nind churaye, chain churaye, daka dale teri bansi
nind churaye, chain churaye, daka dale teri bansi
are din dahade are din dahade chori kare
raat bhar jagaye, daka dale teri bansi
ho nind churaye chain churaye, daka dale teri bansi

man me lage aise agan, jaise chamake bijuriya badal me
man me lage aise agan, jaise chamake bijuriya badal me
chup ke kabhi le jayungi, teri bansi chhupake aanchal me
kahe sham dhale kahe sham dhale kadam tale, mujhko bulaye
daka dale teri bansi
ho nind churaye chain churaye, daka dale teri bansi

samajhi thi mai, natkhat hai tu bas makhan churaya karta hai
samajhi thi mai, natkhat hai tu bas makhan churaya karta hai
diwani mai na janey too kahe panaghat pe aaya karta hai
mohe laj aaye mohe laj aaye hay nahi baat kahi jaye
daka dale teri bansi
nind churaye chain churaye, daka dale teri bansi

bansi ki dhun sunake piya jiya mera kahi kho jata hai
bansi ki dhun sunake piya jiya mera kahi kho jata hai
mai kya kahu, kya na kahu, mohe na janey kya ho jata hai
git prit bhare git prit bhare gaye, sudh budh bisaraye
daka dale teri bansi
o nind churaye chain churaye daka dale teri bansi
are din dahade are din dahade chori kare, raat bhar jagaye
daka dale teri bansi, oh daka dale

She steals my sleep, she steals my peace, her flute, a robber bold,
She steals my sleep, she steals my peace, her flute, a robber bold.
She robs by day, she robs by day, a thief of light untold,
And keeps me waking through the night, her flute, a story told.
Oh, she steals my sleep, she steals my peace, her flute, a robber bold.

A fire ignites within my soul, as lightning strikes the cloud,
A fire ignites within my soul, as lightning strikes the cloud.
I'll steal away, and hide her flute, within my garment's shroud.
As twilight falls, as twilight falls, beneath her call I bowed,
Her flute, a robber bold.
Oh, she steals my sleep, she steals my peace, her flute, a robber bold.

I thought you were a playful rogue, just stealing butter's art,
I thought you were a playful rogue, just stealing butter's art.
I know not why, a crazy love, you come to me and start
A blush within, a blush within, a secret in my heart,
Her flute, a robber bold.
She steals my sleep, she steals my peace, her flute, a robber bold.

Upon her flute's sweet melody, my heart begins to roam,
Upon her flute's sweet melody, my heart begins to roam.
I know not what, I cannot speak, a strange feeling at home,
Love's songs she sings, love's songs she sings, my senses overthrown,
Her flute, a robber bold.
Oh, she steals my sleep, she steals my peace, her flute, a robber bold.
She robs by day, she robs by day, a thief that holds me prone,
And keeps me waking through the night, her flute, a love well-known,
Her flute, oh, a robber bold.
