Oh, I know not, Ram, where my bindi's gone,
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's flown.
Round and precious, where did it roam?
Wearing my mark, to the bed I went,
Fell on the bed, and with my love was spent.
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's gone,
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's flown.

Wearing my mark, to the gardens I went,
To the gardens I went, where blossoms were sent.
Fell in the gardens, oh, fell in the trees,
Clung to the gardener, carried by breeze.
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's gone,
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's flown.

Wearing my mark, to the fields I did stray,
To the fields I did go, where the harvests hold sway.
Fell in the fields, oh, fell in the grain,
Clung to the scribe, in sun and in rain.
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's gone,
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's flown.

Wearing my mark, to the station I went,
To file a report, my sorrow to vent.
Fell at the station, oh, fell on the floor,
Clung to the officer, and asked for more.
I know not, Ram, I know not, Ram, where my bindi's gone,
I know not, Ram, where my bindi's flown.
