Chala kI saba bAta torI
mAnUM nAhI torI ||
Devnagri
छांड मोरी बालम बैया मरोरी
बैंया मरोरी जोराजोरी ।
चतुराई करत श्याम

मानूं नाही तोरी ॥
Meaning
Oh dear, leave my hand - you twisted it in mischief. You (Shyam, i.e. Krishna) are nasty and I (Chatur Baam means intelligent lady) know all your tricks (Chal ki Sab Baat). I will not entertain your mischiefs.
Notes
This is a 'Joda Bandish' (a Bandish with similar melodic structure) of another Bandish-s like 'Apane Garaj Pakar Lini Baiya' or 'Jhagara Karata'. This is not a Chhota Khayal, but it is Bandish Ki Thumri and hence, it has some notes and phrases otherwise not used in standard form of Bageshree.
