Nishithe ki koye gelo mone    ki jaani ki jaani.
Se ki ghum se ki jaagorane,   ki jaani ki jaani.
Naana kaaje naana mate    phiri ghare, phiri pathe -
Se katha ki agochare baaje khane khane. Ki jaani, ki jaani.
Se katha ki akaarone byathichhe hriday,   eki bhay, eki joy.
Se katha ki kaane kaane baare baare koy    'aar noy' 'aar noy'.
Se katha ki naana sure    bale more 'chalo dure' -
Se ki baaje buke mamo, baaje ki gogane. Ki jaani, ki jaani.
