Uncle Moon so far away,
jaggery donut cooked for the day,
You come and eat in the courtyard,
for Baby, a cup is prepared.
Uncle moon afar, twinkling star,
Please come on the river banks, near or far,
Please bring rice and milk porridge in a golden pot,
So that baby takes a sip, with a quiet strut,
Sweetness in his mouth, like a secret hut.
Hush, little baby, don't you cry,
Momma's gonna sing you a lullaby.
With stars above and dreams so sweet,
Drift away on a cloud, my sweet.
