balam ho balam ji ye kya jadu dara
ho balam ji ye kya jadu dara
jiya nhi lage hiya nhi lage
jiya nhi lage hiya nhi lage
o tore kare naina chura lege chaina re
uda lege nidiya balam ho balam ji
ye kya jadu dara ho balam ji

ho ghughat me muskurake kahe dola man bhaya
ghughat me muskurake kahe dola man bhaya
nanhe seth dil par kahe chup kar war chalaya
jobna dikhakar gori kahe ko hame mara
balam ho balam ji ye kya jadu dara
ho balam ji ye kya jadu dara

jiya nhi lage hiya nhi lage
jiya nhi lage hiya nhi lage
o tore kare naina chura lege chaina re
uda lege nidiya balam ho balam ji
ye kya jadu dara ho balam ji

ho dekha surtiya tori raja manwa mora dole
dekha surtiya dekha surtiya tori
raja manwa mora dole fula fula pet tihara
fula fula pet tihara dar sa mohe lage
dur dur tak babu mohe tu nhi lage pyara

balam ho balam ji ye kya jadu dara
ho balam ji ye kya jadu dara
jiya nhi lage hiya nhi lage
jiya nhi lage hiya nhi lage
o tore kare naina chura lege chaina re
uda lege nidiya balam ho balam ji
ye kya jadu dara ho balam ji

My love, my love, what spell have you cast?
My love, what magic is this you amassed?
My spirit cannot settle, my heart finds no rest,
My spirit cannot settle, my heart, dispossessed.

Your dark eyes, they steal my peace,
They snatch away all sleep, release.
My love, my love, what spell have you spun?
My love, what magic has begun?

Behind the veil, a smile, a heart's delight,
Behind the veil, where shadows take flight.
A mischievous trick, a secret attack,
Your youth on display, why do you turn back?
Why slay me with beauty, with curves that entice?
My love, my love, what spell, what device?
My love, what magic is this you amassed?
My love, what magic has begun?

My spirit cannot settle, my heart finds no rest,
My spirit cannot settle, my heart, dispossessed.
Your dark eyes, they steal my peace,
They snatch away all sleep, release.
My love, my love, what spell have you spun?
My love, what magic has begun?

When I see your face, my king, my heart takes wing,
When I see your face, my king, my heart does swing.
Your belly so round, a blossoming swell,
Your belly so round, a fear I can't quell.
Far, far away, dear sir, you do not seem fair.

My love, my love, what spell have you cast?
My love, what magic is this you amassed?
My spirit cannot settle, my heart finds no rest,
My spirit cannot settle, my heart, dispossessed.
Your dark eyes, they steal my peace,
They snatch away all sleep, release.
My love, my love, what spell have you spun?
My love, what magic has begun?
