refrain
येई हो विठ्ठले माझे माऊली ये
Yei ho Viththale majhe mauli ye
Come, O Vitthal, my dear mother, come
निढळावरी कर ठेऊनी वाट मी पाहे
Nidhalavari kar theuni vat mi pahe
with my hand upon my brow, I keep watching the road for you
verse 1
आलिया गेलिया हाती धाडी निरोप
Aliya geliya hati dhadi nirop
with everyone who comes and goes I send you a message
पंढरपुरी आहे माझा मायबाप
Pandharapuri ahe majha mayabap
in Pandharpur dwells my mother and father, my all
refrain
येई हो विठ्ठले माझे माऊली ये
Yei ho Viththale majhe mauli ye
Come, O Vitthal, my dear mother, come
verse 2
पिवळा पीतांबर कैसा गगनी झळकला
Pivala pitambar kaisa gagani jhalakala
how the yellow silk robe gleamed across the sky
गरुडावरी बैसून माझा कैवारी आला
Garudavari baisun majha kaivari ala
seated upon Garuda, my protector has come
refrain
येई हो विठ्ठले माझे माऊली ये
Yei ho Viththale majhe mauli ye
Come, O Vitthal, my dear mother, come
verse 3
विठोबाचे राज आम्हां नित्य दिपवाळी
Vithobace raj amhan nitya dipaval
Vithoba's reign is a perpetual Diwali for us
विष्णुदास नामा जीवेंभावे ओंवाळी
Vishnudas Nama jivembhave ovalee
Vishnudas Nama offers the aarti with all his heart and soul
refrain
येई हो विठ्ठले माझे माऊली ये
Yei ho Viththale majhe mauli ye
Come, O Vitthal, my dear mother, come
