jal tu jalal tu aayi bala ko tal tu
jal tu jalal tu aayi bala ko tal tu
hum tere chele hai hum tere chele hai
fase akele hai haye fase akele hai

nanhi si jan ko kya kya jhamele hai
kya kya jhamele hai
hamko nikal tu jal tu jalal tu
jal tu jalal tu aayi bala ko tal tu
hum tere chele hai hum tere chele hai
fase akele hai

kahu hath jod ke tale ko tod ke
sare kam chhod ke hum ko nikal tu
hum ko nikal tu
jal tu jalal tu aayi bala ko tal tu
hum tere chele hai hum tere chele hai
fase akele hai

baksh de kasur mere aaya hu huzur tere
bhet chadane ko kuch pas nahi mere
le ye rumal tu jal tu jalal tu
jal tu jalal tu aayi bala ko tal tu
hum tere chele hai hum tere chele hai
fase akele hai

You, the water, You the glory, ward off the approaching storm,
You, the water, You the glory, ward off the approaching storm.
We are Your disciples, we are Your disciples,
Alone we are trapped, alas, alone we are trapped.

This fragile life, what woes it knows,
What woes it knows.
Deliver us, You, the water, You the glory,
You, the water, You the glory, ward off the approaching storm.
We are Your disciples, we are Your disciples,
Alone we are trapped.

With folded hands, breaking the locks,
Leaving all tasks behind, deliver us,
Deliver us.
You, the water, You the glory, ward off the approaching storm.
We are Your disciples, we are Your disciples,
Alone we are trapped.

Forgive my faults, I come to Your presence,
With nothing to offer, no gifts to bear.
Take this handkerchief, You, the water, You the glory,
You, the water, You the glory, ward off the approaching storm.
We are Your disciples, we are Your disciples,
Alone we are trapped.
