A fair face, a shawl, jet beads entwined,
My heart, alas, it aches and finds,
My heart, it is plundered, lost and blind.
A fair face, a shawl, jet beads entwined,
My heart, alas, it aches and finds,
My heart, it is plundered, lost and blind.
Your turban, a rainbow, a sight so grand,
My heart, in adornment, feels unmanned,
My heart, it is plundered, across the land.
Your turban, a rainbow, a sight so grand,
My heart, alas, it aches and finds,
My heart, it is plundered, lost and blind.

Fair maiden, why do you sway and stride?
Where wander you, with such graceful pride?
I faint in your wake.
Fair maiden, why do you sway and stride?
Where wander you, with such graceful pride?
I go, my love, to report the crime,
My heart, escapes, in the course of time,
My heart, it is plundered, in its prime.
A fair face, a shawl, jet beads entwined,
My heart, alas, it aches and finds,
My heart, it is plundered, lost and blind.
Your turban, a rainbow, a sight so grand,
My heart, in adornment, feels unmanned,
My heart, it is plundered, across the land.

Fair maiden, your gaze, a diamond's gleam,
Your throat, like a Kashmir apple's dream.
Fair maiden, your gaze, a diamond's gleam,
Your throat, like a Kashmir apple's dream.
Oh, beloved, abandon this artful guise,
Let me speak the truth, before my eyes,
Oh, handsome rogue, you've cast your ties,
My heart, it is plundered, by your lies.
A fair face, a shawl, jet beads entwined,
My heart, alas, it aches and finds,
My heart, it is plundered, lost and blind.
Your turban, a rainbow, a sight so grand,
My heart, in adornment, feels unmanned,
My heart, it is plundered, across the land.

Tell me, fair maiden, who taught you this theft?
Tell me, fair maiden, who taught you this theft?
My kin, they are bandits, a life bereft,
They taught me this art, in their stealth,
I, so innocent, by their words, I felt,
My heart, it is plundered, as I have knelt.
A fair face, a shawl, jet beads entwined,
My heart, alas, it aches and finds,
My heart, it is plundered, lost and blind.
Your turban, a rainbow, a sight so grand,
My heart, in adornment, feels unmanned,
My heart, it is plundered, across the land.
