| Sthayi | बस किनो बाट चलत जिया पिया मोरा | Bas kino baat chalat jiya piya mora | My beloved captured my heart as I walked along the path. |
| Sthayi | बस किनो मोरि आली सुघर पियाने | Bas kino mori aali sughar piyaane | My friend, the graceful beloved brought me under his spell. |
| Sthayi | कछु जादु किनो बाट चलत जिया पिया मोरा | Kachhu jaadu kino baat chalat jiya piya mora | My beloved worked some magic on my heart as I walked along the path. |
| Antara | ऐसो टोना किनो मोहे सुध बिसराई | Aiso tona kino mohe sudh bisaraai | Such a spell was cast that I forgot myself. |
| Antara | बाट घाट मन हर लिनो | Baat ghaat man har lino | On paths and at the waterside, my heart was stolen. |
| Antara | बाट चलत जिया पिया मोरा | Baat chalat jiya piya mora | Along the path, my heart, my beloved. |
Word notes
Bas kino describes being brought under another’s sway. Jaadu and tona cast attraction as enchantment, while sudh bisaraai is forgetting one’s own awareness. Baat ghaat broadens the encounter across paths and waterside places.
