rama duhai julmi kasai pakde kalai
rama duhai julmi kasai pakde kalai
na tut jaye hath naram naram naram naram
sasuri garam garam taram param pam
sasuri garam garam taram param pam

aa chum lu gal gulabi
bol jara jaan meri kyu hai khafa
hath laga na dur badan ko
dekh kabhi karna nahi aisi khata
chal mana ke tu koi hoor hai
meri ja kisliye magrur hai
piche pada hai jidd pe ada haichalu bada hai
kahe ko aaye na tujhe sharam sharam sharam sharam
sasuri garam garam garam garam

aaya yaha dur watan se
pyar ki saugat liye tera sajan
angrej mai tu hai dehati
hoga nahi aise kabhi apna milan
saji sawri dulhan ke bhesh me
tujhe le jaunga mere desh me
ja re anadi pagal premi do not touch me
mai tod dungi tera bharam bharam bharam bharam
sasuri garam garam garam garam

sasuri garam garam garam garam
rama duhai julmi kasai pakde kalai
rama duhai julmi kasai pakde kalai
na tut jaye hath naram naram naram naram
sasuri garam garam taram param pam
sasuri garam garam taram param pam

Mercy, O Rama! This butcher, cruel, grips my wrist,
Mercy, O Rama! This butcher, cruel, grips my wrist.
Oh, may this hand, so soft, so yielding, not break,
Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.
Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.

Let me kiss your cheeks of rose,
Tell me, my love, why are you vexed?
Do not touch, stay far from my form,
Know this, never make such a trespass.
Come, let us say you are a celestial nymph,
My life, why are you so proud?
You chase, you persist, obstinate, forward,
Tell me, does shame not touch you, shame, shame, shame?
Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.

I came here, far from my homeland,
Bearing love's gift for you, my beloved.
I am English, you are of the village,
Never will our union come to pass.
Adorned as a bride,
I will take you to my land.
Go, you clumsy, mad lover, do not touch me,
I will shatter this illusion, illusion, illusion.
Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.

Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.
Mercy, O Rama! This butcher, cruel, grips my wrist,
Mercy, O Rama! This butcher, cruel, grips my wrist.
Oh, may this hand, so soft, so yielding, not break,
Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.
Accursed heat, a burning, raging ache.
