ram duhhayi haay ram duhayi haay ram duhayi
mai to dijele nagar sajali mai dhan paayi diyar
bachaao diyar bachaao baat chalat chunri sar kaayi
re mai to ghughat me sar maayi re maito ghughat me
sar maayi yuor aasaam diyar maayi yuor aasaam
diyar bachaao diyar bachaao duyar bachaao ram
duhayi haay ram duhayi haay ram duhayi mai to

dijale nagar saj fhal paayi thnthi thanthi

aahe bhare mohe dekh ke sau sau nakhare kare
hame dekh ke sau sau nakhare kare koyi kyaa
is par biswaash kare kahe o dil var ham tumse
mare aabhi jaa diyar maai aabhi jaa aabhi jaa
aabhi jaa diyar bachaao diyar bachaao phaisan
ghish pit aar lagaae phaisan ghish pit aar
lagaae hamko to ek aakh naa bhaae
kis bidhi isse jaan bachaae kis bidhi murkh

ko sam jhaae maay maay good baay good baay

ram duhayi haay ram duhayi haay ram duhayi
mayi to dije le nagar saj li phal paayi

A cry to Rama, a lament on high,
A city unveiled, a harvest I spy.
Oh, save me, dear, as I walk the way,
My veil undone, my colors astray.
I hide in shadows, my spirit subdued,
Your sorrow, dear, deeply imbued.

Dear, save me, oh, save me now,
A cry to Rama, a furrowed brow.
A city unveiled, a fruit I have won,
Cold sighs escape, the game begun.
A hundred gestures, a fickle display,
Who trusts in such fleeting sway?
My heart cries out, I’m yours to hold,
Come now, dear, a story to be told.
Go now, depart, dear, save me from this phase,
A fashion's grip, through life's maze.

This beaten path, this fashion's hold,
My eyes reject, my spirit cold.
How to escape, how to break free?
How to enlighten such idiocy?
My, my, goodbye, goodbye I cry,
A cry to Rama, as moments fly.
A city unveiled, a harvest's grace.
