jhingoda, jhingoda, jhing jho layi
hayi ho rabba hayi ho
nadiya me utha hai shor
chhayi hai ghata ghanghor, jana dur hai

ha nadi kinare sath hamare, sham suhani aayi
chand ke rath par baith ke jhilmil
chand ke rath par baith ke jhilmil
rath ki rani aayi, sham suhani aayi

aa ha ha ha naye jamane naye tarane, le ke javani aayi
sun sun jisko nach uthe dil
sun sun jisko nach uthe dil
aisi kahani layi, sham suhani aayi

jhingoda, jhingoda, jhing jho layi
hayi ho rabba hayi ho, hayi ho rabba hayi ho
hayi ho rabba hayi ho, hayi ho rabba hayi ho
nadiya me utha hai shor
chhayi hai ghata ghanghor, jana dur hai

o dharti par aakash hai jab tak
ho dil kaa nagar aabad rahega
dhalta suraj dhup sunahari
aaj kaa mausam yad rahega
aaj kaa mausam yad rahega
rut yeh rangili pyar ki sajan
rut yeh rangili pyar ki sajan
ban ke nishani aayi, sham suhani aayi
nadi kinare sath hamare, sham suhani aayi
aa aa aa aa

Jingora, Jingora, Jing Zho Lai,
Hai Ho Rabba, Hai Ho!
The river wakes a clamorous call,
Dark clouds gather, shadows fall, the journey far.

Ah, on the river's edge, we gather near,
A lovely evening, drawing ever dear.
Upon the moon's bright chariot, shimmering light,
Upon the moon's bright chariot, shimmering bright,
The Queen of Night descends, a lovely evening's might.

Ah ha ha, of a new age, a new song's embrace,
Youth's arrival, with a dancing grace.
Hearing which, the heart begins to leap,
Hearing which, the heart begins to leap,
A tale it brings, a lovely evening's keep.

Jingora, Jingora, Jing Zho Lai,
Hai Ho Rabba, Hai Ho, Hai Ho Rabba, Hai Ho!
Hai Ho Rabba, Hai Ho, Hai Ho Rabba, Hai Ho!
The river wakes a clamorous call,
Dark clouds gather, shadows fall, the journey far.

Oh, till earth and sky entwined remain,
The city of the heart will never wane.
The setting sun, a golden, sunlit hue,
Today's sweet season, we'll remember true.
Today's sweet season, we'll remember true.
This colorful season, love's own boon, my dear,
This colorful season, love's own boon, my dear,
As a lasting mark, a lovely evening's clear.
On the river's edge, we gather near,
A lovely evening, drawing ever dear.
Ah, ah, ah, ah...
