mai jo gaau to ye naache
kare salaami haath uthaa ke
dekho rang jamaaye kartab nye nye dikhaye
khel humaara dekh ke duniya paise barsaati
ye mera haathi mai iska saathi
hum dono ki jodi kya kya khel hai dikhlaati
ye mera haathi mai iska saathi
hum dono ki jodi kya kya khel hai dikhlaati
are hum dono ki jodi kya kya khel hai dikhlaati

We have arrived, O friend, we have arrived,
With games and wonders, our hearts revived.
A spectacle we'll unfold, a joyful art,
To fill each soul with a grateful heart.

The elephant, my comrade true,
He is mine, and I am his, it's true.
Our pair, a bond of strength and grace,
Reveals wonders in this vibrant space.

Oh, our pair, a bond of strength and grace,

When I sing, he begins to sway,
When I sing, his spirit will play.
He salutes with a gentle hand,
When I sing, across the land.
Behold the colors, the feats we weave,
Our play enchants, and the world believes,
And showers gold upon our way.
