| Sthayi | न मानुँगी न मानुँगी न मानुँगी | Na maanungi na maanungi na maanungi | I shall not agree, I shall not agree, I shall not agree. |
| Sthayi | मैं तो उन्हीं के मनाये बिना | Main to unhin ke manaaye bina | I, for one—not without his persuasion. |
| Antara | जाओ जि जाओ जि सखि वे तो अपने | Jaao ji jaao ji sakhi ve to apne | Go, please go, friend; he is absorbed in his own— |
| Antara | रस के रसिया न जाऊंगी न जाऊंगी न जाऊंगी | Ras ke rasiya na jaaungi na jaaungi na jaaungi | pleasures. I shall not go, I shall not go, I shall not go. |
| Antara | मैं तो उन्हीं के मनाये बिना | Main to unhin ke manaaye bina | I, for one—not without his persuasion. |
Word notes
Manaaye means to persuade or coax someone into agreement. Rasiya describes someone absorbed in enjoyment or feeling. The repeated refusals give force to the speaker’s resolve.
