ye kisne jaadu daala hai
tera rup hua matwaala hai
ye kisne jaadu daala hai
tera rup hua matwaala hai
humse na chupaao jaane jigar
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala hai

o julfe hai teri bikhri huyi
o surat hai teri nikhari huyi
tere pyar ki raato me kaala
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala hai

o ye patali kamar balkhaayi huyi
o ye neech najar sharmaayi huyi
jhume to hawa chaaye to ghata chhalke to nashe ka
chhalke to nashe ka pyala hai
humse na chhupaao jaane jigar
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala hai

o kya dhundh rahi hai tanhaayi
o toot rahi hai angadaayi
teri aankh sharaabi
teri aankh sharaabi kyu phadke
shayad koi aane wala hai
teri aankh sharaabi kyu phadke
shayad koi aane wala hai
humse na chupaao jaane jigar
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala
kuchh daal me kala kala hai
ye kisne ye kisne, ye kisne jaadu daala hai
tera rup hua matwaala hai
humse na chupaao jaane jigar
kuchh daal me kala kala

Who wove this spell, so deep,
That your form, a wildness, does keep?
Who wove this magic, unseen,
That your beauty, a vibrant sheen?
Beloved, hide nothing from me,
For shadows dance where darkness should be.
A darkness stirs, it cannot hide,
Something's amiss, deep inside.

Oh, your tresses, unbound and free,
Oh, your face, a blossoming tree.
In the nights of love, a secret untold,
A darkness lingers, brave and bold.
A hidden darkness, I perceive,
A secret in which you believe.

Oh, your slender waist, a graceful sway,
Oh, your downcast eyes that softly play.
If you dance, the air takes flight,
If you glance, the clouds bring night,
If you spill, a nectar flows,
If you spill, a drunken rose.
Beloved, hide nothing from me,
For shadows dance where darkness should be.
A darkness stirs, it cannot hide,
Something's amiss, deep inside.

Oh, what are you seeking, in solitude's keep?
Oh, why does your longing run deep?
Your eyes, they shimmer, drunk and bright,
Why does your soul take flight?
Perhaps a meeting, soon to be,
Perhaps someone, for you and me.
Why does your soul take flight?
Perhaps a meeting, soon to be,
Beloved, hide nothing from me,
For shadows dance where darkness should be.
A darkness stirs, it cannot hide,
Something's amiss, deep inside.
Who wove this, the magic's art?
That your form, has captured my heart?
Beloved, hide nothing from me,
A darkness stirs, for all to see.
