peena hai to pati prem peeyo
kya hai gangajal peene me
pati ko jo chhod sati jiye
kya rakha hai is jeene me

kaun jaaye mathura, kaun jaaye kaashi
in tirath se hume kya kaam hai
mere ghar hi me hai bhagwaan mere
inke charno me mere charo dhaan hai
kaun jaaye mathura, kaun jaaye kaashi

jis ghar me piya ka vaas hai
vo hi mere liye kailaash hai
jab swaami hi baithe paas hai
to jhuthi swarg ki aas hai
to jhuthi swarg ki aas hai
mere tan me base jo
mere man me base
rom rom me likha inka naam hai
mere ghar hi me hai bhagwaan mere
inke charno me mere charo dhaan hai
kaun jaaye mathura, kaun jaaye kaashi

rehna to ye amar humara
jab jab janam ho sath tumhara
na tute na ho kabhi nyara
do taaro ka ye ek tara
do taaro ka ye ek tara
geet inke sunaaun
preet man me basaaun
mere saanvre salone ghanshyaan hai
mere ghar hi me hai bhagwaan mere
inke charno me mere charo dhaan hai

kaun jaaye mathura, kaun jaaye kaashi
in tirath se hume kya kaam hai
mere ghar hi me hai bhagwaan mere
inke charno me mere charo dhaan hai
kaun jaaye mathura, kaun jaaye kaashi

Drink deep, drink the love of your husband,
What solace is in Ganges' holy water?
A wife who forsakes her lord and lives,
What meaning is there in such a life's quarter?

Why journey to Mathura, or Kashi's ghats?
What use are these pilgrimages to me?
My God resides within my own home's walls,
At their feet, my four abodes shall be.
Why journey to Mathura, or Kashi's ghats?

In the home where my beloved dwells,
That is my Kailash, my sacred place.
When my master sits beside me close,
False is the longing for heaven's embrace.
False is the longing for heaven's embrace.
Within my body, they reside,
Within my heart, they abide.
Their name is written in every pore and space.
My God resides within my own home's walls,
At their feet, my four abodes shall be.
Why journey to Mathura, or Kashi's ghats?

This love, ours will be eternal and true,
With every birth, side by side, we renew.
Never to break, never apart, anew,
Like two stars entwined, a radiant view.
Like two stars entwined, a radiant view.
Their songs I'll sing,
Their love I'll bring,
My dark-hued, charming Shyam, forever true.
My God resides within my own home's walls,
At their feet, my four abodes shall be.
