dil me thes lagi ek bhaari
man me ab pachhtaye
puja karne chali pujaran
puja karne jaaye
puja karne jaaye

A priestess walked to pray,
walked to pray.
She walked to pray,
a priestess walked to pray,
walked to pray.

Flowers offered, lamps alight,
flowers offered, lamps alight,
a mark she did apply.
Four eyes met Krishna's gaze,
sense and soul flew by.
A priestess walked to pray,
walked to pray.

To the village, she went to pray,
her home her heart did hold,
her home her heart did hold.
A heavy blow within her heart,
regret, her mind controlled.
A priestess walked to pray,
walked to pray.

Embrace this slave at your feet,
embrace this slave at your feet,
the priestess wept and sung,
the priestess wept and sung.
Embrace this slave at your feet,
embrace this slave at your feet,
the priestess wept and sung,
the priestess wept and sung.
Sing to the heart, Krishna, the flute's master,
come to my heart, there abide.
