A fair face, a scarf, pearls dark as night, my heart, oh,
stolen, stolen away.
A fair face, a scarf, pearls dark as night, my heart,
stolen, stolen away.
Your turban, a rainbow, it charms, it enthralls, my heart,
sacrificed, stolen, stolen away.
Your turban, a rainbow, it charms, it enthralls, my heart,
stolen, stolen away.

Fair one, you walk so proud, where go you, all decked out? I die,
Fair one, you walk so proud, where go you, all decked out?
I take my beloved to the station, to write a report, my heart,
beware, alas, stolen away.
A fair face, a scarf, pearls dark as night, my heart, oh,
stolen, stolen away.
Your turban, a rainbow, it charms, it enthralls, my heart,
alas, stolen away.

Fair one, your eyes, diamonds bright, cheeks like Kashmir apples, oh,
Fair one, your eyes, diamonds bright, cheeks like Kashmir apples,
My love, abandon these games, let me tell you the truth,
Oh, handsome rogue, casting your spell, my heart,
they kept them, stolen, stolen away.
A fair face, a scarf, pearls dark as night, my heart, oh,
stolen, stolen away.
Your turban, a rainbow, it charms, it enthralls, my heart,
oh, beautiful, alas, stolen away.

Tell me, fair one, who taught you this theft? I die,
Tell me, fair one, who taught you this theft?
I have a connection with a bandit, he taught me to steal,
Knowing me naive, he taught me to steal, my heart,
beware, stolen, stolen away.
A fair face, a scarf, pearls dark as night, my heart, I die,
stolen, stolen away.
Your turban, a rainbow, it charms, it enthralls, my heart,
oh, beautiful, alas, stolen away.
Companion, oh, friend, oh.
