mune ko mai to savaru sajaugi
mathe pe kajal ka tika lagaugi
mune ko mai to savaru sajaugi
mathe pe kajal ka tika lagaugi
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage
mune ko mai to savaru sajaugi
mathe pe kajal ka tika lagaugi
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage

likhe padega tu ye meri duaa hai
ghodi chadega tu ye meri duaa hai
likhe padega tu ye meri duaa hai
ghodi chadega tu ye meri duaa hai
naam karega mera jag me kanhya
aage badega tu ye meri duaa hai

chanda ki raho me diye jalalugi
sacha jo rasta hai tujhko dikhaugi
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage

mere jivan ka lla tu hi sahara
tukada jigar ka mera raj dulara
mere jivan ka lla tu hi sahara
tukada jigar ka mera raj dulara
itni umar ho teri jitne hai tare
dono jahan me koi tujhsa na pyara

raju ko ek din mai dulha banaugi
pariyao ke jaisi mai dulhan le aaugi
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage

chanda se aage mere chanda tu jaye
nile gagan se jake tu laut aaye
chanda se aage mere chanda tu jaye
mile gagan se joki tu lot aaye
apne watan ka bane tu bhi sipaiya
har koi chahe tujhe dil se lagaye
tujhko jamane me jina sikhaugi
meri jo aasha hai vo bhi mai paugi
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage
jiyo mere ladle tujhko najar na lage

I shall adorn, I shall make him bright,
My moon-faced one, bathed in morning light.
A kohl-kissed mark upon his brow I'll keep,
To ward off shadows while he's fast asleep.
May my darling thrive, from all harm set free,
May my darling thrive, for all eternity.

My blessing whispers, "May you learn and grow,"
"Upon a steed, your triumphs you shall show."
My blessing whispers, "May you rise and soar,"
"A name to echo, forevermore."

I'll light the moonlit paths with lamps ablaze,
To guide your footsteps through life's winding maze.
May my darling thrive, from all harm set free,
May my darling thrive, for all eternity.

My life's support, my solace, my dear son,
A piece of my heart, my precious one.
May your years stretch out as stars in the night,
None in this world shine with such radiant light.

One day, Raju, a groom you shall become,
A fairy-like bride, I'll bring you home.
May my darling thrive, from all harm set free,
May my darling thrive, for all eternity.

Beyond the moon, my moon, your path shall be,
From azure skies, return to me.
May you be a soldier, a protector true,
The world embraces, loving only you.
I'll teach you living, and life's gentle art,
And find the hope that dwells within my heart.
May my darling thrive, from all harm set free,
May my darling thrive, for all eternity.
