Lyrics

धुंद मधुमती रात रे नाथ रे

तनमन नाचे, यौवन नाचे

उगवला रजनीचा नाथ रे

Dhunda madhumatī rāta re nātha re

Tana-mana nāçe, yauvana nāçe

Ugavalā rajanīçā nātha re

An engrossed night of sweetness, man! Lord, man!

Body and mind dance, youth dances

The night's lord has risen, man!

जललहरी या धीट धावती

हरित तटांचे ओठ चुम्बिती

येई प्रियकरा, येई मन्दिरा, अलि रमले कमलांत रे

Jala-laharī yā dhīṭa dhāvatī

Harita taṭāṃçe oṭha cumbitī

Yeī priyakarā, yeī mandirā, ali ramale kamalāṃta re

These watery waves boldly run

Green banks' lips they kiss

Come, lover, come to the palace, bees have delighted in lotuses, man!

ये रे ये, का मग दूर उभा? ही घटिकाही निसटुनी जायची

फुलतील लाखो तारा परि ही रात कधी कधी ना यायची

चषक सुधेचा ओठी लावुनी कटिभवती धरी हात रे

Ye re ye, kā maga dūra ubhā? Hī ghaṭikāhī nisaṭunī zāyacī

Phulatīla lākho tārā pari hī rāta kadhī kadhī nā yāyacī

Caṣaka sudheçā oṭhī lāvunī kaṭibhavatī dharī hāta re

Come, man, come! Why then stand afar? Even this hour will slip away

Countless stars will bloom, but this night will never ever come back

Putting the cup of ambrosia to lips, round my hips hold your hands, man!
