o thanedar thanedar aaya ho thanedar aaya
thanedar aaya ho thanedar aaya
thanedar aaya ho thanedar aaya

pehli pehli bar aisa thanedar aaya
itna himmat wala jis par humko pyar aaya
jaan lutane wala laaj bachane wala
jaan lutane wala laaj bachane wala
gao damadam nacho chhamacham
gao damadam nacho chhamacham
gao damadam o ho thanedar aaya

sare gav ki bahu betiya teri jai jai gaye
pulis kamishnar ban jaye tu deti hai ye duvaye
jivan bhar na bhulenge hum tera ye upkar
dil karta hai pehna du tujhko baho ka har
gao damadam nacho chhamacham
gao damadam nacho chhamacham
gao damadam o ho thanedar aaya
pehli pehli bar aisa thanedar aaya
itna himmat wala jis par humko pyar aaya

hatim bankar baitha hai jo ye to hai aawara
nakara ko samjh liya kyu apni aankh ka tara
ye matkar hai ye gaddar hai rakshak nahi tumhara
ye wo nahi jo tumne samjha ye to hai hathyara
tufa se jo takraya tu hai wo hi dildar
chhod na dena tu sath o mere sarkar
gao damadam nacho chhamacham
gao damadam nacho chhamacham
gao damadam o ho thanedar aaya
pehli pehli bar aisa thanedar aaya

The constable comes, the constable comes,
He comes, oh, he comes!
The constable arrives, a first of his kind,
A hero so bold, a love we find.
He risks his life, our honor to keep,
Sing and rejoice, let your spirits leap!
Sing and rejoice, dance and sway,
Sing and rejoice, the constable's way!

The village daughters, their blessings impart,
May you rise, Commissioner, in heart.
Forever we'll cherish your selfless deed,
My heart yearns to garland you indeed.
Sing and rejoice, dance and sway,
Sing and rejoice, the constable's way!
A first of his kind, a love we find.

This rogue, this imposter, sits in his place,
Why treasure the worthless, a disgrace?
He's cunning and treacherous, not your protector true,
He is not what you think, a weapon for you.
You are the beloved who faces the storm,
Never falter, my leader, keep our souls warm.
Sing and rejoice, dance and sway,
Sing and rejoice, the constable's way!
A first of his kind, a love we find.
