bansuriya phir se bajaao, kanha
bansuriya phir se bajaao
ja ja na hamako sataao, radha
ja ja na hamako sataao

basi na baaje to jiyaa moraa dole
jiyaa moraa dole piyaa, boli ye bole
phir se vahi dhun sunaao, kanha
baansuriya
bansuriya phir se bajaao, kanha
bansuriya phir se bajaao

ja ri natakhat gavaalin ki chhori
mai na bajaunga ye baans ki pori
aise na mujhako rulaao, kanha
bansuriya
bansuriya phir se bajaao, kanha
baansuriyaa phir se bajaao

kaanhaa teri murali me raadhaa ki jaan hai
raadhaa tu hi to meri bansi ki taan hai
hotho se basi lagaao, kanha
baansuriya
baansuriya phir se bajaao, kanha
baansuriya phir se bajaao

Play your flute again, Krishna,
Play your flute again.
Go, don’t torment me, Radha,
Go, don’t torment me.

If the flute doesn’t sing, my heart trembles,
My heart trembles, beloved, it cries, it tells.
Play that same tune again, Krishna,
Your flute.
Play your flute again, Krishna,
Play your flute again.

I am that mischievous cowherd girl,
I won't play that bamboo flute.
Don’t make me weep so, Krishna,
Your flute.
Play your flute again, Krishna,
Play your flute again.

Krishna, in your flute lies Radha's life,
Radha, you are the song of my flute.
Touch the flute to your lips, Krishna,
Your flute.
Play your flute again, Krishna,
Play your flute again.
