नाही वेचला दाम आ
विकत घेतला श्याम
बाई मी विकत घेतला श्याम
बाई मी विकत घेतला श्याम
आ आ आ आ
कुणी म्हणे ही असेल चोरी
कुणी म्हणे ही असेल चोरी
कुणा वाटते असे उधारी
जन्मभरीच्या श्वासाइतुके
मोजियले हरिनाम
मोजियले हरिनाम
विकत घेतला श्याम
बाई मी विकत घेतला श्याम

बाळ गुराखी यमुनेवरचा
गुलाम काळा संता घरचा
बाळ गुराखी यमुनेवरचा
गुलाम काळा संता घरचा
हाच तुक्याचा विठ्ठल आणि
दासाचा श्रीराम

The song "Bai Mee Vikat Ghetala Sham" sung by Asha Bhosle is about the struggle of a woman who has faced a lot of hardship in her life. The lyrics are in Marathi, a regional language spoken in the state of Maharashtra in India. In the beginning, the lyrics describe how the woman did not spend money on fancy clothes or ornaments, but was rather cheated on her payments. She has bought her husband (Shyam) instead. The repetition of the lines "Bai Mee Vikat Ghetala Shyam" emphasizes her point.
As the song continues, the lyrics talk about how people may accuse her of stealing or borrowing things, but no one knows about the turmoil she has endured in her life. Her devotion to the Lord (Hari) has helped her through those struggles. The mention of "Gulam Kala Santa Gharacha" describes the socio-economic status of the woman and her family.
Further on, the lyrics talk about the names people give to things they possess, but one cannot name the love in one's heart. The final lines, "Deen Anath Anam, Vikat Ghetla Shyam, Bai Mee Vikat Ghetala Shyam" signifies her struggles and longing for peace and solace.

नाही खर्चीली कवडी दमडी
I did not spend on the bamboo basket
नाही वेचला दाम आ
I did not sell it for a price
विकत घेतला श्याम
I got it in exchange for Lord Krishna
बाई मी विकत घेतला श्याम
I am the woman who got Lord Krishna in exchange
कुणी म्हणे ही असेल चोरी
Some might call it stealing
कुणा वाटते असे उधारी
Others might say it was a loan
जन्मभरीच्या श्वासाइतुके
My every breath is devoted to Lord Krishna
मोजियले हरिनाम
I have chanted His name with every breath
बाळ गुराखी यमुनेवरचा
I am like Bal Gopal (child form of Lord Krishna) on the banks of Yamuna river
गुलाम काळा संता घरचा
I am like a dark-skinned slave in the house of a saint
हाच तुक्याचा विठ्ठल आणि
I worship Lord Vithoba (incarnation of Lord Vishnu)
दासाचा श्रीराम
And Lord Ram, who is the servant of his devotees
जितके मालक तितकी नावे
As many owners, so many names
हृदये तितकी याची गावे
But in my heart, only Lord Krishna's name is sung
कुणी न ओळखी तरीही याला
Even if no one recognizes me, I know Him
दीन अनाथ अनाम
I am poor, helpless, and without a name
विकत घेतला श्याम
But I have received Lord Krishna in exchange
बाई मी विकत घेतला श्याम
And I am the woman who got Him in exchange
