Lyrics -

Tu kaaro teri Jamuna Kari
(You’re dark, and so is the river Yamuna)

Kare munde de lori
(Dusky boys are singing lullabies)

Radha Poochhe sab sakhiyan se
(As Radha ask her friends)

Karo krishan dekhyo ri
(If they have seen her beloved Krishna)

Mai Lori Deva
(I sing my lullaby oh Lord)

Mai Sadke Jawa
(I shall sacrifice everything for him)

Mai Lori Deva Nidre Meethe Baal ko
(I sing my lullaby to the sweet child)

Mai Sadke Jawa Nidre Meethe Baal ko
(I shall sacrifice everything for the sweet child)

Hun Jaago jaago jaago
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)

Krishna kanhaiya jaago
(Oh Lord Krishna wake up)

Teri maa lori deve
(Your mother is singing a lullaby for you)

Teri behn lori deve
(Your sister is singing a lullaby for you)

Tane Hururu

Mai Lori Deva Nidre Meethe Baal ko
(I sing my lullaby to the sweet child)

Main sadke jaawa nihre meethe baalko
(I shall sacrifice everything for the sweet child)

Hun Jaago jaago jaago
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)

Krishna kanhaiya jaago
(Oh Lord Krishna wake up)

Kunwar kanhaiya jaago
(Oh Lord Krishna wake up)

Teri maa lori deve
(Your mother is singing lullaby for you)

Teri behen lori deve
(Your sister is singing lullaby for you)

Mai Lori Deva Nidre Meethe Baal ko

(I shall sacrifice everything for the sweet child)

Haine hururu

Krishna kanhaiya mathuraji me janmyo
(Krishna Kanhaiya was born in Mathura)

Maiya yashoda jhoolda jhulayo
(Mother Yashoda lets him play on the swing)

Main sadke jaawa nihre meethe baalko
(I shall sacrifice everything for the sweet child)

Main lori deva nider meethe baalko
(I sing my lullaby to the sweet child)

Hun Jaago jaago jaago
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)

Oh Lord Krishna wake up

Main lori deva nider meethe baalko
(I sing my lullaby to the sweet child)
