Chalu Chalu Chalu Kaki Lyrics – A Classic Maithili Parichhan Vivah Song
An evergreen satirical folk song by Sudarshan Chaudhary & Maithili Putra Pradeep.
Mithila's wedding ceremonies are a vibrant tapestry of emotions, devotion, and distinct humor. While we often celebrate the somber tones of Bidai in songs like Dulhin Dhire Dhire Chalyo, the Parichhan (groom's welcome) ceremony demands a different energy.
"Chalu Chalu Chalu Kaki" is a masterpiece of the Batgammati or Dahkan genre, where the groom and his entourage are playfully teased. Sung by the legendary Sudarshan Chaudhary and penned by Maithili Putra Pradeep, this song defines the chaotic humor essential to Maithil Vivah traditions.

Chalu Chalu Chalu Kaki Lyrics (Maithili)
चलु चलु बहिना हकार पूरै ले,
टुन्नी दाइक बर एलय टेमी दागैले।
लटका चड़ा छै नौ कुरा,
पाकल केरा सात चंगेरा,
छाल्ही बला दही तँ करेजा कटैए।
टुन्नी दाइक बर एलय टेमी दागैले।
माटीक सांप बनल छै करिया,
मैनाक पात पीठारक थरिया,
बीच मे सिन्दूरक ठोप सोभैए।
टुन्नी दाइक बर एलय टेमी दागैले।
कानियाऺ माइ के घघना लटकल,
पातिलक चाउर एलइ बिनु फटकल,
सासुक कोढ़ बड़ कठोर छलैए।
टुन्नी दाइक बर एलय टेमी दागैले।
भरी पनपथिया जाहि - जूही,
कथा कहथि से होइ छथि कुही,
बोध मे मटकुरी बड़ छोट एलैए।
टुन्नी दाइक बर एलय टेमी दागैले।
उथल पुथल मे छथि बाधकरी,
दीपक टेमी सटेलन्हि धरी,
टुन्नी दाइ के आंखि सऺ नीर झड़ैए।
टुन्नी दाइक बर एलय टेमी दागैले।
Chalu Chalu Chalu Kaki Lyrics (Hinglish)
Chalu chalu bahina hakar purai le,
Tunni daik bar aelay temi dagaile.
Latka chada chhai nau kura,
Pakal kera saat changera,
Chhalhi bala dahi ta kareja kataiye.
Tunni daik bar aelay temi dagaile.
Maatik saanp banal chhai kariya,
Mainak paat pitharak thariya,
Beech me sindurak thop sobhaiye.
Tunni daik bar aelay temi dagaile.
Kaniya mai ke ghaghna latkal,
Paatilak chaur aelai binu phatkal,
Saasuk kodh bad kathor chhalaiye.
Tunni daik bar aelay temi dagaile.
Bhari panpathiya jahi - juhi,
Katha kahathi se hoi chhathi kuhi,
Bodh me matkuri bad chhot aelaiye.
Tunni daik bar aelay temi dagaile.
Uthal puthal me chhathi badhakari,
Deepak temi satelanhi dhari,
Tunni dai ke aankhi sa neer jharaiye.
Tunni daik bar aelay temi dagaile.
Editor's Insight: The Satire of Class & Tradition
This song is not merely a description of a ritual; it is a clever commentary on social expectations. The phrase "Temi Dagaile" literally means "branding with a hot wick." Satirically, it suggests the groom is being "marked" or tested by the women of the bride's side.
The lyrics contrast the groom's demand for "Chhalhi bala dahi" (rich curd) with the chaotic preparations of the bride's household ("Patilak chaur aelai binu phatkal"). This highlights the subtle tension and humor found in rural weddings, a theme crucial to preserving the future of Maithili Sahitya.
Just as Nagaarjun's poems often challenged social norms, Maithili Putra Pradeep uses humor here to expose the "sweet cruelty" of tradition.
