Mother, mother, mother,
Little Kanha calls, "Mother, mother!"
Walking, walking, little feet ache,
Now, in your lap, mother, take.

Blessed Yasoda, Hari in her arms, lifted.
Yasoda, Hari in her arms, lifted.
Ah, this image of love to behold,
This image of love to behold,
Forever enchants the eye,
Enchants the eye,
Enchants the eye,
Enchants the eye.
Yasoda, Hari in her arms, lifted.
Yasoda, Hari in her arms, lifted.

Lullabies she sings through the night,
Kisses him awake at dawn, Yasoda.
Kisses him awake at dawn,
Says, "Awake, awake!"
Says, "Awake, awake, awake, Kanha, awake!"
"Oh Gopala, awake, awake, awake!"
In the morning light, Nanda's son,
Her moon-like face, she bathes.
See, she bathes her moon-like face.
In the water, the sun smiles,
In the water, the sun smiles,
As the blue lotus blooms.
As the blue lotus blooms.
The mischievous Hari feels no cold,
The mischievous Hari feels no cold,
Clicks his teeth in delight.
Hari clicks his teeth in delight.
Yasoda, Hari in her arms, lifted.
Yasoda, Hari in her arms, lifted.
