aa ja re nindiya nain dvare
nanha sa munna palke pasare
nanha sa munna palke pasare
maa ko pukare tujhko pukare
aa ja re nindiya nain dvare
nanha sa munna palke pasare
nanha sa munna palke pasare

aankho mein aake sapne saja de sapne saja de
kano mein iske ghughru baja de ghughru baja de
jholi mein bhar de chanda sitare
aa ja re nindiya nain dvare
nanha sa munna palke pasare
nanha sa munna palke pasare

dukhiya ko papi duniya ne luta
godi ka bachcha mata se chhuta
dukhiya ko papi duniya ne luta
godi ka bachcha mata se chhuta
maa roti hogi aanchal pasare
aa ja re nindiya nain dvare
nanha sa munna palke pasare
nanha sa munna palke pasare

duniya koi mata na
jiski mata na jiski
wo bachcha mera main mata
uski main mata uski
aise mere lakho dulare
aa ja re nindiya nain dvare
nanha sa munna palke pasare
nanha sa munna palke pasare

Come, Sleep, to the windows of his eyes,
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
He forgets his mother, calls for you,
Come, Sleep, to the windows of his eyes,
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.

Enter his eyes, and paint him dreams, paint dreams.
In his ears, ring the bells of sleep, ring sleep's bells.
Fill his cradle with the moon and stars.
Come, Sleep, to the windows of his eyes,
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.

The sorrowful, the wicked world has stolen,
The babe from his mother’s arms has fallen.
The sorrowful, the wicked world has stolen,
The babe from his mother’s arms has fallen.
His mother weeps, her shawl outstretched.
Come, Sleep, to the windows of his eyes,
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.

The world provides no mother's love,
For those without, for those without.
That child is mine, and I his mother,
I am his mother, I am his mother.
Like him, I hold a million dears.
Come, Sleep, to the windows of his eyes,
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
A tiny babe, his lashes spread.
