so ja mere ladle so ja mere laal
so ja mere ladle so ja mere laal
ma sunaye loriya papa dete taal
so ja mere ladle so ja mere laal
ma sunaye loriya papa dete taal

mithi mithi nindiya dekhe teri rahe
mithi mithi nindiya dekhe teri rahe
chori chori palko ko teri sahlaye
chhote chhote tare andhiyari raat
sab mujhe kahte hai ek yahi baat
soya nahi kaisa hai yashoda tera laal
so ja mere ladle so ja mere laal
ma sunaye loriya papa dete taal

khushiyo se jivan ka pal pal sajana
khushiyo se jivan ka pal pal sajana
kabhi nahi rona hanske jivan bitana
dhup ho kadi chahe mile ghani chhanv
phulo ka ho rasta ya kanto pe ho pannv
chalte hi jana apni manjil ko pana
so ja mere ladle so ja mere laal
maa sunaye loriya papa dete tal

Sleep now, my darling, sleep now, my love,
Sleep now, my darling, sleep now, my love,
Mother sings lullabies, Father keeps time, above,
Sleep now, my darling, sleep now, my love,
Mother sings lullabies, Father keeps time, above.

Sweet, sweet slumber waits for your eyes,
Sweet, sweet slumber waits for your eyes,
Stealing softly, caressing where beauty lies,
Tiny stars in the darkest of skies,
Whispering secrets, as the hours rise,
"Why is your Krishna still awake?" they surmise,
Sleep now, my darling, sleep now, my love,
Mother sings lullabies, Father keeps time, above.

May your life be adorned with joy's embrace,
May your life be adorned with joy's embrace,
Never to weep, with smiles your life you'll trace,
Whether sun beats hard or shade finds space,
Paths of flowers or thorns, in life's race,
Keep moving onward, to find your place,
Sleep now, my darling, sleep now, my love,
Mother sings lullabies, Father keeps time, above.
