Sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep.
The cool east wind whispers, sleep, Krishna, my love.
How can I come, fear grips me, my rival awakens.
Sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep.
The cool east wind whispers, sleep, Krishna, my love.
How can I come, fear grips me, my rival awakens.

The world, an enemy's gaze, on me, shame's cruel siege.
The world, an enemy's gaze, on me, shame's cruel siege.
Love's desire burns bright, yet from the world, I take flight.
My heart yearns to be, close to you, eternally.
Sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep.

Bhamā asks, my love, how can I come?
How can I escape Rukmini's gaze, overcome?
Bhamā asks, my love, how can I come?
How can I escape Rukmini's gaze, overcome?
She is cunning, so sly, blocking my path, nearby.
My soul is trapped, alas, all pathways are now surpassed.
Sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep.

May God grant my wish, that my rival's sleep, I now embrace.
May God grant my wish, that my rival's sleep, I now embrace.
Lost in dreams, she’ll fade, and sleep will pervade, then union will be made.
O, my beloved, my dear, sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep, sleep now, sleep.
The cool east wind whispers, sleep, Krishna, my love.
How can I come, fear grips me, my rival awakens.
