aaja meri jalpari
o tu kyu gumsum khadi
na mujhe tarsa gale se lag ja
milegi na phir ye ghadi
hey teri te
nindiya uda lunga main gauri teri te
nathni chura lunga main gauri
aaja meri jalpari
aaye haye jalpari

chandni ka rup tu
tu tu hain subah ki dhup tu
phuljhadi o meri phuljhadi
tu mujhse sharma na haye
tere ye gaal hain dahke huye
tere armaan hain bahke huye
tu meri ban ja main tera ho gaya
milegi na phir ye ghadi
hey teri te
nindiya uda lunga main gauri teri te
nathni chura lunga main gauri
aaja meri jalpari
haye mar java

ye ada ye bankpan re re
dushmane ja yu na ban
de de mujhe o gauri de de mujhe
tu dil ka nazrana haye
sanam gussa tera saccha nahi
yu mujhse ruthna accha nahi
najar to mila yu dur na ja
milegi na phir ye ghadi
hey teri te
nindiya uda lunga main gauri teri te
nathni chura lunga main gauri
aaja meri jalpari
o tu kyu gumsum khadi
na mujhe tarsa gale se lag ja
milegi na phir ye ghadi
hey teri te
nindiya uda lunga main gauri teri te
nathni chura lunga main gauri
haye aaja meri jalpari

Come, my mermaid, drift to me,
Why stand silent, lost at sea?
Do not torment, embrace, enfold,
This moment's gold, will never be sold.

Hey, your sway,
I'll steal slumber from your day,
Your nose ring, I'll steal away,
Come, my mermaid, come this way.

Moonlight's form, the dawn's embrace,
Sparkler bright, with sunlit grace,
Do not blush, oh, maiden fair,
Your cheeks aflame, beyond compare.
Your desires, a restless tide,
Be mine, and forever abide,
This moment's tide, will never be sold.

Hey, your sway,
I'll steal slumber from your day,
Your nose ring, I'll steal away,
Come, my mermaid, oh, I'll fade.

This charm, this playful art,
Do not be, a foe to heart,
Give to me, oh maiden give,
Your heart's sweet gift, that I may live.
Beloved, anger's not true,
To spurn me thus, I plead with you.
Meet my gaze, do not flee afar,
This moment's star, will never be sold.

Hey, your sway,
I'll steal slumber from your day,
Your nose ring, I'll steal away,
Come, my mermaid, come this way.

Come, my mermaid, drift to me,
Why stand silent, lost at sea?
Do not torment, embrace, enfold,
This moment's gold, will never be sold.

Hey, your sway,
I'll steal slumber from your day,
Your nose ring, I'll steal away,
Come, my mermaid, oh, come to me.
