dil ka qarar le gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa
mitha mitha pyar de gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa
dil ka qarar le gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa

jab jab aankh ladi jhuk jhuk ke najar ne salam kiya
jab jab aankh ladi jhuk jhuk ke najar ne salam kiya
dhak dhak dil dhadka hatho ne kaleja tham liya
oye aahe besumar de gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa
dil ka qarar le gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa

duniya ki najro se koi kab tak najar bchayega
duniya ki najro se koi kab tak najar bchayega
chhup chhup kar jalim koi kab tak teer chalayega
koi dhokha har baar de gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa
dil ka qarar le gaya ek ladka bhola bhala sa

A boy, so naive, stole the heart's peace,
A boy, so naive, gave love's sweet release.
A boy, so naive, stole the heart's peace.

Each glance met, eyes dipped, a humble salute,
Each glance met, eyes dipped, bearing forbidden fruit.
My heart thumped, hands clutched, fear's desperate root.
Oh, sighs unending, from a boy, so naive,
A boy, so naive, stole the heart's peace.

From the world's gaze, how long can one hide?
From the world's gaze, where secrets reside?
How long can the cruel one, arrows abide?
A cheat, each time, from a boy, so naive,
A boy, so naive, stole the heart's peace.
