teri aankh mastaani hai angur ka paani hai
are zara bach ke rahana goriye teri chadhati javaani hai
kahin se koyi aayega uda ke le jaayega
haan meri khilati javaani hai laharon ki ravaani hai
are zara bach ke rahana raaja dariya tufaani hai
yahaan jo koyi aayega isi mein beh jaayega

hari hari shishe vaale chudi khanaka ke
hire motiyon se jada kangana baja ke
tumjhako manaayunga haay dil mein basa ke
kahaan chali morani ke jaise balakha ke
kajara laga ke gajara saja ke
tera rang baadaami hai tera rup gulaabi hai
are zara bach ke rahana goriye teri chaal sharaabi hai
tujhe koyi dekhega fida ho jaayega
tujhe koyi dekhega fida ho jaayega
meri khilati javaani hai lehron ki rawaani hai
are zara bach ke rehna dariya toofaani hai
yahan jo koi aayega isi mein beh jaayega
yahan jo koi aayega isi mein beh jaayega

jhuki jhuki palakon mein din dhal jana
ghadi ghadi tera wada karke na aana
jhuki jhuki palakon mein din dhal jana
ghadi ghadi tera wada karke na aana
chhodo ab chhodo aji dil ko jalaana
chhodo ab chhodo dil ko jalaana
sara sara din intzaar krwana
wade pe na aana dil ko jalaana
kaise reh paaungi tanha mar jaaungi
banke ik din dulhan tere ghr aaungi

ke doli le ke aayega mujhe tu le ke jaayega
ke doli le ke aayega mujhe tu le ke jaayega
teri aankh mastaani hai angur ka paani hai
are zara bach ke rahana goriye teri chadhati javaani hai
kahin se koyi aayega uda ke le jaayega
kahin se koyi aayega uda ke le jaayega
haan meri khilati javaani hai laharon ki ravaani hai
are zara bach ke rahana raaja dariya tufaani hai
yahaan jo koyi aayega isi mein beh jaayega

Your eyes, a tavern’s sway, grape's sweet decree,
Oh, maiden, beware, your youth in ecstasy,
Someone will arrive, to whisk you far away,
My burgeoning youth, a current’s wild spree,
Oh, king, beware, the river’s stormy sea,
Who enters here, will drown eternally.

With bangles of green glass, their music bright,
With anklets studded, diamonds taking flight,
I’ll woo you, darling, and hold you in my light,
Where go you, swan, in your alluring might?
With kohl-lined eyes, and garlands in sight,
Your hue of almond, your rose-touched sprite,
Oh, maiden, beware, your walk a drunken bite,
Who sees you, surely, will find himself in plight,
Who sees you, surely, will find himself in plight,
My burgeoning youth, a current’s wild spree,
Oh, king, beware, the river’s stormy sea,
Who enters here, will drown eternally.
Who enters here, will drown eternally.

In lowering lashes, day begins to fade,
Each moment, your promise, again unmade,
In lowering lashes, day begins to fade,
Each moment, your promise, again unmade,
Leave it, oh leave it, this heart now swayed,
Leave it, oh leave it, this heart now swayed,
The whole long day, your absence is displayed,
Your broken promise, my heart decayed,
How shall I live, alone, I'll surely die,
A bride I'll be, one day, beneath your sky.

Your palanquin will come, you'll take me away,
Your palanquin will come, you'll take me away,
Your eyes, a tavern’s sway, grape's sweet decree,
Oh, maiden, beware, your youth in ecstasy,
Someone will arrive, to whisk you far away,
Someone will arrive, to whisk you far away,
My burgeoning youth, a current’s wild spree,
Oh, king, beware, the river’s stormy sea,
Who enters here, will drown eternally.
