koi aankh maare to seeti koi
koi chhalla de to anghuthi koi
han anghuthi koi han anghuthi koi
bandh kardi, bandh kardi sabhi ne dukaan

samajh me na aaye karun kya jatan
loon angadai ho dil mein mithi chubhan
han han mithi chubhan han han mithi chubhan
ho gayi har nazar, ho gayi har nazar baimaan
ho gayi har nazar baimaan
mohalle mein curfew laga

The day I bloomed, a dawn unknown,
The neighborhood, a curfew sown.
Lives offered up, a desperate plea,
The neighborhood, a decree.

Curfew's fallen, oh, curfew's hold,
Curfew's grip, a story told.
Curfew's shadow, a darkened land,
Curfew's touch, across the sand.

Yesterday, the market's gleam I sought,
Eyes met mine, a fever caught.
To kiss me now, to kiss me true,
A whistle's call, a promise new.
A ring, a token, offered then,
The shops all closed, by saddened men.
The shops all closed, the shutters drawn,
The neighborhood, a curfew born.
Oh, the neighborhood, the fear it spun,
Curfew's fallen, the day begun.
Curfew's fallen, a heavy toll,
Curfew's grip upon the soul.
Curfew's shadow, a darkened plight,
Curfew's touch, and endless night.

What sin was mine, I cannot tell,
A bud transformed, a blossomed spell.
A flower's form, a whispered sigh,
What remedy, beneath the sky?
A sweet unease, within my breast,
Each gaze a thief, a heart unblessed.
Each gaze a thief, a wicked eye,
The neighborhood, beneath the sky.
Oh, the neighborhood, the fear it spun,
Curfew's fallen, the day begun.
Curfew's fallen, a heavy toll,
Curfew's grip upon the soul.
Curfew's shadow, a darkened plight,
Curfew's touch, and endless night.

When I venture, in finery dressed,
All whisper, "Marvel, manifest!"
"A marvel bright, a sight to see!"
"A world of beauty, just for me!"
Some call me fire, a burning spark,
A bomb they say, igniting dark.
My home betrayed, by spying eyes,
The neighborhood, where sorrow lies.
Oh, the neighborhood, the fear it spun,
Curfew's fallen, the day begun.
Curfew's fallen, a heavy toll,
Curfew's grip upon the soul.
Curfew's shadow, a darkened plight,
Curfew's touch, and endless night.

The day I bloomed, a dawn unknown,
The neighborhood, a curfew sown.
Oh, the neighborhood, the fear it spun,
Lives offered up, the day begun.
Lives offered up, a desperate plea,
The neighborhood, a decree.
Oh, the neighborhood, the fear it spun,
Curfew's fallen, the day begun.
Curfew's fallen, a heavy toll,
Curfew's grip upon the soul.
Curfew's shadow, a darkened plight,
Curfew's touch, and endless night.
