lyrics

साजन मोरेघर आये,
अति मन सखु पावे।
मंगल गाओ, चौख पराओु
प्रेम पिया हम पावे।

Saajan More Ghar Aaye (My lover has returned home)
Ati Man Sukh Paave (Relief washes over my heart)
Mangal Gavo Chaukh puravo (Sing praises, decorate the house!)
Prem Piya Ham Paave (I have received their love with bliss)
