ek bholi bhaali gaanv ki rani
jiski kahani, aao sunaye, suno
ek bholi bhaali gaanv ki rani
jiski kahani, aao sunaye, suno

pake dhaan ka khet khada
bal kha kha ke lahraye
odh chunariya hariyaali ki
dharti hai muskaaye
waha bani ek sundar kutiya
mahalo ko sharmaye
usme rahti ek matawali, sundar rani
uski kahani, aayo sunaye, suno

kutiya hi sabkuch hai uski
kutiya ki sabkuch hai wo
aate jaate raahi paate
aage badhne ki himmat ko
gaanv ki rani, piya ke path mein
baith bichhaye aankhon ko
saanjh deep ne mila diye
aur dekh raha is madhur milan ko
aisi gaanv ki rani
jiski kahani, aao sunaye, suno

nind pari ke jaadu ne jab
luta diye sapne anmol
lagi lutne saari duniya
apni man masti mein dol
nind pari ke jaadu ne jab
luta diye sapne anmol
lagi lutne saari duniya
apni man masti mein dol
par haye vidhaata rup badal kar
gaanv ke aangan aayi
bhole bhaale mukhde dekhe
apne aap se wo sharmayi
par haye vidhaata rup badal kar
gaanv ke aangan aayi
bhole bhaale mukhde dekhe
apne aap se wo sharmayi
jo kuch karna tha, karna
aur chilla uthi jaag re duniya
kaal pad gaya kaal, kaal pad gaya kaal
kaal pad gaya kaal

daakan, jogan aayi pishachan
chhayi ghataye kaali kaali re
maut ke saaz pe pralay raagini
baaj rahi matawali re
mila khak mein gaanv salona
gham ne manayi diwaali re
shanti gayi ,sukh chain gaya
sone se bhare, wo khet gaya
daakan, jogan aayi pishachan
chhayi ghataye kaali kaali re

kahan gayi, wo saanjh suhaani
kahan panchhiyo ka gaana
kahan gaya, wo madhur milan
aur kahan khushi se bhara zamana

kyun uge ho ab tum chaand salone
kya lene ab aaye sitaare
chale gaye wo chhod ke duniya
jinko the tum bade hi pyaare

har gaanv ki tuti diware
kahti hain aaj kahani
meri god mein bani samadhi
kitni kutiya, kitni rani

A village queen, so gentle and fair,
A story to tell, if you'll just lend an ear.
Golden fields of ripened rice sway,
Green veils the earth in a joyful display.
A humble hut, more beautiful than any palace,
Where she resides, a queen of joyous malice.
Her story, let us now impart, and hear.

The hut, her all, she is the hut's heart,
Strangers find courage, a brand new start.
Awaiting her love, she watches the road,
As twilight lamps meet, a sweet episode.
A village queen, her story we share.

When dream fairies steal precious dreams,
The world starts to plunder, it madly teems.
The world starts to plunder, it madly teems.
But alas, destiny, changing its guise,
Appears in the village, before her eyes.
Her innocent face, filled with deep shame,
But she must act, and cries out the name:
Wake up, world, awake from your sleep!
The age of doom, the age of doom, it creeps!
The age of doom, the age of doom, it creeps!

Appears in the village, before her eyes.
Her innocent face, filled with deep shame,

Wake up, world, awake from your sleep!
The age of doom, the age of doom, it creeps!

Witches and demons, shadows descend,
Death's instruments play, the world will end.
In dust, the village, sorrow's embrace,
Peace has vanished, lost all trace.
Witches and demons, shadows descend,
Where is the evening, its glorious gleam?
Where birds once sang, and love did stream?
Where is the joy, and the bygone days?

Why do you rise now, moon so bright?
What need have you for stars tonight?
They've left the world, those you held dear,
Each village wall, a tale to hear.
In my lap, a tomb now lies,
How many huts, how many sighs?
