dekho ji, mera jiya churaae liye jaye
dekho ji, mera jiya churaae liye jaye
jiya churaae liye jaye
dekho ji, mera jiya churaae liye jaye

naam naa jaanu, dhaam naa jaanu
naam naa jaanu, dhaam naa jaanu
kya hoga anjam naa jaanu
mann panchhi ghabraaye
ae ri mera jiya churaae liye jaye
dekho ji, mera jiya churaae liye jaye

nain kahe ham ne dhan paaya
man kose mohe kiya paraaya
nain kahe ham ne dhan paaya
man kose mohe kiya paraaya
prit thumak muskaaye
ae ri mera jiya churaae liye jaye
jiya churaae liye jaye
dekho ji, mera jiya churaae liye jaye

rasiya sadhu, kar gaya jaadu
rasiya sadhu, kar gaya jaadu
naa tan pe naa man pe kaabu
dhuni ramaa ke bharmaaye
ae ri mera jiya churaae liye jaye
dekho ji, mera jiya churaae liye jaye

Behold, my soul, they steal it away,
Behold, my soul, they steal it away,
My soul, stolen away,
Behold, my soul, they steal it away.

I know not the name, nor the abode,
I know not the name, nor the abode,
I know not the ending, the way it will go,
My heart-bird, it trembles with dread,
O friend, my soul, they steal it away,
Behold, my soul, they steal it away.

My eyes declare, "We have found our wealth,"
My mind condemns, "It has made me estranged,"
My eyes declare, "We have found our wealth,"
My mind condemns, "It has made me estranged,"
Love dances and smiles with glee,
O friend, my soul, they steal it away,
My soul, stolen away,
Behold, my soul, they steal it away.

The mystic lover, he cast a spell,
The mystic lover, he cast a spell,
No control over body, nor mind,
He kindles his fire, and bewilders,
O friend, my soul, they steal it away,
Behold, my soul, they steal it away.
