kahe chakori he chand he chand tum chit chor
he chand tum chit chor
bujhe kabhi na prem ki jyot prem ki jyot
he chand tum chit chor he chand tum chit chor

teri chamak se chamak rahe hai
mere nain nagariya tere hi gun gau sahar se
teri kiran chunariya naino ki alak palak lutere
chavi mai rahi bator he chand tum chit chor
he chand tum chit chor

naino ke ek tar tuhi hai naino ke upkar tuhi
sare jag ka ram tuhi hai seeta ka singar tuhi
teri kirno ke phulware jhume pyare
he chand tum chit chor he chand tum chit chor

The moon, you thief of hearts, the moon,
A thief of hearts,
You never quench the fire of love,
Of love,
The moon, you thief of hearts, the moon,
A thief of hearts.

Your glimmer paints my world anew,
My eyes, your city, sing your praise,
From dawn to dusk,
Your rays, a silken veil,
Steal glances from my lashes,
I gather your image near,
The moon, you thief of hearts,
A thief of hearts.

The thread within my eyes, you are,
The blessing of my sight, you are,
The Rama of the world, you are,
Sita's adornment, you are,
Your sunlit gardens sway, beloved,
The moon, you thief of hearts,
A thief of hearts.
