| Sthayi | कान्ह करत मोसे रार एरि माई | Kanha karat mose raar eri maai | O mother, Kanha quarrels with me. |
| Sthayi | अब ही जाय कहूं जसोदा घर | Ab hi jaay kahun Jasoda ghar | I will go to Jasoda’s home right now and tell her. |
| Sthayi | लंगर झगर मोरि गगरि दिनि डार | Langar jhagar mori gagari dini daar | That rogue quarrels with me and has thrown down my pitcher. |
| Antara | मैं दधि बेचन जात बिंद्राबन | Main dadhi bechan jaat Bindraban | I was going to Bindraban to sell curd. |
| Antara | आन अचानक तुम रोकार | Aan achaanak tum rokaar | You suddenly came and stopped me. |
| Antara | बाट घाट में रोकत टोकत | Baat ghaat men rokat tokat | You obstruct and accost me on the roads and at the ghats. |
| Antara | अपने चतुर कों लीजे संभार | Apne Chatur kon lije sambhaar | Take care of your own Chatur. |
