Jyoti kalash chhale, jyoti kalas chhalke
Hue gulabi lal sunahre, rang badal ke
Jyoti kalsh chhalke…1
Ghar aangan van upvan upvan, karti jyoti amrut se sinchan
Mangal ghat dhalke, mangal ghat dhalke
Jyoti kalas chhalke…2
Ambar kumkum fal barsaae, ful pankhudiya par muskaye
Bindu tu hi na jalke, bindu tu hi na jalke
Jyoti kalas chhalke…3
Paat paat birva hariyala, dharti ka mukh hua ujaala
Sach sapne kalke, sach sapne kalke
Jyoti kalash chhalke…4
Usha ne aanchal felaya, feli sukh ki shital chhaya
Neeche aanchal ke, neeche aanchal ke
Jyoti kalash chhalke…5
Jyoti Yashoda dharti gayya, neel gagan Gopal kanhaiyya
Shyamal chhabi jhalke, shyamal chhabi jhalke
Jyoti kalsh chhalke,,,6
