lakh mana kar le ye nadaan zamaana
shamma pe jal jaayega o parwana diwana
shamma pe jal jaayega o parwana diwana
shamma pe jal jaayega
ruswa na hoga ulfat ka afsana
main pyar nibhaungi chahe pade mar jana
main pyar nibhaungi
o soniye ni hiriye
o soniya ve hiriya

jhumate hai jhumke arey jab tere kaano me
to dolati hai mere dil ki naiya tufano me
to dolati hai mere dil ki o naiya tufano me
to dolati hai mere dil ki
bas ja tu mere dil ke gulishtaano me
ke phul khil jate hai dil ke armaano me
ke phul khil jate hai dil ke armaano me
ke phul khil jate hai
o soniye ni hiriye
o soniya ve hiriya

ek pal bhi na sahi jaye teri judai
mile jo tere badale to thukara du main khudai
mile jo tere badale to thukara du main khudai
mile jo tere badale to
tere naam ke hi geet sada main gaati
jo milti sau bar zindagi tujhpe hi main lutati
jo milti sau bar zindagi tujhpe hi main lutati
jo milti sau baar zindagi
o soniye ni hiriye
o soniya ve hiriya

Though the world may forbid, a fool's heart knows,
A moth to the flame, where love's fire glows.
A moth to the flame, where love's fire glows,
A moth to the flame.
Scandal won't touch this tale that love bestows,
I'll keep faith's promise, even if death shows.
I'll keep faith's promise.
Oh, my love, my beloved,
Oh, my gold, my diamond.

Your earrings swing, and the rhythm takes hold,
My heart's ship dances in tempests untold.
My heart's ship dances in tempests untold,
My heart's ship dances.
Dwell in my heart's garden, let stories unfold,
Where desire's flowers bloom, brave and bold.
Where desire's flowers bloom, brave and bold,
Where desire's flowers.
Oh, my love, my beloved,
Oh, my gold, my diamond.

Not a moment can I bear, far from your face,
If you are the price, I'd scorn all grace.
If you are the price, I'd scorn all grace,
If you are the price.
Your name, my song, I forever embrace,
If life I had a hundred times, I'd choose this place.
If life I had a hundred times, I'd choose this place,
If life I had.
Oh, my love, my beloved,
Oh, my gold, my diamond.
