ho tere ganv me ho tere ganv me
tere ganv me sajan mora dil na lage
mohe dolli shahar dikhla de
balmwa jamuna sanan kra de
ho kyun ganv se ho kyun ganv se
kyun ganv se ruth gyi hai sajniya
itna to mohe batla de sajniya
manwa ki bat bata de
dillil shahar me hai ek bajriya
bikti hai waha pe dhani chunriya
ho o more balmwa ho more balmwa
dillil shahar me hai ek bajriya
bikti hai waha pe dhani chunriya
dili ki odhani oda de sawriya
chandni chok dikhla de balmwa
jamuma sanan kra de main wari jau
jamuma sanan kra de

apne ganv ki kheti badi
kise chod ke jau main pyari
ho o mori janiya ho mori janiya
apne ganv ki kheti badi
kaise chod ke jau main pyari
kaise chalegi pet ki gadi
itna tu mohe samjha de sajniya
itna to mohe batla de sajniya
manwa ki bat bata de
dilli shahar me bade bade chaudhary
bade bade chaudhary dilli shahar me
bade bade chaudhary
unke waha tum kariyo naukari kriyo naukari
milegi tankhva mauj karenge
lal kile ki ser karenge
milegi tankhva mauj karenge
lal kile ki ser karenge

manegi na tu badi hathili
manegi na tu badi hathili
bandh le gathardi meri chameli
wah re balam to pe wari wari jau
rabdi parathe tujh ko khilau
jara jaldi se tickt kata de
ho jara jaldi se tickt kata de sajnwa
dilli shahar dikhla de balmwa
jamuma sanan kra de main wari jau
jamuma sanan kra de
ho tere ganv me ho tere ganv me
tere ganv me sajan mora dil na lage
mohe dolli shahar dikhla de
balmwa jamuna sanan kra de

In your village, in your village,
My heart finds no solace, beloved.
Show me Delhi's city bright,
My love, let the Yamuna bathe me in light.

Why this village, oh why this village,
Why, my love, have you turned from this place?
Tell me this much, my beloved,
Unveil the whispers of your heart.

In Delhi's heart, a bustling square,
Where emerald veils, beyond compare,
are sold with such grace.

Oh, my love, oh my love,

You won't listen, stubborn as you are,

Pack my bag, my jasmine star.

Rabri and paratha, for you I will brew.
Quickly, book the tickets, and let the journey start.
