ek tarf mera ghar hai aur ek taraf sasural hai
lut gaya main duniyan valo mera bura haal hai
joru ne nikala hai diwala mere ghar ka
diwala mere ghar ka diwala mere ghar ka
suno bhai ban gaya hai malik mera sala mere ghar ka
ban gaya hai malik mera sala mere ghar ka
o joru ne nikala hai diwala mere ghar ka ghar ka mere ghar ka
ho joru ne nikala hai diwala mere ghar ka ghar ka mere ghar ka
ho joru ne aisi takdir jagi do gharo ke mel se
jale unki lalten vo bhi mere tel se
handiya mein bhi padata hai masala mere ghar ka
handiya mein bhi padata hai masala mere ghar ka
ban gaya hai malik mera sala mere ghar ka
ban gaya hai malik mera sala mere ghar ka

laai thi dahej mein tu puri bara thaliyan
tu puri bara thaliyan
le gai uthake sabaki sab hai meri saliyan
de do unko jake chabi tala mere ghar ka
ban gaya hai malik mera sala mere ghar ka
ban gaya hai malik mera sala mere ghar ka
ae sala sala sala kya kahata hai

nikar baai ka photo mere ghar se utha ke le gaya
tune bhi to otha hai dushala mere ghar ka
are tune bhi to otha hai dushala mere ghar ka
khabardar mister jo tune meri bahan ko danta
khabardar mister jo tune meri bahan ko danta
pith pe mukka marunga main munh pe dunga chata

hosh mein aao duniyan ko tamasha kyun dikhate ho
apne ghar ka rona ro ke duniyan ko hansate ho
he jaao bhi jaao tu kya dekhate bin baat pe
he jaao bhi jaao tu kya dekhate bin baat pe
miya bibi aapas mein to lad rahe pyar se
miya bibi aapas mein to lad rahe pyar se
bandar ka tamasha nahi bhalu ka tamasha nahi
tum kahe ko dekhte ghotala mere ghar ka
are tum kahe ko dekhte ghotala mere ghar ka
dekho ji ab na gana joru ne nikala hai diwala
mere ghar ka ghar ka mere ghar ka

On one side, my home, on the other, her kin’s keep,
World, I am plundered, my fate does weep.
My wife has bankrupted my dwelling's core,
My home's ruin, forevermore.
Hear ye, brothers, my brother-in-law now rules my door,
He now commands my home's floor.
Oh, my wife, she's wrought the ruin of my home,
My home, my home, where I used to roam.
Oh, my wife, a fate she spun, from two homes entwined,
May their lanterns dim, fueled by the oil of my mind.
Even the pot of my home, is seasoned by his hand,
Even the pot of my home, he commands.
My brother-in-law, my master now, of my home,
He now commands my home's dome.

She brought twelve platters, a dowry’s guise,
Twelve platters bright before my eyes.
But she, she took it all, all my sisters-in-law,
Go, give them the key to my home's draw.
My brother-in-law, my master now, of my home,
He now commands my home's dome.
My brother-in-law, my master now, of my home,
He now commands my home's dome.
Hey, brother-in-law, what do you say?
What did he take away?
He stole my wife's photo, carried it away,
You too, took my shawl astray.
Beware, sir, if you scold my sister's soul,
Beware, sir, if you scold my sister's soul.
I'll strike your back and your face I'll maul,
I'll strike your back and your face I'll maul.
If you wish to fight, then so it be,
So it be, so it be, so it be.
He's slain! He's slain! He's slain!
Save my brother, relieve his pain!
He's slain! He's slain! He's slain!
Save my brother, relieve his pain!

Children, elders, youth, come aid my plea,
Children, elders, youth, come aid my plea.
He's slain! He's slain! He's slain!
Save my brother, relieve his pain!
Awake, why this spectacle do you parade?
Your home's woes you weep, the world is swayed.
Go now, brother, go, why stare at this strife?
Go now, brother, go, why stare at this strife?
Husband and wife, in love they contend,
Husband and wife, in love they contend.
No monkey show, no bear's display,
Why watch the turmoil of my home's sway?
Why watch the turmoil of my home's sway?
Look, no longer sing of ruin's call,
My wife has brought ruin on my all.
My home, my home, now at the wall.
