lo chali mai
lo chali mai apne devar ki
barat le ke lo chali mai

lo chali mai apne devar ki
barat le ke lo chali mai
naa band baja naa hi barati
khushiyo ki saugat le ke
lo chali mai apne devar ki
barat le ke lo chali mai

devar dulha bana sar pe sehra saja
bhabhi badhkar aaj balaiya leti hai
prem ki kaliya khile
pal pal khushiya mile
sachche man se aaj duwaye deti hai
ghode pe chadh ke, chala hai banka
apani dulhan se milne, lo chali mai
lo chali mai apne devar ki
barat le ke lo chali mai

waha waha ramji jodi kya banayi
devar devraniji, badhayi ho badhayi
sab rasmo se badi hai jag me
dil se dil ki sagayi

aai hai shubh ghadi, aaj bani mai badi
kal tak ghar ki bahu thi abb hu jethani
hukum chalaungi mai aankh dikhaungi mai
sehmi khadi rahegi meri devrani
hajar sapne palko me apne
divani mai sath le ke lo chali mai
lo chali mai apne devar ki
barat le ke lo chali mai

They departed, offering no comfort, only the void,
A moon that vanished, leaving no light deployed.

Parted from them, we yearn for death's embrace,
Yet even death evades us, in this desolate space.

Oh, time of love, spare us this trial of grief,
We weep, though unspoken the name we believe.

Joy, a beggar we never could find,
But sorrow, a harvest, we gather, undesigned.
