Gunga Ghana

(Dohā) Gānā merā jādū baṛī, suna lo merā dushmanī;
Kān kholo merā gānā ko, mai’ hū’ terā guru gyānī.
My song has powerful magic, listen to me my enemies.
Close your ears to my song, I am your teacher of wisdom.

1. Sab parivār kuchor manāve; sab parivār kuchor manāve.
   (Refrain) Gūngā gānā gā…ve, gūngā gānā gāve! (2)
   Sab parivār kuchur manāve; sab parivār kuchur manāve.
   Gūngā gānā gā…ve, gūngā gānā gāve! (2) (ĀĪŪṛāīū)

The whole family is celebrating the recovery, (all are celebrating).
The mute (dumb) one is singing a song, (yeah – singing a song).

1. Bāp mar gaye besharam se; māī karata gumāna re. (2)
   Betī dūsar gānā gāte (2); lāj sharam nahī’ āte hai. (Refrain)
   The father died shamelessly, the mother beams with pride.
   The daughter sings another song, shame doesn’t come to her.

2. Is parivār kuchor karte hai; sab se karte abhimān re. (2)
   Ghar ghar jā ke nīnd karate hai (2); gānā ghumāna gāte hai.(Ref)
   This family is now whole (cured), they are proud of everyone.
   (Just) go home and sleep, sing the song with pride.

3. Dūsar janame bhaisā hoibo; mānush janam nahī’ paibo. (2)
   Dubrāj (Yuvrāj) merā nām hai (2); sab parivār ghumāna de. (Ref)
   In my other life I was a buffalo; don’t take human birth for granted.

Crown Prince is my name; give the entire family a chance.

Another version – as sung by Dubraj Persad (Prashad) also.
