haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan
haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan
haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan
khaye vo kaise khilaye vo kaise
khaye vo kaise khilaye vo kaise
ghar me nahi paan dan
ghar me nahi paan dan
haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan
haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan

mujhe dete hai khane na khate hai khud
mujhe dete hai khane na khate hai khud
badi aaye dikhaate hai shaan
janu bhi na ab tak nadan
mare gusse se laal makan
haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan
haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan
ke haye nahi khate hai bhaiya mere paan

My brother, he will not taste the betel leaf, no,
My brother, he will not taste the betel leaf.
How could he partake, how could he offer,
When the vessel of desire within is bare?
When the vessel of desire within is bare.

He offers me sustenance, yet starves himself,
A show of great pride he puts on.
I, still naive, do not understand.
His anger paints the house crimson,
My brother, he will not taste the betel leaf, no,
My brother, he will not taste the betel leaf.
For my brother, he will not taste the betel leaf.
