mai to bhul chali babul ka des
piya ka ghar pyara lage
koi maike ko de do sades
jake maike ko de do sades
piya ka ghar pyara lage

nanadi me dekhi hai bahana ki surat
nanadi me dekhi hai bahana ki surat
sasu ji meri hai mamata ki murat
sasu ji meri hai mamata ki murat
pita jaisa
pita jaisa sasur ji ka bhes, piya ka ghar pyara lage
mai to bhul chali babul ka des
piya ka ghar pyara lage
koi maike ko de do sades
piya ka ghar pyara lage

chanda bhi pyara hai suraj bhi pyara
chanda bhi pyara hai suraj bhi pyara
par sabase pyara hai sajana hamara
par sabase pyara hai sajana hamara
ankhe samajhe
ankhe samajhe jiya ka sades, piya ka ghar pyara lage
mai to bhul chali babul ka des
piya ka ghar pyara lage
koi maike ko de do sades
piya ka ghar pyara lage

baitha rahe saiya naino ko jode
baitha rahe saiya naino ko jode
ik pal vo mujhako akela na chhod e
ik pal vo mujhako akela na chhod e
nahi koi
nahi koi ko jiya klesh, piya ka ghar pyara lage
mai to bhul chali babul ka des
piya ka ghar pyara lage
koi maike ko de do sades
piya ka ghar pyara lage

I have forgotten my father's land,
My beloved's home, a cherished strand.
Send a message to my mother's keep,
Tell them my heart has fallen deep,
My beloved's home, a cherished strand.

In my sister, I see my sister's face,
In my mother-in-law, a mother's grace.
My father-in-law, a father's guise,
My beloved's home, before my eyes,
I have forgotten my father's land,
My beloved's home, a cherished strand.

The moon is lovely, the sun's a gleam,
But dearest of all is my lover's dream.
My eyes they grasp the heart's decree,
My beloved's home, so dear to me,
I have forgotten my father's land,
My beloved's home, a cherished strand.

My love sits near, our eyes entwined,
Leaving me never, my soul to bind.
Not a moment of sorrow or pain,
My beloved's home, where joys remain,
I have forgotten my father's land,
My beloved's home, a cherished strand.
