jitni dil ki baat chhupayi
utani hi wo samne aayi
are hay mohabbat teri duhai
oye mar gayi alla
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
oye mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
tu bhi chup main bhi chup
dil ki baate rakh dil me
tu bhi chup main bhi chup
dil ki baate rakh dil me
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
oye mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me

ek raaj chhupa ke dil me
aye hain bhari mahfil me
kaise kahu ji kaise kahu
aji kaise kahu ji kaise kahu
ek raaj chhupa ke dil me
aye hain bahri mahfil me
surat pe na ja, murat pe na ja
tofa hain chhupa sahil me
tofa hain chhupa sahil me
oy mar gayi alla
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
tu bhi chup main bhi chup
dil ki baate rakh dil me
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me

ye raah badi muskil hain
har mod pe ek katil hain
kaise kahu ji kaise kahu
aji kaise kahu ji kaise kahu
ye rah badi muskil hain
har mod pe ek katil hain
bahke na kadam, chal bach ke sanam
ki dur abhi manjil hain
ki dur abhi manjil hain
oy mar gayi alla
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
tu bhi chup main bhi chup
dil ki baate rakh dil me
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me

ye shokh ada matware
ye mast nazar kajra re
kaise kahu ji kaise kahu
aji kaise kahu ji kaise kahu
ye shokh ada matware
ye mast nazar kajra re
koi yaha mara, koi waha gira
sudh budh hi bisar gaye sare
sudh budh hi bisar gaye sare
oy mar gayi alla
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
tu bhi chup main bhi chup
dil ki baate rakh dil me
hay mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me
oy mar gayi alla
chhode de palla, baat badhegi mahfil me

The more the heart's tale concealed,
The more it rose, revealed.
Alas, love, your cries of woe,
Oh, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,
Oh, I am undone, and my heart's in hell.
You be silent, and I be too,
Keep the heart's secrets, just between us two.
You be silent, and I be too,
Keep the heart's secrets, just between us two.
Alas, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,
Oh, I am undone, and my heart's in hell.

A secret caged within my breast,
I came to this crowded fest.
How can I speak? Oh, how?
How can I speak, I vow?
A secret caged within my breast,
I came to this crowded fest.
Don't judge the face, nor the form you see,
A treasure hides within the sea.
A treasure hides within the sea.
Oh, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,
You be silent, and I be too,
Keep the heart's secrets, just between us two.
Alas, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,

This path is fraught with pain,
Each turn holds a killer's stain.
How can I speak? Oh, how?
How can I speak, I vow?
This path is fraught with pain,
Each turn holds a killer's stain.
Keep your footing, walk with care,
For the distant goal is there.
For the distant goal is there.
Oh, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,
You be silent, and I be too,
Keep the heart's secrets, just between us two.
Alas, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,

These playful ways, intoxicating grace,
These eyes, kohl-lined, in this place.
How can I speak? Oh, how?
How can I speak, I vow?
These playful ways, intoxicating grace,
These eyes, kohl-lined, in this place.
One falls here, one falls there,
Sense and reason disappear.
Sense and reason disappear.
Oh, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,
You be silent, and I be too,
Keep the heart's secrets, just between us two.
Alas, I am undone, Allah, I know.
Let go my veil, the crowd will swell,
Oh, I am undone, and my heart's in hell.
