Krishna, play your flute, Krishna, play your flute,
Deceiver, oh deceiver, oh deceiver!
Krishna, play your flute, Kanhaiya, play your flute,
Radha dances, maddened, swaying, swaying.
Krishna, play your flute, Kanhaiya, play your flute,
Radha dances, maddened, swaying, swaying.

Hearing the sweet tune of your flute, I run, I run to you,
Hearing the sweet tune of your flute, I run, I run to you,
My body trembles, my mind is lost, I become oblivious,
Kajal forgotten, flowers undone, lost in such a trance,
Krishna, play your flute, Kanhaiya, play your flute,
Radha dances, maddened, swaying, swaying.

Seven notes have woven a net, my soul is ensnared,
Seven notes have woven a net, my soul is ensnared,
My heart may break, yet the melody remains sweet,
My anklets wounded, yet they still keep time,
Krishna, play your flute, Kanhaiya, play your flute,
Radha dances, maddened, swaying, swaying.

I surrender, I yield, I am defeated, now do not torment me,
I surrender, I yield, I am defeated, now do not torment me,
Having captured my heart, do not make it suffer,
Let the flute play, let the maiden adorn, let the lover's dance begin,
Krishna, play your flute, Kanhaiya, play your flute,
Radha dances, maddened, swaying, swaying.

Krishna, play your flute, Kanhaiya, play your flute,
Radha dances, maddened, swaying, swaying.
Swaying, swaying, dancing, swaying, swaying,
Swaying, swaying, dancing, swaying, swaying.
