hey ek aisa tha raja
ek tha gaaw jaha ka
ek aisa tha raja
sabke dilo me vo rahta
uske jaisa koi nahi tha
ek tha gaaw jaha ka
ek aisa tha raja
sabke dilo me vo rahta
uske jaisa koi nahi tha

gaaw me sabhi ke chehare
phulo ki tarah khilte the
gaaw me sabhi ke chehare
phulo ki tarah khilte the
khushiyo bari thi duniya
pyar ke diye jalte the
har ghar uska tha apna ghar
sabke liye vo ek barabar
sukh aur dukh me
sabka sathi vo banata tha
uske rahte har din mela the

ek tha gaaw jaha ka
ek aisa tha raja
ek tha gaaw jaha ka
ek aisa tha raja
sabke dilo me vo rahta
uske jaisa koi nahi tha
ek tha gaaw jaha ka
ek aisa tha raja

He was a king, unlike any other,
Of a village, bound to him as brother.
He was a king, a whisper in the heart,
Torn from none, and from all a part.
None could compare, in deed or art.
Of a village, a single, beating start.
He was a king, a warmth held deep,
Where every soul its vigil kept.
None could compare, in joy or sleep.

In the village, faces, a vibrant bloom,
Like flowers bursting, banishing gloom.
In the village, faces, a vibrant hue,
Like flowers bursting, fresh and new.
The world was filled with joy's embrace,
Love's lamps ignited, time and space.
Each home was his, a haven true,
Equal to all, in all they do.
In joy and sorrow, he’d see them through.
With him, each day a festival's grace.

Of a village, a single, beating start,
He was a king, a work of art.
Of a village, a single, beating start,
He was a king, a work of heart.
He was a king, a whisper in the heart,
Torn from none, and from all a part.
Of a village, a single, beating start,
He was a king, a work of art.
