soja mere raaj dulare
mere nanhe aankh ke taare ho
soja mere raaj dulare
mere nanhe aankh ke taare ho
soja soja

ek tha raja ek thi rani
dono ki thi preet purani
dono karte the manmani
dono karte the manmani
aa re nindiya puri karde kahani ho
soja mere raaj dulare
more nanhe aankh ke taare ho
soja soja

bachpan beete aaye jawani
to phir aaye chand ki rani
duniya teri ho diwani
duniya teri ho diwani
sare jah me faile teri kahani ho
soja mere raaj dulare
more nanhe aankh ke taare ho
soja soja

Sleep now, my beloved prince,
My tiny stars, the gems of my eyes,
Sleep now, my beloved prince,
My tiny stars, the gems of my eyes,
Sleep, sleep now.

Once there was a king, a queen too,
Their love, an ancient, familiar hue,
They ruled their hearts, their whims they drew,
They ruled their hearts, their whims they drew,
Come, slumber, let this story imbue,
Sleep now, my beloved prince,
My tiny stars, the gems of my eyes,
Sleep, sleep now.

Childhood fades, youth takes its flight,
Then comes the moon's own, gentle light,
The world will swoon in sheer delight,
The world will swoon in sheer delight,
Your tale will spread, both day and night,
Sleep now, my beloved prince,
My tiny stars, the gems of my eyes,
Sleep, sleep now.
