Ago, ago Bhoiru, tuje vinnem
Hai, hai Bhoiru, without you,
Sukh(u) mhaka nã, sukh(u) mhaka nã.
I have no happiness, I have no happiness.

I own property worth sixty thousand rupees,
Tacho tivantto tuk' go di-in(u)
I can give you one third of the above,
Tachea velean(u) tuk' hanv sustentar korin(u).
To support you by its incombe.
