o mere laal aa jaa
o mere laal aa jaa
tujh ko gale lagaa lun
dil me tujhe chhupaa lun
o mere laal aa jaa

o mere dil ke tukde
o maamta ke pyaare
o mere dil ke tukde
o maamta ke pyaare
sun le ke teri maan hai
zindaa tere sahaare
maan se tu kyon khafaa hai
aa mai tujhe manaa lun
dil me tujhe chhupaa lun
o mere laal aa jaa

tere liye hun paagal
aakhir ko maan hu teri
jag me rahe tu zindaa
ujade na god meri
ek baar apane haatho
dulhaa tujhe banaa lun
dil me tujhe chhupaa lun
o mere laal aa jaa

My ruby, come to me,
My ruby, come to me,
That I may hold you close,
And hide you in my soul.
My ruby, come to me.

My heart's own fractured gem,
Beloved of my love,
My heart's own fractured gem,
Beloved of my love,
Hear now, your mother lives,
Sustained by only you.
Why turn away from me?
Come, let me reconcile,
And hide you in my soul.
My ruby, come to me.

For you, I am unmoored,
For I am still your mother,
For you, I am unmoored,
For I am still your mother,
May you live long in this world,
May barrenness not be my fate.
Once more, with my own hands,
A groom I'll make of you,
And hide you in my soul.
My ruby, come to me.
