hatho me kitab balo me gulab karna hai aaj kisi ka hisab
meri jaan irada kya hai ha meri jaan irada kya hai
hatho me kitab balo me gulab karna hai aaj kisi ka hisab
meri jaan irada kya hai ha meri jaan irada kya hai

kar ja jara nazar se baat muh na fira ada ke sath
kar ja jara nazar se baat muh na fira ada ke sath
julafo ko de na jhtaka julafo me dil hai ataka
bahut din bite akele jite roj nahi taal yaaro ka sawal
piche lage aaj hua aada saal
meri jaan irada kya hai meri jaan irada kya hai

uf ye teri lachkati chaal dil ka mere bura hai haal
uf ye teri lachkati chaal dil ka mere bura hai haal
thoda sa ruk ke hans ja matlab ye hai ke fas ja
bahut din bite akele jite kate nahi raat bane nahi baat
jaga jaga pyar mange tera sath
meri jaan irada kya hai ha meri jaan irada kya hai

yu bhi kisi ka degi sath mehandi rachegi tere hath
yu bhi kisi ka degi sath mehandi rachegi tere hath
hona to hai parayi mujh me hai kya burayi
bahut din bite akele jite tera ye gulam puche dil tham
razi hai to bol bheju paigam
meri jaan irada kya hai ha meri jaan irada kya hai

hatho me kitab balo me gulab karna hai aaj kisi ka hisab
meri jaan irada kya hai ha meri jaan irada kya hai

With book in hand, a rose in hair,
Tonight, a reckoning to share.
My love, what is your heart's desire?
Yes, my love, what lights your fire?

Speak to me with eyes so deep,
Do not turn away, your secrets keep.
Speak to me with eyes so deep,
Do not turn away, your secrets keep.
Don't toss your tresses, dark and sweet,
For in those locks, my heart does beat.
Too long I've lived, a lonely plight,
Each day I stall, the friends' delight.
They press me now, this passing year,
My love, what is your heart's desire?
Yes, my love, what lights your fire?

Oh, your swaying, graceful stride,
My heart within, it cannot hide.
Oh, your swaying, graceful stride,
My heart within, it cannot hide.
Pause a moment, laugh with glee,
Implies surrender, utterly.
Too long I've lived, a lonely state,
The nights are long, the words elate.
Wide awake, love craves your hold,
My love, what is your heart's desire?
Yes, my love, what lights your fire?

Will you share your life with one?
Henna on your hands will run.
Will you share your life with one?
Henna on your hands will run.
Though you must leave, and go afar,
What wrong can I become, my star?
Too long I've lived, alone I've been,
Your slave now asks, heart held within.
If you agree, I'll send the plea,
My love, what is your heart's desire?
Yes, my love, what lights your fire?
With book in hand, a rose in hair,
Tonight, a reckoning to share.
My love, what is your heart's desire?
Yes, my love, what lights your fire?
