English Transliteration :
Mitti da main bawa banani aan, ve jhagga paani aan, ve utte deni aan khesi ,
Soun ja mitti diaa baawiaa, ve tera pio pardesi |
Mitti da bawa nahion bolda, nahion chaalda , naan hi denda e hungaara ,
Na ro mitti deaa baawiaa, ve tera pio vanjaara |
kade taan main launi aan tahliaan , ve pattaan vaaleean , ve mera patla maahi ,
kade launi aan shaihtoot , ve tainu samajh na aave |
Mere jehiaaN lakhkh goriaaN ,ve tanee doriaaN ,haae godee baal hindole ,
Hass hass dendiaaN loreeaan, haae mere ladan sapole |

English Translation :

I craft a little clay doll, make it wear little shirt, cover it with a blanket..
Don't cry little clay doll, Your Dad is abroad..

My little clay doll does not speak, does not respond ..
Don't cry little clay doll, Your Dad is a vagabond..

I planted the sheesham trees, they grew lovely leaves,aah my beloved..
I planted the trees of shehtoot. why don't you correspond..

The other women of the town, as pretty as me, have kids in there lap..
Sing them lullabies , and my soul is snakes playground.
