suniyo araj hamaari prabhuji
suniyo araj hamaari
duniyaa ki is bhari sabhaa mein
rakhiyo laaj muraari
suniyo araj hamaari

tod diyaa adhe haathon ne raam naam ka pyaalaa
jal ke raakh hui re kaanhaa bhakto ki madhushaalaa
suniyo araj hamaari prabhuji
suniyo araj hamaari

paap ke mandir nis din banate jhut ki gagaa bahati
dhamr ki aankhe andhi ho gayi pujaa ho gayi sasti
suniyo araj hamaari prabhuji
suniyo araj hamaari

har man me tum base hue ho jaane ye sasaari
aas milan ki janam janam tak phir bhi rahe kunvaari
suniyo araj hamaari prabhuji
suniyo araj hamaari

Hearken now, my Lord, my plea,
Hearken, Lord, and heed my cry.
In this world's crowded gallery,
Preserve my soul, my Murari, nigh.
Hearken now, my plea.

Dark hands shattered the vessel, Ram's name spilled,
The tavern of devotees, to ashes, willed.
Hearken now, my Lord, my plea,
Hearken, Lord, and heed my cry.
Temples of sin, built day by day,
Rivers of falsehood, sweep and sway.
Blind are the eyes of Dharma's grace,
And worship cheapened, lost its place.
Hearken now, my Lord, my plea,
Hearken, Lord, and heed my cry.

Within each heart, Your presence dwells,
Though worldly souls this secret quell.
The longing for union, birth to birth,
Yet still, the maiden, knows no worth.
Hearken now, my Lord, my plea,
Hearken, Lord, and heed my cry.
