jago re jago jago re gopal dwar aaye hai gawal
jago re jago jago re gopal dwar aaye hai gawal
aaj gauye charane nahi jaoge
chori chori makhan chura ke kanhiya
gawalo ke sang nhi gaoge jago re
gopal lal jago ab to jago

duniya phir kbhi na tere geet gayegi
tu na jaga to ye teri aan jayegi aan jayegi
ham anath tu to re jagat ka nath
aaj meri laaz parbhu tere hath hai
ho jago jago pyare gopal re apne baal hat ko chhod ke
zum zum sang nhi gaoge
chote chote hatho me leke murliya
mohan hame na sunaoge jago re mohan gopal jago re
sham ho to saugandh gopi ke der ki
ram ho to saungandh sabri ke ber ki
ban jayega ye nam dev dher bhsham ki
ab jagne me tune jo pal bhar jo der ki jago jago

Awake, awake, awaken, Gopal,
The cowherds gather at your door.
Awake, awake, awaken, Gopal,
The cowherds gather at your door.

Will you not wander forth to graze the kine?
Kanhaiya, will you not steal butter sweet,
And sing with the cowherds, line by line?
Awake, O Gopal, arise and greet.

The world will sing your song no more,
If you slumber, your glory will be lost,
We are orphans, you are the Lord before,
My honor, Prabhu, in your hands is crossed.

Awake, awake, dear Gopal, arise,
Leave behind your childish play,
Will you not sing in joyous guise?
Small hands holding flutes, will you not stay?
Mohan, will you not listen to our plea?
Awake, O Mohan, Gopal, awaken, see.

Should it be evening, by the oath of the Gopis, be not late,
Should it be Ram, by the oath of Shabari's berries, await,
This name will become a heap of ash, a fate,
If you delay awakening, even a moment. Awake, awake!
