ruth gaye more shyaam sakhi ri
chain mai kaise paaun
pyaar ki chubhan amit luteraa
man mandir me kiyaa andheraa
gokul dhundhun mathuraa dhundhun
bolo mai kit jaaun, koi bolo mai kit jaaun

shyaam mile to
shyaam mile to bali bali jaaun
chham chham naachun, mangal gaaun
shyaam mile to bali bali jaaun
chham chham naachun, mangal gaaun

soi prit jagaaun sakhi ri
soi prit jagaaun sakhi ri soi prit jagaaun
soi prit jagaaun sakhi ri soi prit jagaaun
gokul dhundhun, mathuraa dhundhun
bolo mai kit jaaun koi bolo mai kit jaaun
chun chun ke mai aankh me moti, piroti
chun chun ke mai aankh me moti
aashaa ke mai haar piroti
ruthaa mit manaaun sakhi
ri ruthaa mit manaaun

shamaa karo bhagwaan
shamaa karo bhagwaan mere
tum mujhko man ki bhul
mai to abhaagan teri daasi
mai charno ki dhul
laaj bachaa lo meri prabhu ji
rakh lo meraa maan
rakh lo meraa maan
rakh lo meraa maan

My Shyam has turned away, my friend,
How can I find solace now?
The sting of love, an indelible thief,
Has plunged my heart's temple into grief.
I search for Gokul, I search for Mathura,
Tell me, where do I go? Oh, tell me where?

If Shyam I find,
I'll offer myself, again and again.
I'll dance with joy, sing hymns of praise.
If Shyam I find,
I'll offer myself, again and again.
I'll dance with joy, sing hymns of praise.

I'll awaken the slumbering love, my friend,
I'll awaken the slumbering love,
I'll awaken the slumbering love.
I'll awaken the slumbering love, my friend.
I search for Gokul, I search for Mathura,
Tell me, where do I go? Oh, tell me where?
I gather pearls from my eyes,
I weave a garland of hope.
I'll appease my estranged love, my friend,
I'll appease my love.

Forgive me, Lord,
Forgive my transgressions.
I am lost in the folly of my mind.
I am your unfortunate servant,
Dust at your feet.
Protect my honor, Lord,
Uphold my dignity.
Uphold my dignity.
Uphold my dignity.
