saiya ji ke gaon me ambua ki chao me
kaanta chubha more pao me haay ram
kaanta chubha more pao me
saiya ji ke gaon me ambua ki chao me
kaanta chubha more pao me ui maa
kaanta chubha more pao me

des paraye o albeli kahe gai thi chupke akeli
tu kya jane preet lagake man pe kya kya vipda kheli
pi se milan ka wada kiya tha kaise na jati saheli ho
andhiyari raat me vo bhi the sath me
kaanta chubha more pao me ui ram
kaanta chubha more pao me
saiya ji ke gaon me ambua ki chao me
kaanta chubha more pao me ui ram
kaanta chubha more pao me

age hua kya bol na gori kaanta chubha to khul gai chori
muh se nikla haay main mar gai saajan baiya pakdo mori
dekho ji main to ho gai re ghayal aa ke nagariya tori
ghar kaise jaungi fir aa na paungi
kaanta chunha more pao me haay ram
kaanta chubha more pao me
saiya ji ke gaon me ambua ki chao me
kaanta chunha more pao me ui ram
kaanta chubha more pao me

In my love's village, in mango's cool shade,
A thorn pierced my foot, oh, woe, I prayed.
A thorn pierced my foot, so deep and laid.
In my love's village, in mango's cool shade,
A thorn pierced my foot, oh, woe, I prayed.
A thorn pierced my foot, I was betrayed.

To a foreign land, why did you stray,
Hidden and lonely, at close of day?
You know not the love, the heart's despair,
What troubles love's game, you must bear.
A promise made, to meet with my love,
How could I not go, like a wounded dove?
In the dark night, he was near,
A thorn pierced my foot, my heart in fear.
A thorn pierced my foot, the vision clear.
In my love's village, in mango's cool shade,
A thorn pierced my foot, oh, woe, I prayed.
A thorn pierced my foot, my soul afraid.

Tell me, my love, what happened then?
The thorn revealed, the hidden sin.
A cry escaped, "I'm dying now!"
My love, hold me now, I avow.
I am wounded, I'm now a sight,
To your village I came, in the fading light.
How can I go home, never roam?
A thorn pierced my foot, I can't be alone.
A thorn pierced my foot, I'm now unknown.
In my love's village, in mango's cool shade,
A thorn pierced my foot, oh, woe, I prayed.
A thorn pierced my foot, my soul betrayed.
