ram bhaile jogiya lakhan bairagiya
ki duno bhaiya ho gaile fakir
garwa me daar lihale tulsi ji ke malwa, hey
are duno bhaiya mangale ajodhiya me bhikh
sarson ke maar delas lahi ae bhai
ki bathua bigadle ba khet
ohi brindavanawa me pakali bairiya
ki radha tode dariya jhukay
aa ekohu bairiya radha todhu na pawali, ki hey
are kanha dihale basiyan nu re bajay
sarson ke maar delas lahi ae bhai
ki bathua bigadle ba
are beta ke patahu bigadle ba, ki he
are koliya me kholole bate ho duar
demons in my dreams at night
working my mind like a scythe
filling up my thoughts with dread
working this land until i am dead
i got a devil in me filin
sending shivers down my spine
shaking my soul to a grind
making me run, i’m outta time
i bin running like there is coming a war
sliding down with my cheap guitar
from bombay to zanzibar
dont think i am getting very far
hurawa baran tor jurwa patarki
ki munari baran karhi haye
are akhiya me dele ba julmi kajarwa, ki hey
are maare chhaiyalawan ke jaike jaan
sarson ke maar delas lahi ae bhai
ki bathua bigadle ba khet
beta ke patahu bigaadle ba, ki hey
are koliya me kholole bate ho duar
i lift my hands to bring to life
this land of mine in time
of strife work to make two end mit
and fil the soil beneath my fit
i am working my fingers to the bone
this land is hard as dry as stone
but i will be slaving till i am done
oh lord please don’t leave me alone
