chota sa sansar hamara
chota sa sansar
ha chota sa sansar hamara
chota sa sansar
ha sundar nagari sada ganv
thadi thandi thandi neem ki chanv
ha sundar nagari sada ganv
thadi thandi thandi neem ki chanv
hai bail sanware sundar chapnaar
khat khat khat khat khat karta
hai bail sanware sundar chapnaar
khat khat khat khat khat karta
pyara pyara sada sada
chota sa sansar hamara
chota sa sansar

wo dekho kheto ki hariyali
wo dekho kheto ki hariyali
patte nache jhume dhali dhali
rehat chale o chakkar khaye
chal chal pani aaye
rehat chale o chakkar khaye
chal chal pani aaye
behati hai hai ang ki dara
chota sa sansar hamara
chota sa sansar

dekho dekho bail chale
hu gadi se bhi tej chale
ho o o o jhume jiya ki lehar chale
ho o o o jhume jiya ki lehar chale
aur bhi isko tej chalau
khil khil hansti jau
aur bhi isko tej chalau
khil khil hansti jau
aur kanpe e shahari bechara
chota sa sansar hamara
chota sa sansar
ha chota sa sansar hamara

Our world, a tiny sphere,
Our world, so small, so near.
Yes, a world of modest grace,
A simple town, a peaceful place.
Cool shade the neem trees lend,
Cool shadows that transcend.

The oxen, dark and fine,
With bells that softly chime.
Clack-clack, the cart wheels sound,
As homeward they are bound.
Clack-clack, the cart wheels sound,
Our world, pure, profound.

Behold the fields of green,
Where leaves in dance are seen.
The branches sway, a joyful show,
The water wheel begins to flow.
Gush-gush, the water’s might,
Our world, bathed in light.

See the oxen, watch them go,
Faster than the city’s flow.
My heart it leaps, a joyful sound,
As the cart goes round and round.
Faster still, I make it fly,
Laughing as the hours drift by.
And the city dweller, he just stares,
Our world, beyond all cares.
Yes, our world, a tiny sphere.
