By Yamuna's shore, we shall hold the way,
We shall hold the way, why do you form a line, why do you delay?

In crimson earthen pots,
In crimson earthen pots, curd I have filled,
I have filled, yes, I have filled,
I have filled, yes, I have filled.
To soothe my beloved's heart, I shall entice,
To soothe my beloved's heart, I shall entice,
To soothe my beloved's heart, I shall entice.
Entice, entice, why do you form a line,
Why do you delay?
Why do you delay?

Churn, churn, churn the churn,
Oh, the curd's sharp tang,
Churn, churn, churn the churn,
Oh, the curd's sharp tang.
Become open, oh, the gardener,
Become open, oh, the gardener.
Your hands joined, see the cowherds,
Your hands joined, see the cowherds.
In the forest, the joy of the grove,
In the forest, the joy of the grove.
Why do you form a line,
Why do you delay?
By Yamuna's shore, we shall hold the way,
We shall hold the way, why do you form a line, why do you delay?
