Oh, Avatar of Rama, Beloved of Rama,
Oh, Rama's Support!
The telegram arrives from home,
Today the lock of my fate unlocks!
What's the matter, my dear?
My fair-skinned beloved is on the way!
So what, oh what has happened?

When my fair-skinned beloved arrives from the village,
Oh, my fair-skinned beloved, when she arrives from the village!
Oh, my fair-skinned beloved!
Without electricity, without electricity,
Without electricity, the hut will be lit!
When my fair-skinned beloved arrives from the village,
My fair-skinned beloved, my fair-skinned beloved!

The clamor of her youth, the clamor of her youth!
Oh, the clamor of her youth!
Oh, to see her, yes, to see her,
The whole neighborhood will yearn!
No one will look, no, no one will stare, no, no,
No one will look, no one will stare, no one will peek,
We will lock the door when we go out!
When my fair-skinned beloved arrives from the village,
Oh, my fair-skinned beloved!
Oh, when she arrives from the village,
Oh, my fair-skinned beloved, oh, my fair-skinned beloved!

Listen, listen, what's the matter?
Oh, is it a lie or the truth? Consider and listen, what's the matter?
When the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
What do you understand? When the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
Without electricity, oh, without electricity, the village will be lit!
When the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city, the fair-skinned beloved's husband, yes, the fair-skinned beloved's husband!

Hey, hey, hey, hey! Leaving Banaras, Allahabad,
Why did you come to Bombay, Pune? Oh, what to do?
Leaving Banaras, Allahabad, why did you come to Bombay, Pune?
You abandoned farming, why did you forsake the village?
When coal had to be delivered door to door, when you had to go around for milk,
Here you will put lime on betel leaves!
Oh, here you will put lime on betel leaves! Do farming, earn there twice as much!
What you desire, yes, yes, you will get, yes, yes,
What you desire, you will get, you will smile!
That soil will give everything,
That soil nurtured you, when the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
The fair-skinned beloved's husband, when the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
The fair-skinned beloved's husband!

Hey, hey, look, look, these are the games of karma!
Yes, yes, the games of karma, yes, look, look, these are the games of karma!
Those who sell gold in their soil, sell the soil's oil!
Sell the soil's oil! If you know your duty,
The nation's true dream will come true.
Oh, make friends with your plow!
The plow will solve all these difficulties!
The earth will sing, yes, yes, it will wave, yes, yes,
The earth will sing, it will wave, it will smile!
The lock of fortune will open from the tips of the plow!
Hey, when the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
The fair-skinned beloved's husband, when the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
The fair-skinned beloved's husband, without electricity, a spinning top!
Oh, without electricity, the village will be lit!
When the fair-skinned beloved's husband leaves the city,
The fair-skinned beloved's husband!
Yes, the fair-skinned beloved's husband, yes, the fair-skinned beloved's husband!
