hare raam, raam raam, raadhe shyaam, raadhe shyaam
hare raam, raam raam, raadhe shyaam, raadhe shyaam
tu hi ram tu hi shyaam raadhe shyaam, raadhe shyaam
hare raam, raam raam, raadhe shyaam, raadhe shyaam

dhaani chunariya dhire dhire sar se sarakti jaye re
bindiya karti chhedkhani chudi meri sharmaaye re
dhaani chunariya dhire dhire sar se sarakti jaaye re
bindiya karti chhedkhani chudi meri sharmaaye re
chham chhama ke paayal bulaaye
Ghunghru se bhi aawaaz aaye
oh radha kahe radha, nibha de tera vaada
bichha ke naina baithi teri raaho me
radha kahe radha, nibha de tera vaada
bichha ke naina baithi teri raahon me, aaja aaja

aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
o radha ka kaanha, kaanha ki radha
sang jo nahi toh pyaar hai aadha
radha ka kaanha, kaanha ki radha
sang jo nahi toh pyaar hai aadha
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
Mere shyaam raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam mere shyaam
Mere shyaam raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam mere shyaam

kehti paavan rut sinduri, tera mera milan jaruri
tut na jaaye sapne mere, reh na jaaye aas adhuri
rangon bhari hai mere mann ki rangoli
maine sajaali armaano ki doli
oh radha kahe radha, nibha de tera vaada
bichha ke naina baithi teri raaho me
radha kahe radha, nibha de tera vaada
bichha ke naina baithi teri raahon me, aaja aaja
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
Mere shyaam raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam mere shyaam
Mere shyaam raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam mere shyaam

raam raam, raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam raadhe shyaam tu hi raam, tu hi shyaam
raam raam, raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam, raadhe shyaam
raadhe shyaam raadhe shyaam tu hi raam, tu hi shyaam
oh aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
aaja pardesi ab ghar mere aaja
panghat pe naache raadha
aaja kanhaiya

Hail to Rama, Rama, Rama, Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam,
You are Rama, You are Shyam, Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam,
Hail to Rama, Rama, Rama, Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam,

The emerald veil, it slips so slow, from my head,
The bindi teases, my bangles blush instead,
The emerald veil, it slips so slow, from my head,
The bindi teases, my bangles blush instead,
The anklets sing, a rhythmic call,
From the bells, the echoes fall,
Oh Radha cries, Radha, keep your vow,
Laying out my eyes on the path you’ll know,
Radha cries, Radha, keep your vow,
Laying out my eyes on the path you’ll know, come, come!

Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Oh Radha’s Kanha, Kanha’s Radha,
Without union, love is half-made,
Radha’s Kanha, Kanha’s Radha,
Without union, love is half-made,
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
My Shyam, Radha Shyam,
Radha Shyam, my Shyam.

The sacred season whispers, crimson-bright, our meeting is true,
Lest my dreams should shatter, and hope be askew,
My mind, a canvas, splashed with hues so grand,
I've adorned the palanquin of my heart's command,
Oh Radha cries, Radha, keep your vow,
Laying out my eyes on the path you’ll know,
Radha cries, Radha, keep your vow,
Laying out my eyes on the path you’ll know, come, come!
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
My Shyam, Radha Shyam,
Radha Shyam, my Shyam.

Rama, Rama, Radha Shyam,
Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam,
Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam, You are Rama, You are Shyam,
Rama, Rama, Radha Shyam,
Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam,
Radha Shyam, Radha Shyam, You are Rama, You are Shyam,
Oh, come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Come, stranger, now, to my home, come,
Radha dances at the village drum,
Come, Kanhaiya!
