kyu khel preet ka kheli
main rah gayi akeli
balam mere beli
tu aa mil, ji udas hai
kyu khel preet ka kheli
main rah gayi akeli
balam mere beli
tu aa mil, ji udas hai

do din ka wada kar gaye gujare kayi mahine
yaad teri hai aisi bairan deti nahi hai jeene
waah re balma
tune aankhe pheri o sajna
o tune aankhe pheri o sajna
jaanwaro ne li li
main rah gayi akeli
tu aa mil, ji udas hai
kyu khel preet ka kheli
main rah gayi akeli
balam mere beli
tu aa mil, ji udas hai

ek ghadi bhi sukh na dekha
tum sang nain mila ke
tut gaye sab sapne mere baithi hu chain gawa ke
waah ri kismat
deti hai wasta tujhko bairiya
o deti hai wasta tujhko bairiya
ulfat nayi naveli
main rah gayi akeli
tu aa mil, ji udas hai
kyu khel preet ka kheli
main rah gayi akeli
balam mere beli
tu aa mil, ji udas hai

Why did you play love's game,
leaving me alone in flame?
My beloved, my kin,
come and meet, my spirit's dim.
Why did you play love's game,
leaving me alone in flame?
My beloved, my kin,
come and meet, my spirit's dim.

A promise of two days, now months have spun,
Your memory, a cruel one, my life undone.
Oh, my love,
your eyes have turned, my beloved one,
your eyes have turned, my beloved one,
life's taken by the sun,
leaving me alone, undone.
come and meet, my spirit's dim.
Why did you play love's game,
leaving me alone in flame?
My beloved, my kin,
come and meet, my spirit's dim.

Not a moment of joy have I known,
eyes met with yours, then all hope flown.
Shattered are all my dreams, my peace is gone,
Oh, Fate so unkind,
I implore you, my heart's bane,
I implore you, my heart's bane,
This fresh love, so frail,
leaving me alone, to wail.
come and meet, my spirit's dim.
Why did you play love's game,
leaving me alone in flame?
My beloved, my kin,
come and meet, my spirit's dim.
