O, Maharaja, Maharaja, Maharaja, Maharaja,
I am the diamond, Kohinoor's gleam, a king's own dream,
I am his celestial delight.
Be the jeweler, enter my heart, come, come.
O, Maharaja, Maharaja.

I shimmer in azure and amber light,
Like lightning in skies of obsidian night.
I shimmer in azure and amber light,
Like lightning in skies of obsidian night.
Steal my heart with your gaze.
Cause a storm in the gathering, come, come.
O, Maharaja, Maharaja, Maharaja, Maharaja.

You'll search with lamps, beloved, yearning,
For a silken youth, never returning.
You'll search with lamps, beloved, yearning,
For a silken youth, never returning.
Come into the shadow of my tresses,
Color the nights, come, come.
O, Maharaja, Maharaja,

I am his celestial delight.
Be the jeweler, enter my heart, come, come.
O, Maharaja, Maharaja, Maharaja, Maharaja.
