sapnon me khoyi, khatiya pe leti
bairi ne dheere se, haan dheere se
bairi ne dheere se kheenchi hai choti
turu ru ru ru, turu ru ru ru
turu ru ru tatta tatta tatta tatta ta
julmi re julmi

chupke se meri o meri
chupke se meri khisak gayi bindiya
julmi re julmi uchat gayi nindiya
julmi re julmi uchat gayi nindiya haaye

pyaari hai, pyaari hai
pyaari hai, pyaari hai kehta hai pyaari hai
choom ke ankhiya chutki maari hai
pyaari hai, pyaari hai kehta hai pyaari hai

Lost in dreams, upon a cot I lay,
The foe, so softly, oh, so gently,
The foe, so softly, pulled my small form.
Turu ru ru ru, turu ru ru ru,
Turu ru ru tatta tatta tatta tatta ta.
Cruel one, oh cruel one!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Secretly, mine, oh mine,
Secretly, my bindi slipped away!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled! Alas!

Beloved, beloved,
Beloved, beloved, he says I'm beloved,
Kissing my eyes, a pinch he gave!
Beloved, beloved, he says I'm beloved,
Kissing my eyes, a pinch he gave!
My love, a player, a liar, a liar,
My heart, stolen, stolen by the thief!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, alas!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Secretly, mine, oh mine,
Secretly, my bindi slipped away!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled! Alas!

Yours am I, yours am I,
Yours am I, yours am I, filled with love,
See, how essential I am for you!
Am I not essential?
Yours am I, yours am I, filled with love,
See, how essential I am for you!
Good am I, bad am I, yours am I, yours am I,
Dark am I, fair am I, yours am I, yours am I!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, what have you done, dear one?
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Secretly, mine, oh mine,
Secretly, my bindi slipped away!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled!
Cruel one, oh cruel one, sleep has fled! Alas!
