sakhi ri mori tike na nazariya
sakhi ri mori tike na nazariya
sakhi ri mori tike na nazariya
abhi talak maii samjh na payi
kaun rang bake sawariya
tike na nazariya

koi kahe kare koi kahe sawre
koi kahe kare koi kahe sawre
mai bawriya nain more bhanwre
koi kahe sawre
main dekhu nirale lage mohe
kari ghata me cham cham chamke bijuriya
jaise cham cham chamke bijuriya
dikhi na najariya

Friend, my gaze, it cannot settle,
Friend, my gaze, it cannot settle,
Friend, my gaze, it cannot settle.
Till now, I have failed to fathom,
The hue of that dark Beloved.
My gaze cannot settle.

Some say dark, some say dusky,
Some say dark, some say dusky.
I, a madwoman, my eyes, wild,
Some say dusky.
I see a different splendor,
Like lightning in the blackest cloud,
Like lightning in the blackest cloud.
My gaze, it cannot settle.
