he makhmali badan tur pyar ki agan tur
are makhmali badan tur pyar ki agan tur
bura hai jawani ka nasha hay
bura hai jawani ka nasha aaja dilbar
aaja dilbar aaja dilbar aake mere
dil ki pyas bujha

makhmali badan tur pyar ki agan tur
bura hai jawani ka nasha hay
bura hai jawani ka nasha hay

ho chalka de jaam tere hi naam
are chalka de jaam tere hi naam
rangin ye raat aayi chaya surur
masti me chur mai mai bin piye dagmagai
mahfil sari mahfil sari husn ki pyasi
badta jae nasah ami ghabrau gir na jau
mujhko tham zara aah makamli
makhmali badan tur are pyar ki agan tur
makhmali badan tur pyar ki agan tur
bura hai jawani ka nasha hay hay
bura hai jawani ka nasha

kacchi kali hay jab se khili haan
kacchi kali jab se khili
har dil me kante chubhae
aisa laga mera shabab bhavro ko pagal banaye
mujhko ghere mujhko ghere dil ke lutere
vaise jaal bicha aaja aake inse bacahke
door kahi le jaa he makhmali
makhmali badan tur are pyar ki agan tur
makhmali badan tur pyar ki agan tur
bura hai jawani ka nasha hay hay
bura hai jawani ka nasha

aaja dilbar aaja dilbar are
aaja dilbar aake mere dil ki pyas bujha
makhmali badan tur pyar ki agan tur
bura hai jawani ka nasha hay
bura hai jawani ka nasha

Oh, velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
Oh, velvet body, the fire of love's sting.
This intoxication of youth, alas, is a curse,
This intoxication of youth, oh love, come to me.
Come, my love, come, my love, and quench
The thirst that burns within my heart.

Velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
This intoxication of youth, alas, ah, ah, ah,
This intoxication of youth.

Let the wine overflow in your name,
Let the wine overflow in your name.
This night, painted with hues, has come,
A shadow of intoxication, I, lost in ecstasy.
Drunk without a sip, I stumble and sway,
The entire gathering, the entire gathering, thirsts for beauty.
The intoxication rises, I fear, lest I fall,
Hold me gently, ah, velvet...
Velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
Velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
This intoxication of youth, alas, ah,
This intoxication of youth.

A raw bud, ah, since it bloomed, yes,
A raw bud since it bloomed,
Has pierced thorns into every heart.
It feels as though my youth makes the bees mad.
They surround me, they surround me, heart's robbers,
They cast their nets, come, and save me from them,
Take me far away, oh, velvet...
Velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
Velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
This intoxication of youth, alas, ah,
This intoxication of youth.

Come, my love, come, my love, oh,
Come, my love, and quench the thirst within my heart.
Velvet body, the fire of love's sting,
This intoxication of youth, alas,
This intoxication of youth.
