Maalti gundhaaye kesh pyaare gulgubaare 
In your locks of hair, there is a fragrance of roses
Mukh damini si damakata chaal matwaari
Your face is bright and your walk captivating
Chaal matwaari, chaal matwaari
Your walk captivating

Dhaai shaam rok lai, rok lai, rok lai
Lord Krishna spoke to me
Dhaai shaam rok lai, aur chakmaka mukh choom lai
Lord Krishna suddenly kissed me on my face
Mukh choom lai, mukh choom lai
Kissed my face, kissed my face
Sar se mori chunari gayi, gayi, gayi
My scarf slipped from my head
Sar se mori chunari gayi sarak sarak sarak
My scarf fell from my head
Sarak sarak sarak, sarak sarak sarak
falling, falling, falling

Kaahe chhed, chhed mohe garwa lagaayi  
Why does he tease me so
Kaahe chhed, chhed mohe
Why does he tease me so
Nanda ko laal aiso dheet (x2)
He is so mean and stubborn
Barbas mori laaj leeni, laaj leeni, laaj leeni
He stole my honour 
Barbas mori laaj leeni
He stole honor from me
Brindashaam maanat naahi, brindashaam maanat naahi
He doesn't listen to me, He doesn't listen to me
Kaase kahoon main apne jiya ki soonat naahi maayi
How should I tell my soul that he doesn't listen to me
Kaahe chhed, chhed mohe
Why does the Lord tease me so

Dadh ki bhari matki, dadh ki bhari matki
A vessel replete with butter
Dadh ki bhari matki lai jaata rahi dagar beech
I was walking with a vessel replete with butter 
Aahat sun, aahat sun
On listening to some steps
Aahat sun jiyara gayo dhadak dhadak dhadak
On listening to some steps, my heart started beating quickly
Dhadak dhadak dhadak, dhadak dhadak dhadak
The tumult lasting for a while

Kaahe chhede, chhede chhede mohe
Why does he tease me so
Kar pakadata choodiyaan sab karki karki karki karki
He caught held my bangles and broke them
Kar pakadata choodiyaan sab karki karki karki
He held my bangles and broke them
O maayi
Oh Mother
Brindashaam maanat naahi, brindashaam maanat naahi
He doesn't listen to me, He doesn't listen to me
Kaase kahoon main apne jiya ki soonat naahi maayi
How should I tell my soul that the Lord doesn't listen to me
Kaahe chhed, chhed mohe
Why does he tease me so
Kaahe chhed, chhed mohe
