ja ja re sugna ja re kahi de sajanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye
bhayili avara sajani puchala pavanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye

diya roj haar jala sang sang jali ke
diya roj haar jala sang sang jali ke
chandva bhi thaki jala mora sang chali ke
tadapile rat din kauna re jamanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye
ja ja re sugna ja re kahi de sajanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye

birha ke dagva se bhar gayil chhatiya
birha ke dagva se bhar gayil chhatiya
lal se piyar bhayil hamri suratiya
tohri suratiya nahi niksela manva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye
bhayili avara sajani puchala pavanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye

matiya milal jala sona ke javaniya
matiya milal jala sona ke javaniya
ansuva me dub gayil sari jindganiya
bhuyiya girela kajra bahi ke nayanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye
ja ja re sugna ja re kahi de sajanva se
laagi nahi chhute rama chahe jiya jaye

Go, oh my love, go, tell my beloved,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.
Lost I wander, ask the whispering wind,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.

Each day the lamp surrenders, burning bright beside me,
Each day the lamp surrenders, burning bright beside me,
The moon itself is weary, walking through the night with me.
Tormented day and night, by which dark fate,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.
Go, oh my love, go, tell my beloved,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.

The fire of separation fills my breast,
The fire of separation fills my breast,
My face once fair, now stained with fading hues.
Your image never leaves my aching heart,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.
Lost I wander, ask the whispering wind,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.

Dust to dust, the golden youth descends,
Dust to dust, the golden youth descends,
In tears, my whole life is submerged.
Kohl streams down, from eyes that fall to earth,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.
Go, oh my love, go, tell my beloved,
This fire burns, it will not cease though life depart.
