Hindi Lyrics:
श्याम तेरी बंसी पुकारे राधा नाम
श्याम तेरी बंसी पुकारे राधा नाम
लोग करें मीरा को यूँही बदनाम
श्याम तेरी बंसी पुकारे राधा नाम–2
लोग करें मीरा को यूँही बदनाम
साँवरे की बंसी को बजने से काम
साँवरे की बंसी को बजने से काम
राधा का भी श्याम, वो तो मीरा का भी श्याम
राधा का भी श्याम, वो तो मीरा का भी श्याम
ओ… जमुना की लहरें, बंसीबट की छइयां
किसका नहीं है कहो कृष्ण कन्हैया
ओ… जमुना की लहरें, बंसीबट की छइयां
किसका नहीं है कहो कृष्ण कन्हैया
श्याम का दीवाना तो सारा बृज धाम
लोग करें मीरा को यूँही बदनाम
साँवरे की बंसी को बजने से काम
राधा का भी श्याम, वो तो मीरा का भी श्याम–2
ओ… कौन जाने बांसुरिया किसको बुलाये
जिसके मन भाये, ये उसी के गुण गाये
कौन नहीं है बंसी की धुन का गुलाम
राधा का भी श्याम, वो तो मीरा का भी श्याम
श्याम तेरी बंसी पुकारे राधा नाम
कन्हैया तेरी बंसी पुकारे राधा नाम
लोग करें मीरा को यूँही बदनाम
Hinglish Lyrics:
Shyam teri bansi pukaare Radha naam
Shyam teri bansi pukaare Radha naam
Log karein Meera ko yun hi badnaam
Shyam teri bansi pukaare Radha naam
Log karein Meera ko yun hi badnaam
Saanware ki bansi ko bajne se kaam
Saanware ki bansi ko bajne se kaam
Radha ka bhi Shyam, woh toh Meera ka bhi Shyam
Radha ka bhi Shyam, woh toh Meera ka bhi Shyam
O… Jamuna ki lehrein, bansibat ki chhaiyaan
Kiska nahi hai kaho Krishna Kanhaiya
Shyam ka deewana toh saara Brij dhaam
Log karein Meera ko yun hi badnaam
Saanware ki bansi ko bajne se kaam
Radha ka bhi Shyam, woh toh Meera ka bhi Shyam
O… Kaun jaane baansuriya kisko bulaaye
Jiske mann bhaaye, yeh usi ke gun gaaye
Kaun nahin hai bansi ki dhun ka gulaam
Radha ka bhi Shyam, woh toh Meera ka bhi Shyam
Shyam teri bansi pukaare Radha naam
Kanhaiya teri bansi pukaare Radha naam
Log karein Meera ko yun hi badnaam
