naihar ke geet mai gaau naihar ke geet mai gaau
babul ka baag sajaau re naihar ke geet mai gaau re
naihar ke geet mai gaau babul ka baag sajaau re
naihar ke geet mai gaau re

bhor bhayi mai gayi baag me o ho mai gayi baag me
bhor bhayi mai gayi baag me o ho mai gayi baag me
hath liye jaljari koyal ku ki ambua dhari ho gayi mai matwari
o ho ho gayi mai matwari mai jhum koyal ban jau

naihar ke geet mai gaau re

bulbul udti maina udti o maina udti bulbul udti maina udti
mai bhi pankh lagau titali ban ke ud ud jau
hath kisi ke na aau ho hath kisi ke na aau
shabnam ko hasana sikhau shabnam ko hasana sikhau
babul ka baag sajaau re naihar ke geet mai gaau re
naihar ke geet mai gaau babul ka baag sajaau re
naihar ke geet mai gaau re

I sing the song of my home, I sing,
I'll adorn my father's garden, I sing,
The song of my home I sing, I will adorn,
My father's garden, I sing.

At dawn, I went to the garden, oh,
At dawn, I went to the garden,
A water vessel in hand, the cuckoo calls,
Mango boughs sway, drunk with the light,
Oh, drunk with the light, I'll sway,
Become a cuckoo, and dance,
Become a cuckoo, and dance,
I will adorn my father's garden,
I sing the song of my home.

The bulbul flies, the myna flies,
I, too, will sprout wings,
Becoming a butterfly, I'll fly away,
Never to be caught by a hand,
Never to be caught,
I will teach the dewdrop to laugh,
I will teach the dewdrop to laugh,
I will adorn my father's garden,
I sing the song of my home,
I sing the song of my home,
I will adorn my father's garden,
I sing.
