Lyrics in Hindi (Devanagari)
बिल्यूं मेले चालो रे भाई,
बिल्यूं नगर में मेलो भरिजे,
पीर गी संकलाई।。
बिल्यूं नगर गा भक्त शिरोमणि,
सी भक्ति पाई,
चार कूट में नाम बिल्यूं गो,
सी करी है कमाई,
बिल्यूं मेले चालो रे भाई।。
खिराज,बिन्जां,आदू,रुपा,
पीढी चार बताई,
पांचवी पीढी में मनफूल दादो,
सी कला बरताई,
बिल्यूं मेले चालो रे भाई।。
भादवा सुदी पांचूं के दिन,
बहोत दुकाना आई,
चानणी छट गा आवे जातरी,
सात्यूं गी धोक लगाई,
बिल्यूं मेले चालो रे भाई।。
ढोल डेरू बाजै मेले में,
भगतां छड़ी समाई,
नेजां ऊपर धजा फरूंके,
गुगन छांवली गाई,
बिल्यूं मेले चालो रे भाई।。
बिल्यूं मेले चालो रे भाई,
बिल्यूं नगर में मेलो भरिजे,
पीर गी संकलाई।。
