ek dharti ka rajkumar dekho ji ho ke hawa pe swar
chala re chala gagan ke paar apni basti chodd desh me
ek naya sansar
chala re chala gagan ke paar ek dharti ka rajkumar
dekho ji ho ke hawa pe swar chala re chala gagan ke paar

indar lok ki ser ko nikla ek nanha sa raja
aaj khushi me khadi bichaye dur se bajta baja
saral saral udd rahi chunariya kya sundar rut paar
chala re chala gagan ke paar ek dharti ka rajkumar
dekho ji ho ke hawa pe swar chala re chala gagan ke paar

pawan buharega iska angana megh barega pani
roj rat kaha karegi pariya ise kahani
chanda suraj honge iske chanda suraj honge iske
mahal ke pehredar chala re chala gagan ke paar
ek dharti ka rajkumar dekho ji ho ke hawa pe swar
chala re chala gagan ke paar

Behold, a prince of earthly clay,
Ascends on air, begins his sway.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue,
Leaving his home, his world anew,
To seek a realm, a world unknown,
Where seeds of wonder have been sown.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue,
A prince of earth, his dream in view.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue.

To Indra's heavens, he takes flight,
A tiny king, in pure delight.
Joy unfolds, a path laid bare,
Distant music fills the air.
Gowns of silk, in gentle streams,
Through beauty's light, his spirit gleams.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue,
A prince of earth, his dream in view.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue.

The wind will sweep his sacred space,
The clouds will fill it with embrace.
Each night the fairies softly sing,
Of tales and dreams, their offerings bring.
The moon and sun, a watchful pair,
Stand guard before his palace there.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue,
A prince of earth, his dream in view.
He journeys forth, beyond the blue.
