balma re haay, balma mori lat suljhaa de
balma mori lat suljhaa de
bindiyaa kho gai, kho gai, kho gai re
balma mori lat suljhaa de
balma mori lat suljhaa de

tujhko meri prit pukaare ye adhuraa geet pukaare
tujhko meri prit pukaare ye adhuraa geet pukaare
o mere nain hai bechain zaraa dekho ji
o mera pyaar hai majhdhaar zaraa socho ji
balma re haay, balma mori lat suljhaa de
balma mori lat suljhaa de

dil kaa pyara dil kaa vaasi
samjhe na zaalim baat zaraa si
dil kaa pyara dil kaa vaasi
samjhe na zaalim baat zaraa si
o tere pyaar ki sau baar kasam khaati hun
o tere naam pe dil thaam ke rah jaati hun
balma re haay, balma mori lat suljhaa de
balma mori lat suljhaa de

prit ne chhedi hai shahnaai
dil se ho gai dil ki sagaai
prit ne chhedi hai shahnaai
dil se ho gai dil ki sagaai
o mere pyaar kaa ye taar kabhi tute naa
o mere haath se ye haath kabhi chhute naa
balma re haay, balma mori lat suljhaa de
bindiyaa kho gai, kho gai, kho gai re
balma mori lat suljhaa de
balma mori lat suljhaa de

My Beloved, oh, Beloved, unravel my tresses,
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.
My bindi is lost, lost, vanished away,
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.

Your love calls out, this incomplete song, it calls,
Your love calls out, this incomplete song, it calls.
My eyes restless, restless, look and see,
My love adrift, in the deep, think of me.
My Beloved, oh, Beloved, unravel my tresses,
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.

Heart's darling, dweller of the heart's core,
You understand not this small thing I implore.
Heart's darling, dweller of the heart's core,
You understand not this small thing I implore.
A hundred times, I swear by your love's name,
To your name alone, my heart I tame.
My Beloved, oh, Beloved, unravel my tresses,
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.

Love's flute sings, a marriage of souls begun,
From heart to heart, our hearts are now one.
Love's flute sings, a marriage of souls begun,
From heart to heart, our hearts are now one.
May this thread of love, never break apart,
May my hand never lose hold of your heart.
My Beloved, oh, Beloved, unravel my tresses,
My bindi is lost, lost, vanished away,
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.
Beloved, my tresses, untangle them now.
