सुन महादेवा हो, मेरे भोले बाबा, सुन महादेवा…..
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से भोले…….

सुन महादेवा हो, जटा गंगाधारी, सुन महादेवा,
तूनें ने काहे को जोग ये ले लो
तूने काहे को जोग ये ले लो,
तूने काहे को धूणी रमाला रे भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से भोले…….

सुन महादेवा हो, भगत करें सेवा, सुन महादेवा,
तेरी लीला है अजब निराली,
तेरी लीला है अजब निराली,
तेरी महिमा कोई ना जाने रे भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से भोले……

सुन महादेवा हो, जटा गंगाधारी, सुन महादेवा,
तेरी जटा में गंग बिराजी,
तेरी जटा में गंग बिराजी,
तोहे भस्मी अंग है लागी रे भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से भोले….

सुन महादेवा हो, भगत करे सेवा, सुन महादेवा,
तू बैठा मलंग रे जोगी,
तू बैठा मलंग रे जोगी,
तेरे द्वारें पे आये रे योगी रे भोलेबाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा,
मेरे भोले से, भोले बाबा, भोले बाबा, मेरे भोले से भोले….
