haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao
haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao
jhule me muskaye re chanda jaise laadle ho
haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao

nanhi nanhi chamke ankhiya sabke man ko bhaye re
sabke man ko bhaye re
gore gaal pe kaari bindiya najar na koi lagaye re
najar na koi lagaye re
mukh nihar kar laad pyar kar
mukh nihar kar laad pyar kar
maiya bali bali jaye re
jhule me muskaye
o jhule me muskaye re chanda jaise laadle ho
haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao
haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao

bano raja maharaja humko bhul na jana re
jab aaye sawan man bhawan
rakhiya bandhane aane re
rakhiya bandhane aane re
raaj dulare tumhe sulane
raaj dulare tumhe sulane
bahna lori gaaye re
jhule me muskaye
o jhule me muskaye re chanda jaise laadle ho
haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao
haule haule jhulaniya re jhulao

Gently, softly, swing the cradle,
Gently, softly, swing the cradle,
Smiling in the swing, a moon-child you are,
Gently, softly, swing the cradle.

Tiny eyes that sparkle, delighting every heart,
Delighting every heart,
A dark beauty mark on a pale cheek, warding off the harm,
Warding off the harm,
Gazing upon the face, showering love and affection,
Gazing upon the face, showering love and affection,
Mother’s heart melts with devotion,
Smiling in the swing,
Oh, smiling in the swing, a moon-child you are,
Gently, softly, swing the cradle,
Gently, softly, swing the cradle.

Become a king, a great emperor, do not forget us,
When the monsoon arrives, celebrate in our home,
Come to tie the rakhis,
Come to tie the rakhis,
Spoiling you with love, lulling you to sleep,
Spoiling you with love, lulling you to sleep,
Sister sings you a lullaby,
Smiling in the swing,
Oh, smiling in the swing, a moon-child you are,
Gently, softly, swing the cradle,
Gently, softly, swing the cradle.
