nacho ta tha thaiya
ayi ayi ayi ya
jhum ke jhumo bhaiya
ayi ayi ayi ya
are apun sabke mama
ayi ayi ayi ya
dekho ye joda jama
ayi ayi ayi ya

sar pe aayi topi
hath me aaya danda
meri badal gayi chaal
jhuth ne bazi haari
sach ne bazi maari
lallu bana phir kotwal
ye nacho ta tha thaiya
ayi ayi ayi ya
jhum ke jhumo bhaiya
ayi ayi ayi ya
apun sabke mama
ayi ayi ayi ya
dekho ye joda jama
ayi ayi ayi ya

jo karega ab lutpaat
wo dhulega dhobhi ghat
aaya hai mera raajpaat
dekho ye mera thaatbaat
chacha ho ya chachi
sala ho ya saali
rakhunga sabka khyaal
jhuth ne bazi haari
sach ne bazi maari
lallu bana phir kotwal
nacho ta tha thaiya
ayi ayi ayi ya
jhum ke jhumo bhiya
ayi ayi ayi ya
are apun sabke mama
ayi ayi ayi ya
dekho ye joda jama
ayi ayi ayi ya

Dance, a whirling dervish's grace,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
Sway, a joyful, spinning space,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
I am everyone's uncle dear,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
See, the gathering is here,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!

A cap upon my head takes flight,
A staff within my hand,
My very footsteps shift to light,
Across this promised land.
Lies have lost their wicked game,
Truth has seized the crown,
Lallu wears the law's new name,
Justice flows down.
Dance, a whirling dervish's grace,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
Sway, a joyful, spinning space,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
I am everyone's uncle dear,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
See, the gathering is here,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!

He who plunders, steals, and takes,
Shall wash within the tide,
My reign, its righteous wake,
With nothing left to hide.
Whether uncle, aunt, or kin,
I'll guard each heart with care,
Lies have lost, and truth will win,
Justice everywhere.
Dance, a whirling dervish's grace,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
Sway, a joyful, spinning space,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
I am everyone's uncle dear,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
See, the gathering is here,
Aye, aye, aye, ya!
