They are better than you!

राती जागे शेख सदा मैं, ते राती जागे कुत्ते, तैं थी उत्ते
दर मालिक दा मूल न छड़दे, पावें सौ-सौ पौंदे जुत्ते, तैं थी उत्ते
रुखी सुखी रोटी खान्दैं, अत्ते जागरे तै सुत्ते, तैं थी उत्ते
चल वे मियां बुल्लेया, चल यार मना ले
नहीं ते बाज़ी ले गए कुत्ते, , तैं थी उत्ते

You keep awake at night and consider yourself pious
But (Bulleya) even dogs stay awake the whole night,they are better than you!
They do not leave the door of the master, even if beaten, they are better than you!
They eat the leftovers and stale food, they are better than you!
Come on Bulleya, let's go and pacify the Almighty
Otherwise the dogs steal the game, they are better than you!
