  1. Verse 1

    (refrain) sandeso devakī sau kahiyo hun to dhai tihari suta kī maiyā karata yeh rahiyo

    (refrain) sandeso devaki sau kahiyo hun to dhai tihari suta ki maiya karata yeh rahiyo

    (रेfरैन्) सन्देसो देवकी सौ कहियो हुन तो धै तिहरि सुत की मैया करत येह रहियो

    “Even though you know about His habits, you still ask me about his habits. In the morning, my darling is difficult to please and gets angry. He is pacified when offered capatis and butter.”

  2. Verse 1

    yadyapi ṭeva jānati unakī tau mohi kahioye prātaḥ hota mere lālana rūṭhe mākhana roṭi bhave

    yadyapi teva janati unaki tau mohi kahioye pratah hota mere lalana ruthe makhana roti bhave

    यद्यपि टेव जानति उनकी तौ मोहि कहिओये प्रातः होत मेरे लालन रूठे माखन रोटि भवे

    “Even though you know about His habits, you still ask me about his habits. In the morning, my darling is difficult to please and gets angry. He is pacified when offered capatis and butter.”

  3. Verse 2

    tela upaṭa no karu dāṭuṅ jala kahi dekhi bhaji jāti joī joī māngata soī soī detī rama grama karite nahāte

    tela upata no karu datun jala kahi dekhi bhaji jati joi joi mangata soi soi deti rama grama karite nahate

    तेल उपट नो करु दाटुङ जल कहि देखि भजि जाति जोई जोई मान्गत सोई सोई देती रम ग्रम करिते नहाते

    “When He sees hot water, soap, and scented bathing oils, he gets scared and hides. Whatever He asks, I only give in bribe so He can finally have a bath.”

  4. Verse 3

    sūra pathika suni mohi raina dina baḍo reheka ḍara soca mere āunaka laḍai to mohana vai hai karate saṅkoce

    sura pathika suni mohi raina dina bado reheka dara soca mere aunaka ladai to mohana vai hai karate sankoce

    सूर पथिक सुनि मोहि रैन दिन बडो रेहेक डर सोच मेरे आउनक लडै तो मोहन वै है करते सङ्कोचे

    Sura Dasa says, “O Messenger, in night and day, I am overwhelmed with fear. My curly haired enamoring is now hesitating to call me ‘Mother.’”
