jab ghadi bole char gori karke singar
chali aana us par bolo pakki
saiya karo eitbar mai hu aisi hoshiyar
jab baje pone char aau nakhi
jab ghadi bole char

kahti pone char hai par aati sade sat hai
arey kahti pone char hai par aati sade sat hai
bole bhi to kya bole tu aurat ki jat hai
o ho kare ulti ulti bat
kare ulti ulti bat kahe din kabhi rat
jana bolo tere sath tu hai jhakki
jab ghadi bole char gori karke singar
chali aana us par bolo pakki
jab ghadi bole char

wade karke talna bas tera to ye kam hai
tu kya jane pyar bhi kis chidiya ka naam hai
o ho meri bate nahi khel
o meri bate nahi khel sacha hai ye dil ka mail
teri khatir jau jal pisu chakki
saiya karo etbar mai hu aisi hoshiyar
jab baje pone char aau nakhi
jab ghadi bole char

yu na khota jaan ri tu hum mardo
ki bat ko ha samjhi
yu na khota jaan ri tu hum mardo
tu bole aau mai paidal aadhi rat ko
o ho achha mani teri bat thanku
achha mani teri bat to phir de hatho me hath
hoga tera mera sath bada lucky
jab ghadi bole char gori karke singar
chali aana us par bolo pakki
saiya karo etbar mai hu aisi hoshiyar
jab baze pone char aau nakhi
jab ghadi bole char

When the clock strikes four, Gauri, adorned,
Across the river, you promised to be.
Believe, my love, in my cunning, you'll be assured,
When quarter to four tolls, I'll arrive, you'll see.
When the clock strikes four.

She says quarter to four, but seven-thirty she'll embrace,
She says quarter to four, arriving late, it's true.
What can she say, this woman of the race?
She speaks only twisted words to you.
Oh, she speaks in twisted ways,
Turns day to night, in her haze.
Go, with you, she'll stray, a madcap through and through.
When the clock strikes four, Gauri, adorned,
Across the river, you promised to be.
When the clock strikes four.

Promises broken, that's your game,
Do you even know what love's true name?
Oh, my words are not a jest,
My words are not a jest, this heart's honest test.
For you, I'd face the jail, grind the mill's behest.
Believe, my love, in my cunning, you'll be assured,
When quarter to four tolls, I'll arrive, you'll see.
When the clock strikes four.

Don't misjudge, my dear, the words men say,
Don't misjudge, my dear, the words men say,
You say, I'll walk in the dark, at midnight's sway?
Oh, well then, I accept your words, thank you, come what may!
Oh, well then, I accept your words, and in hand we'll stay
Then give me your hand, in union we'll play,
Our fate will be blessed, and our souls will always stay.
When the clock strikes four, Gauri, adorned,
Across the river, you promised to be.
Believe, my love, in my cunning, you'll be assured,
When quarter to four tolls, I'll arrive, you'll see.
When the clock strikes four.
