soi jaa, soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara
leike apne khilaune sapne salone
galiyan me aaya ik banjaara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara
leike apne khilaune sapne salone
galiyan me aaya ik banjaara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara

chhuk-chhuk dono chale yauvan ke khel-tamasha kare
chhuk-chhuk dono chale yauvan ke khel-tamasha kare
shor machaaye dekho zara saa khel-tamasha kare
tu bhi akeli mai bhi akela, tu besahara mai besahara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara

hamka roz ye gali, ye aangan kitte akele laage
hamka roz ye gali, ye aangan kitte akele laage
aaj tu ghar aayi garib ke ghar me mele laage
ka bolu aage hamka to laage, aaj ye kutiya uncha chaubara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara

hamari duhaayi badal ke raama la la la lori bani
hamari duhaayi badal ke raama la la la lori bani
dor ye phaansi ki dekho bhaai jhule ki dori bani
tune to ayi ke has ke hasayi ke badal diya sansar sara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara
leike apne khilaune sapne salone
galiyan me aaya ik banjaara
o soi jaa taara ho soi jaa taara

la la la lori dudh ki katori
dudh me batasha munni kare tamasha
la la la lori dudh ki katori
dudh me batasha munni kare tamasha
leike apne khilaune sapne salone
galiyan me aaya ik banjaara, ik banjaara
ik banjaara, ik banjaara, ik banjaara

Sleep now, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star,
Sleep now, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star.
Bearing trinkets, dreams so fair,
A wanderer comes, through streets to share.
Oh, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star,
Bearing trinkets, dreams so fair,
A wanderer comes, through streets to share.
Oh, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star.

Wheels they turn, in youth's display,
Wheels they turn, in youth's display,
Making noise, let us play,
You, alone, I alone, helpless we stray.
Oh, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star.

This lane, this courtyard, how lonely they seem,
This lane, this courtyard, how lonely they seem,
Today you've come, poor house, a festive dream,
What to say, I feel, this shack, a palace gleam.
Oh, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star.

My cries transformed, into Ram's lullaby,
My cries transformed, into Ram's lullaby,
This noose of fate, see now, a swing hangs high,
You came, you smiled, you wept, changed all nearby.
Oh, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star,
Bearing trinkets, dreams so fair,
A wanderer comes, through streets to share.
Oh, sleep now, star, oh sleep now, star.

Lullaby, lullaby, a bowl of milk,
Sugar crystals, Munni's playful silk.
Lullaby, lullaby, a bowl of milk,
Sugar crystals, Munni's playful silk.
Bearing trinkets, dreams so fair,
A wanderer comes, a wanderer to share, a wanderer,
A wanderer, a wanderer, a wanderer.
