haye ram ji pad gaye hum kis bairan ke paale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
haye ram ji pad gaye hum kis bairan ke paale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale

man hi man me koi kisi se
pyar kare to kya hota hai
man hi man me koi kisi se
pyar kare to kya hota hai

aahe bhare to kya hota hai
are hum ka jane
jisko lage ye rog samajh lo pad gaye jaan ke laale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
haye ram ji pad gaye hum kis bairan ke paale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale

nari se bas ram bachaye kah gaye kahne wale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
haye ram ji pad gaye hum kis bairan ke paale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale

hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
haye ram ji pad gaye hum kis bairan ke paale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
haye ram ji
haye ram ji pad gaye hum kis bairan ke paale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
aahe hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale
hum hai bhola nath jonpur wale

Glory be, what’s this?
Glory to the Ganges, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!

When a boy and girl embrace,
Yes, when a boy and girl embrace,
Why does the heart pound so?
Why does lightning flash through the body's space?
Alas, we know not!
Oh Ram, into whose snare have we fallen?
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Oh Ram, into whose snare have we fallen?
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.

When in the heart, one loves another,
When in the heart, one loves another,
What happens then?
Waking at midnight, sighing,
What happens then?
Alas, we know not!
To feel this affliction, know that life hangs by a thread.
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Oh Ram, into whose snare have we fallen?
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.

I will shame you in every street,
Listen to my words.
I will shame you in every street,
Listen to my words.
Look, young man, this is no game,
To set fire and then depart.
Alas, we know not!
May Ram protect us from women, as the wise have said.
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Oh Ram, into whose snare have we fallen?
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.

However ignorant you pretend to be,
I will not leave you.
However ignorant you pretend to be,
I will not leave you.
I wear bangles in your name,
And I will not break them now.
Alas, we know not!
The doors of my heart are now locked by the Dharma.
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Oh Ram, into whose snare have we fallen?
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Oh Ram!
Oh Ram, into whose snare have we fallen?
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Ah, we are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
We are the simple souls of Jaunpur.
Victory to Lord Ram of the house of Siyapati!
