Lost, lost, lost, forever lost, lost,
Lost, lost, lost, completely lost.
Oh, my nose ring, lost beneath the neem,
Lost, lost, lost, all is lost.
Why did I wander, evening falling, 'neath the neem?
Lost, lost, lost, everything is lost.
I was alone, no one to be near,
A rogue seized, nine hands held me here.
In the struggle, darkness did appear,
Oh, my nose ring, lost beneath the neem,
Lost, lost, lost, utterly lost.

Lost, my golden nose ring, night descends,
Above me, above, my reputation rends.
Alas, fear consumes, what fate now lends?
Lost, my golden nose ring, night descends,
Above me, above, my reputation rends.
Alas, fear consumes, what fate now lends?
Oh, Ram, what helplessness I see,
Tears in my eyes, laughter mocks me.
I sit and ponder, the tale ablaze,
A stain upon my youthful days.
Alas, my nose ring, lost beneath the neem,
Lost, lost, lost, utterly lost.
Why did I wander, evening falling, 'neath the neem?
Lost, lost, lost, completely lost.

I went beneath the stars, Allah above,
It flared, it spread, a fire of love,
The village enemy, waiting, their hearts of dove.
