haye hangama lut gaya baba jam gaya sara drama
mil ke gaye sare gama mai bhi raji tu bhi raji
jamke khele pyar ki baji tu meri rani mai tera raja
aaja aaja paas to aaja milke bajaye pyar ka baja
aaja aaja hosh uda ja pyas bujha ja
aaja aaja aaja aaja aaja aaja aaja aaja
aai aai ya aai aai ya aai aai ya

For how long, this heart, a desert yearning,
For how long, this heart, a thirst unburning?
Now, draw near, oh, lest I fade,
Accounting done, a life unmade.
For how long, this heart, a desert yearning?
Now, draw near, my soul returning.

Embrace me close, enfold me deep,
Within your essence, let me sleep.
I-yai-ya, I-yai-ya, I-yai-ya.
It's time for romance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for dance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for romance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for dance, I-yai-ya. What a chance!
For how long, this heart, a desert burning?
Now, draw near, my soul returning.

Such chances bloom, not every day,
Such rapture bright, will not hold sway.
Such chances bloom, not every day,
Such rapture bright, will not hold sway.
Let the intoxication, fully play,
Then senses wake, at break of day.
It's time for romance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for dance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for romance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for dance, I-yai-ya. Dance, darling, dance!
For how long, this heart, a desert burning?
Now, draw near, my soul returning.

Oh, so many nights, a dying dream,
At last, delight, a vibrant gleam.
A night of love, has now begun,
Observe, the longing, softly spun.
A night of love, has now begun,
Observe, the longing, softly spun.
In whispered words, the night will run,
I-yai-ya, I-yai-ya, I-yai-ya.
It's time for romance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for dance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for romance, I-yai-ya.
It's time for dance, I-yai-ya.

Oh, the revelry, the world's undone,
The drama thrives, the games have spun.
All sing together, the notes we play,
I am content, as are you, this day.
Let love's game, brightly ignite,
You, my queen, I your knight.
Come close, come close, draw near to me,
Together we play our love's symphony.
Come close, come close, let all senses flee,
Quench the thirst, and set us free.
Come close, come close, come close, come close, come close, come close,
I-yai-ya, I-yai-ya, I-yai-ya.
