Lyrics and translation of O Ri Chiraiya

Lyrics:

O ri chiraiya, nanhi si chidiya
Angana mein phir aaja rey
Andhiyaara hai ghana
aur lahu se sana
kirnon ke tinke
Ambar se chunke
Angana mein phir aaja rey
Hamne tum pe hazaaro sitam hai kiye
Hamne tum pe jahan bhar ke zulm kiye
Hamne socha nahin, tu jo ud jayegi
Ye zameen tere bin suni rah jaayegi
Kiske dum pe sajega mera angana
O ri chiraiya, nanhi si chidiya
Angana mein phir aaja rey
Tere pankhon mein saare sitare jaddoon
teri chunar dhanak satrangi bunun
tere kajal mein main kaali raina bharoon
teri mehendi mein kachi dhoop maloon
Tere nainon sajaa doon naya sapna

 And a loose translation:

Hey O birdie, little bird
Comeback to my courtyard
The darkness is dense
and its soiled with blood
The straws of the sun's rays
gather them from the sky
and please come back to my courtyard
We have doled out a thousand atrocities on you
We have committed a world of crimes against you
We didn't think that once you fly away
this land would become so lonesome
Now who would bring cheer to my courtyard
Hey O birdie, my little bird
Comeback to my courtyard
I inlay the stars in your wings
weave a rainbow colored veil for you
Fill the dark night into your Kohl

mix the soft sunlight with your henna
let me fill a new dream in your eyes
