Stay here, oh stay, here, Rama, stay,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile.
For fourteen years, in this very place,
Remain with us, Rama,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile.
Stay here, oh stay, here, Rama, stay,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile, Rama,
Do not go to exile.

If you but command, here we shall build,
A new Ayodhya, yes,
A new Ayodhya.
Oh, if you desire,
We'll dig the earth, and bring the Sarayu here,
Oh, Rama, Sita, Rama, oh, Rama, Sita, Rama,
Oh, Rama, Sita, Rama.
For you, we shall raise a palace,
Then, with folded hands, we'll make it our home.
All the gods and goddesses will come to witness,
And press their fingers to their teeth in awe.
Stay, do not go,
Oh, oh!
Since you have come, you are ours, oh Rama,
Since you have come, you are ours,
The sky itself has descended to earth, Rama,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile, Rama,
Do not go to exile.
Stay here, oh stay, here, Rama, stay,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile, Rama,
Do not go to exile.

On Rakhi, we shall make you,
Our beloved brother, oh,
Our beloved brother.
Oh, we'll call Sita Rani, sister-in-law,
And embrace her with affection.
Oh, Rama, Sita, Rama, oh, Rama, Sita, Rama,
Oh, Rama, Sita, Rama.
We will circle around sister-in-law,
And never leave her side.
If she sulks, we will appease her,
We'll play the drums and sing for her.
Stay, do not go,
Oh, oh!
Sometimes we meet in the forest, oh Rama,
Sometimes we meet in the forest,
Those wicked demons, Rama,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile, Rama,
Do not go to exile.
Stay here, oh stay, here, Rama, stay,
Do not go to the forest, Rama,
Do not go to exile, Rama,
Do not go to exile.
