he goriya re he chhoriya re
chhanka de payaliya re
o ye gora gora chhora
he, ye gora gora chhora nahi mane meri baat
logo ke aage thame bairi dekho mera hath
haye re haye kya karu, haye re haye kya karu
na bhang maine khayi na daru maine pee
ishq hi kiya hai chori to nahi ki
kyu daru kyu daru, kyu daru kyu daru
ye gora gora chhora

sarifo ka hai ye mohalla piya
mohalle me kar na yu halla piya
are ho ho o
tujhe maine chaha tujhe dil diya
mohalle ka maine bura kya kiya
are ho o ho ho
na mauka koi dekhe na dekhe tu ghadi
deewana mujhe samjhe deewani ladki
haye re kare kyu badnami tu mere ghar ki
kare kyu badnami tu mere ghar ki
kahe to ghar tere hoye hoye hoye
kahe to ghar tere abhi le aau barat
kahe to ghar tere abhi le aau barat
haye re haye kya karu, haye re haye kya karu
ye gora gora chhora

to ye dhang hai mere mahbub ke
to dariya me mar jaungi dub ke
are ho o ho ho
kudi tere dushman mare doob ke
ni lag ja gale aa ke mahabub ke
are ho o ho ho
ho achho se mai acchi buro se mai buri
mare wo bate jo aisi kare besuri
aa aa aa aa to wada kar ab na satayega kabhi
to wada kar ab na satayega kabhi
sataunga mai warna ae ae ae
sataunga mai warna jhat se fere kar le sat
sataunga mai warna jhat se fere kar le sat
haye re haye kya karu, haye re haye kya karu
ye gora gora chhora nahi mane meri baat
logo ke aage thame bairi dekho mera haath
haye re haye kya karu, haye re haye kya karu
na bhang maine khayi na daru maine pee
ishq hi kiya hai chori to nahi ki
kyu daru kyu daru, kyu daru kyu daru
ye gora gora chhora

Oh, fair maiden, oh, fair youth,
Let your anklets sing their truth.
This pale-skinned lad, so bold and bright,
He defies my every right.
Before the world, he holds my hand,
A foe, I cannot understand.
Oh, what to do, what to do,
I've tasted no bhang, no liquor true,
Only love, no stolen deed,
Why fear, why fear, plant this seed?
This pale-skinned lad, so bold and bright.

This is a place of the upright, love,
Don't make a scene, from up above.
Oh ho ho, oh ho ho
My heart I gave, my love I gave,
What wrong have I done, to misbehave?
Oh ho ho, oh ho ho
No chance he seeks, no clock he sees,
They call him mad, me, a crazy tease.
Why bring this shame upon my home?
Why bring this shame upon my home?
If you wish, my love, ho ho ho,
If you wish, bring your wedding band,
If you wish, bring your wedding band.
Oh, what to do, what to do,
This pale-skinned lad, so bold and bright.

Is this the way of my beloved's heart?
I'll drown myself, and play my part.
Oh ho ho, oh ho ho
May your foes drown, in watery art,
Come close, embrace, and play your part.
Oh ho ho, oh ho ho
Good to the good, and bad to the bad,
He speaks such words, that make me sad.
Ah ah ah ah, so promise now,
You'll never hurt me, anyhow,
So promise now, you'll never hurt me, anyhow.
I'll hurt, or else, ah ah ah,
I'll hurt, or else, take seven vows now,
I'll hurt, or else, take seven vows now.
Oh, what to do, what to do,
This pale-skinned lad, so bold and bright,
He defies my every right.
Before the world, he holds my hand,
A foe, I cannot understand.
Oh, what to do, what to do,
I've tasted no bhang, no liquor true,
Only love, no stolen deed,
Why fear, why fear, plant this seed?
This pale-skinned lad, so bold and bright.
