Nil pakhi bale ai ai
/Nil pakhi bale ai ai//Bela jai dekha bela jai/
/Sukhero madira je kareche pan/
/Tahare namaskar/
/Ghire ache jeno satata sethai/
/Sukher andhakar/
The blue bird says,
Come, come.
Time is passing by.
I salute him who has tasted
The wine of pleasure.
Rest assured that in him, around him
Is nothing but the darkness of pleasure-night.
