je ham tum chori se bandhe ek dori se
jayiyo kahaan ai huzur
je ham tum chori se bandhe ek dori se
jayiyo kahaan ai huzur

Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?
This is the bond of love, you see,
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?

Kajal-eyed one, why do you gaze so?
Kajal-eyed one, why do you gaze so?
This glance, oh fair one, means all I know,
The meaning is one, the eyes' cry.
Bound, you and I, oh love,
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?

See, the clouds arrive, the wind calls,
See, the clouds arrive, the wind calls,
My love triumphs, my naive beloved falls,
The game of winning and losing will now embrace.
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?

From the veil, your face appears, still veiled,
From the veil, your face appears, still veiled,
Come to my arms, let union be unveiled,
This meeting, not just once, it prevails.
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?
Bound, you and I, by a stolen thread,
Where will you go, my love?
