आँखें जो खुली तो सब कुछ था नया
पल भर तेरे सपनों में खो गई
दिन के उजाले में ही रात हो गई
काली-काली घटा आके कब छा गई
आयी बरसात तेरी याद आ गई
भीगे तनहाई मुझे तड़पा गई
छम-छम बरसे घटा
आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे
छम-छम बरसे घटा
घुँघरू बजाती हैं हवा
आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे
सरगम बूंदों की कुछ ऐसी धुन गाए
एक नग़मा लहराए राहों में
मौसम गीतों का मेरे मन को तब भाए
जब सजना तू आए बाँहों में
आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे रे
छम-छम बरसे घटा हा हा हा
घुँघरू बजाती हैं हवा
रिमझिम बरखा में आ मिल के हम भीगे (आ)
सपनों में खो जाए सावन में (आ)
पागल पंछी के पंखों के साए में
हम बादल तक जाए सावन में
आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे हे
छम-छम बरसे घटा हा हा हा
घुँघरू बजाती हैं हवा
आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे हे
छम-छम बरसे घटा हा हा हा
घुँघरू बजाती हैं हवा हा हा हा
छम-छम बरसे घटा हा हा हा

The lyrics to Asha Bhosle's song "Cham Cham Barse" describe the experience of being caught in a sudden rainstorm. The wind carries the raindrops into the singer's open eyes, and for a moment, everything is seen through new eyes. As the rain falls, the singer gets lost in their dreams, and the day turns into night. The song also describes the atmosphere and mood of the rainy season, with black clouds gathering in the sky and the sound of the wind playing the ghungroo (ankle bells).
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "cham cham barse ghat" meaning the cloud is raining, and it encourages the beloved to come and join the singer under the rain. The lyrics express the joy of being in the rain, feeling it on the skin, and getting lost in the moment with one's beloved. The beauty and power of nature are highlighted, with the rain being portrayed as a force that can both bring people together and make them feel alone and longing for each other.

पलकों को चूम गई पुरवा हवा
The breeze kissed my eyelids
आँखें जो खुली तो सब कुछ था नया
Opening my eyes was a new experience
पल भर तेरे सपनों में खो गई
I lost myself in your dreams for just a moment
दिन के उजाले में ही रात हो गई
Day turned into night in the brightness of your presence
काली-काली घटा आके कब छा गई
The dark clouds came and covered the sky
आयी बरसात तेरी याद आ गई
Your memories flooded back like the pouring rain
भीगे तनहाई मुझे तड़पा गई
I was left alone to suffer in the wet solitude
छम-छम बरसे घटा
The clouds gently pour down rain
घुँघरू बजाती हैं हवा
The wind plays the bells
आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे आजा रे
Come, come, come, come
सरगम बूंदों की कुछ ऐसी धुन गाए
Sang a melody of raindrops
एक नग़मा लहराए राहों में
A song echoes through the streets
मौसम गीतों का मेरे मन को तब भाए
The songs of the season touched my heart
जब सजना तू आए बाँहों में
When my love comes into my arms
रिमझिम बरखा में आ मिल के हम भीगे (आ)
Let's meet in the drizzling rain and get wet
सपनों में खो जाए सावन में (आ)
Let's get lost in our dreams in the rainy season
पागल पंछी के पंखों के साए में
Under the spell of a crazy bird's wings
हम बादल तक जाए सावन में
Let's go up to the clouds in the rainy season
ला ला ला ला ला ला ला ला ला
La la la la la la la la
