ,Le Le mera Imtihaan

    Sune Safar Ki Tu sohbat hai.
    Bakshi Khuda Ne
    Yeh Milkiyat Hai
    Aaja Saja De Gori Agan Mera
    Jaise Sajaya Tune Lamha Mera
    Lamha Mera
