(O my dear Data ‘Ganj Baksh')
mire daata piya auliya (O my dear Data ‘Ganj Baksh')
main jab dekhoon tab sang hai (Whenever I look, he’s with me!)
ri maan rang hai ri (Mother! There is ‘colour'!)
aaj rang hai ri maan rang hai ri (Today, there is ‘colour', Mother!
There is ‘colour'!)
khusro rain suhaag ki (Khusrau, the wedding night…)
jaagi pi ke sang … (I spent awake with my beloved)
tan mora man preetam ka (My body and my beloved’s soul)
donon aik hi rang (The colour of both became one)
ay maai ke deewaro (O lamps of clay!)
jo suniyo mori baat (If you listen to what I say)
aaj khaaja ghar rang hai (Today, there is ‘colour' at my Khwaja’s home)
tum jagyo sari raat (So stay awake, gleaming, throughout the night!)
aiso rang aur naaheen dekhoon kaheen bhi main (Such a ‘colour' I have never
seen anywhere else!)
main to aiso rang aur naaheen dekhoon kaheen bhi (I have never seen such a
‘colour' anywhere else!)
mujhe apne hi rang men rang le khaaja ji (Dye me in your own hue, Khwaja!)
mohe rang basanti rang de khaaja ji (Dye me the mustard-yellow of spring,
Khwaja!)
mohe apne hi rang men rang le khaaja ji (Dye me in your own hue, Khwaja!)
jo tu maange rang ki rangaai (If you ask a fee for the dying)
mora joban girwi rakh le khaaja ji (Accept my budding youth as pledge, Khwaja)
mora joban girwi rakh le (Accept my budding youth as a pledge)
