aji o zara apni nigaho ko sambhalo
chhin leti hai dil mera
aji o zara apni nigaho ko sambhalo
chhin leti hai dil mera aji o

dilruba pyar me tune jo dekha
le gayi chhin ke dil mera
bola kahi lahra na jaye
dil se dil takra na jaye
aji o zara apni nigaho ko sambhalo
chhin leti hai dil mera aji o aji oo oo

mehjabi hotho ke jam pila de
dekh jara naazani jamana hai kharabi
ek nazar me milkar
jhum raha hai dil diwana aji o

ae sanam dekh jara matwale
ae meri jan pyar ke dil me shamme jalale
jane wafa dekh jara
mera dil bas me nahi hai
aji o zara apni nigaho ko sambhalo
chhin leti hai dil mera
aji o zara apni nigaho ko sambhalo
chhin leti hai dil mera aji o

Oh, gentle gaze, a sovereign thief,
My heart it steals, a swift relief.
Oh, gentle gaze, hold fast your sway,
My heart you steal, and slip away.

My love, the moment that you see,
My heart is stolen, wild and free.
The whispers warn, a tide that swells,
Lest heart from heart, in passion, dwells.
Oh, gentle gaze, a sovereign thief,
My heart it steals, a swift relief.

From ruby lips, a potion sweet,
The world ablaze, where shadows meet.
With one brief glance, a world anew,
My frenzied heart, it dances through.

My beloved, with eyes so bright,
In love's deep core, ignite the light.
Oh, soul of mine, let passion bloom,
My heart, it breaks beyond the room.
Oh, gentle gaze, a sovereign thief,
My heart it steals, a swift relief.
Oh, gentle gaze, hold fast your sway,
My heart you steal, and slip away.
