is jadu ke dande me
duniya bhar ka husn bhara
purab pachhim utar se dakshin tak ki apsara
jo chahoge milegi
maang ke dekho yaar jara

o mainu punjab di jatni chah diye
ohde naal hol giya taga gol godiya
jeda aji leja ke deve kanchi di chudiya
ohde naal hol giya taga gol godiya
jeda aji leja ke deve kanchi di chudiya
oye oye oye oye oye oye

Within this wand of mystic grace,
Lies beauty, a world embraced.
From East to West, from North to South,
Fair maidens dance upon its mouth.
Ask, dear friend, and you shall see,
All desires set eternally free.

Oh, I desire a Punjabi maiden, true,
With her I'd weave a circle, gold and new.
Who'll bring her bangles, a gift so bright?
With her I'd weave, in pure delight.
Who'll bring her bangles, a gift so bright?
With her I'd weave, in pure delight.
