chali sajan ghar jaye chali
aaj dulhaniya ke sahare
kesri bindiya kajar dare
aaj dulhaniya ke sahare
kesri bindiya kajar dare
kar solah singar kar solah singar
naveli aankho bhed chupaye
aankho bhed chupaye
chali sajan ghar jaye

roti chodi roti chodi sakhi saheli
jinke sang thi haske kheli
jinke sang thi haske kheli
aaj dulhaniya chali
aaj dulhaniya chali akeli
pee sneh lagaye pee sneh lagaye
chali sajan ghar jaye

is ghar se ab mukhda moda
is ghar se ab mukhda moda
us ghar se ab nata joda
tod ke bandhan chhod ke maya
tod ke bandhan chhod ke maya
duniya ko bisraye duniya ko bisraye
chali sajan ghar jaye

She journeys home, she goes,
carried by the bride's own guise.
Vermillion dot, kohl-lined eyes,
carried by the bride's own guise.
Vermillion dot, kohl-lined eyes,
Adorned, sixteenfold, adorned.
In maiden eyes, secrets hide,
secrets hide,
she journeys home.

Weeping, she leaves behind her friends,
with whom laughter knew no end,
with whom laughter knew no end.
The bride departs today,
the bride departs, alone.
Bound by love, bound by love,
she journeys home.

From this home, she turns away,
from this home, she turns away,
to that home, a bond to lay.
Breaking ties, relinquishing all,
breaking ties, relinquishing all,
forgetting the world, forgetting the world,
she journeys home.
