kanha na chedo na chedo bansuri re
mai to aa gayi
kanha na chedo na chedo bansuri re
mai to aa gayi tu hai piya mere liye
mai to jaha chhod ke aa gayi
kanha na chedo na chedo bansuri re
mai to aa gayi

naina hai manzar tu jis ke andar
mai tori nadiya tu hai samundar
aa to gayi chha to gayi jaise badaliya
baje chhan chhan payal ki jhanjhari rey
mai to aa gayi
kanha na chedo na chedo bansuri re
mai to aa gayi re mai to aa gayi

natkhat kanhayia bansi bajayia
mai teri dasi o re rang rasiya
mai teri dasi o re rang rasiya
tu hai jaha mai hu vaha tori gujaria
aayi jamuna ke tat par pyasi rey
radha bawari
kanha na chedo na chedo bansuri re
mai to aa gayi tu hai piya mere liye
mai to jaha chhoad ke aa gayi
kanha na chedo na chedo bansuri re
mai to aa gayi re mai to aa gayi

Do not play, do not play the flute, O Kanha,
I have come.
Do not play, do not play the flute, O Kanha,
I have come, you are my beloved.
I have left the world and come.
Do not play, do not play the flute, O Kanha,
I have come.

My eyes are the landscape, and you, within,
I am your river, you are the ocean.
I have come, I have enfolded like the clouds,
The anklets' bells are chiming, chiming,
I have come.
Do not play, do not play the flute, O Kanha,
I have come, I have come.

Mischievous Kanha, flute player,
I am your servant, O you, the color of love,
I am your servant, O you, the color of love,
You are where I am, your milkmaid am I.
I came to the Yamuna's shore, thirsty,
Radha, mad with love.
Do not play, do not play the flute, O Kanha,
I have come, you are my beloved.
I have left the world and come.
Do not play, do not play the flute, O Kanha,
I have come, I have come.
