Lyrics in Hindi (Devanagari)
थे रुस्या तो,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी,
बाबुल के रु्या टाबरिया,
बोलो काई करसी,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी,
टाबरिया की नादानी,
म्हे तो भुलानो पड़सी,
थे रुस्यां तो,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी।。
थारो म्हारो प्रेम पुराणो,
कुछ तो सोचो विचारो,
भूल गया के ओ बाबा जी,
मैं हूं टाबर थारो,
थे भुल्या पर मैं तो बाबा,
थारो हूं बस थारो,
था बिन ई भोला बालक की,
बोलो कुण सुनसी,
थे रुस्यां तो,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी।。
मानो मिजाजी अब तो मानो,
कद से थाने मनावा,
थारी हाजरी रोज बजावा,
थारा हुक्म उठावा,
म्हारी पागड़ी थारे चरण में,
मैं तो शीश झुकावा,
इतनी आंख्यां तो और कठे,
म्हारी कोनी बरसी,
थे रुस्यां तो,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी।。
सुन टाबर की बातां सारी,
बोल्या श्याम मुरारी,
मैं तो बस तेरो प्रेम टटोलू,
जीव करे मत भारी,
क्यों भूले रे बावलिया तू,
मेरी जिम्मेदारी,
खाली झोली ‘गोलू’ तेरी,
जल्दी भरसी,
म्हे रुस्या तो,
मेरी कोणी सरसी।。
थे रुस्या तो,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी,
बाबुल के रु्या टाबरिया,
बोलो काई करसी,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी,
टाबरिया की नादानी,
म्हे तो भुलानो पड़सी,
थे रुस्यां तो,
म्हारे कइयां सरसी।。
English Transliteration
The rusya to,
Mhare kaiya sarsi,
Babul ke ruthya tabariya,
Bolo kai karsi,
Mhare kaiya sarsi,
Tabariya ki nadani,
Mhe to bhulano padsi,
The rusyan to,
Mhare kaiya sarsi.
Tharo mharo prem purano,
Kuch to socho vicharo,
Bhul gaya ke o baba ji,
Main hu tabar tharo,
The bhulya par main to baba,
Tharo hu bas tharo,
Tha bin ee bhola balak ki,
Bolo kun sunsi,
The rusyan to,
Mhare kaiya sarsi.
Mano mijaji ab to mano,
Kad se thane manava,
Thari hazari roz bajava,
Thara hukm uthava,
Mhari pagdi thare charan me,
Main to shish jhukava,
Itani aankhan to aur kathe,
Mhari koni barsi,
The rusyan to,
Mhare kaiya sarsi.
Sun tabar ki batan sari,
Bolya shyam murari,
Main to bas tero prem ttolu,
Jiv kare mat bhari,
Kyoon bhule re bawaliya tu,
Meri jimmedari,
Khalli jhori ‘golu’ teri,
Jaldi bharasi,
Mhe rusya to,
Meri kuni sarsi.
The rusya to,
Mhare kaiya sarsi,
Babul ke ruthya tabariya,
Bolo kai karsi,
Mhare kaiya sarsi,
Tabariya ki nadani,
Mhe to bhulano padsi,
The rusyan to,
Mhare kaiya sarsi.
