raja na jaa na jaa na jaa
raja na jaa dil tod ke mujhe akela chhod ke
naukri se chhuti le le, chhutti na mile toh
aaja naukri chhod ke, naukri chhod ke
naukri chhod ke, naukri chhod ke
raja na jaa dil tod ke mujhe akela chhod ke
naukri se chhuti le le, chhutti na mile toh
aaja naukri chhod ke, naukri chhod ke
naukri chhod ke, naukri chhod ke

ho rama ho rama ho rama ho
tumko meri bechaini ka karan nahi banana tha
naukar nahi banana tha ya phir sajan nahi banana tha
naukar nahi banana tha ya phir sajan nahi banana tha
barkha me jo pyasa rakhe woh sawan nahi banana tha
ya toh mera dil rakh le
dil na rakh sake toh rakh de yeh dil tod ke
na jaa akela chhod ke

aisi rut me yaad duja naam koyi hota hai
paise ke liye pritam badnam koyi hota hai
paise ke liye pritam badnam koyi hota hai
pyaar se jaruri bhala kaam koyi hota hai
maan le tu harjayi
yeh na mane toh dekh idhar muh mod ke
na jaa akela chhod ke, raja na jaa

teri judayi me meri jaan nikal jayegi
dil ki lagi banke chhuri dil pe chal jayegi
dil ki lagi banke chhuri dil pe chal jayegi
saiyya bina ghunghat mere gori jal jayegi
ya tu gale se laga le
ya chunar la de, rou mai chunar odh ke
na jaa akela chhod ke
raja na jaa na jaa na jaa
raja na jaa dil tod ke mujhe akela chhod ke
naukri se chhuti le le, chhutti na mile toh
aaja naukri chhod ke, naukri chhod ke
naukri chhod ke, naukri chhod ke

King, do not go, do not go, do not go.
King, do not go, breaking my heart, leaving me alone.
Take leave from your work, if leave you cannot find,
Come, forsake your work, forsake your work.
Forsake your work, forsake your work.
King, do not go, breaking my heart, leaving me alone.
Take leave from your work, if leave you cannot find,
Come, forsake your work, forsake your work.
Forsake your work, forsake your work.

Oh Rama, Oh Rama, Oh Rama, oh!
You were not meant to be the cause of my unrest,
You were not meant to be a servant, nor a lover true.
You were not meant to be a servant, nor a lover true.
You were not meant to be the monsoon, yet leave me thirsty still.
Either keep my heart,
Or if you cannot keep it, then cast it aside and break it.
Do not go, leaving me alone.

In a season such as this, another name is remembered,
For money's sake, a beloved becomes infamous.
For money's sake, a beloved becomes infamous.
Is there any task more important than love?
Yield, you betrayer,
Or if you do not yield, turn your face and look this way.
Do not go, leaving me alone, King, do not go.

In your separation, my life will ebb away,
The fire of the heart will become a blade upon my heart.
The fire of the heart will become a blade upon my heart.
Without my love, this fair maiden will be consumed.
Either embrace me,
Or bring a veil, and I shall weep, draped in the veil.
Do not go, leaving me alone.
King, do not go, do not go, do not go.
King, do not go, breaking my heart, leaving me alone.
Take leave from your work, if leave you cannot find,
Come, forsake your work, forsake your work.
Forsake your work, forsake your work.
