palko ka palna naino ki dori
palko ka palna naino ki dori
maiya jhulaye gaaye mithi mithi lori
sapno me aaye tere pariyo ki chhori
maiya jhulaye gaaye mithi mithi lori
soja mere laal mere nanhe se gopal

dekhu jo mukhda to mit jaye dukhda
dekhu jo mukhda to mit jaye dukhda
mere liye tu hai chanda ka tukda
mere liye tu hai chanda ka tukda
mamta bhari hai mere man ki katori
palko ka palna naino ki dori
maiya jhulaye gaaye mithi mithi lori
soja mere laal mere nanhe se gopal

soya hai madhuban jamuna hai khoyi
sari nagariya hai nindiya me khoyi
sari nagariya hai nindiya me khoyi
tujhko chandniya sulaye chori chori
palko ka palna naino ki dori
maiya jhulaye gaaye mithi mithi lori
soja mere laal mere nanhe se gopal

The cradle of lashes, a thread of the eyes,
The cradle of lashes, a thread of the eyes,
Mother gently sways, sings lullabies sweet,
In dreams arrive your fairies so neat,
Mother gently sways, sings lullabies sweet,
Sleep now, my darling, my tiny Gopal.

When I see your face, all sorrows erase,
When I see your face, all sorrows erase,
For me, you are a piece of the moon's grace,
For me, you are a piece of the moon's grace,
My heart's bowl overflows with maternal embrace,
The cradle of lashes, a thread of the eyes,
Mother gently sways, sings lullabies sweet,
Sleep now, my darling, my tiny Gopal.

The honey-grove sleeps, the Yamuna sleeps too,
The whole city is lost in slumber anew,
The whole city is lost in slumber anew,
Sandalwood whispers, lulls you through and through,
The cradle of lashes, a thread of the eyes,
Mother gently sways, sings lullabies sweet,
Sleep now, my darling, my tiny Gopal.
