he gidhari he girdhari
krishan murari krishan murari
he gidhari mere krishan murari
mohe aiso de vardan
meri dirishti me sukh aur dukh ho dono ek saman
girdhari mohe aiso de vardan
girdhari mohe aiso de vardan
murari mohe aiso de vardan

mere man ko moh na le kahi
jhuthi jag ki maya jhuthi jag ki maya
do roti do kapda dena
sar pe chat ki chaya sar pe chat ki chaya
itna bhi na dena mujhko itna bhi na dena mujhko
ho jaye abhiman girdhari mohe aiso de vardan
girdhari mohe aiso de vardan
murari mohe aiso de vardan

dol rahi hai bhav sagar me
meri jivan naiya meri jivan naiya
paar lagana apne hatho
van ke aaj khivaiya van ke aaj khivaiya
naam na chute mukh se tera naam na chute mukh se tera
jab lage ghat me pran girdhari mohe aiso de vardan
girdhari mohe aiso de vardan murari mohe aiso de vardan

Oh, Girdhari, Oh, Girdhari,
Krishna Murari, Krishna Murari,
Oh, Girdhari, my Krishna Murari,
Grant me such a boon.

That in my sight, joy and sorrow,
May both appear the same.
Girdhari, grant me such a boon,
Girdhari, grant me such a boon,
Murari, grant me such a boon.

May the false illusions of this world,
Never enthrall my mind,
Give me but two loaves, two garments,
And the shelter of a roof.
And grant me not so much,
That pride should take its hold.
Girdhari, grant me such a boon,
Girdhari, grant me such a boon,
Murari, grant me such a boon.

My life's vessel is adrift,
Upon the ocean of existence,
Steer it across with your own hands,
O Helmsman of the forest now.
May your name never leave my lips,
When breath departs from the body.
Girdhari, grant me such a boon,
Girdhari, grant me such a boon,
Murari, grant me such a boon.
