laga ke hatho me mehndi halal kar dala
banaake mast mujhe hay! vaar kar dala

kisi ne mujhko mere ghar me aake lut liya
kisi ne mujhko mere ghar me aake lut liya
lut liya lut liya lut liya
kisi garib ko ghar me bulaake lut liya
kisi garib ko ghar me bulaake lut liya
lut liya lut liya lut liya
kisi garib ko ghar me bulaake lut liya

koi ummid na hasrat na kuch tamnna thi
andhera chaya tha dil ki duniya thi
chirag prem ka tum ne jalaake lut liya
chirag prem ka tum ne jalaake lut liya
lut liya lut liya lut liya
kisi ne mujhko mere ghar me aake lut liya
kisi ne mujhko mere ghar me aake lut liya

havas-o-hosh na rahte ye maajra hota
jo shakl dekh hi lete na jane kya hota
sada huzur ne apni sunaake lut liya
sada huzur ne apni sunaake lut liya
lut liya lut liya lut liya
kisi garib ko ghar me bulaake lut liya
kisi garib ko ghar me bulaake lut liya

zamane bhar se mai kah dungi tumne chori ki
aur aisi chori ki sinajori bhi
ki sone vale ko tune jagaake lut liya
ki sone vale ko tune jagaake lut liya
lut liya lut liya lut liya
kisi ne mujhko mere ghar me aake lut liya
kisi ne mujhko mere ghar me aake lut liya

With henna'd hands, a halal, a sacred theft,
And drunk with longing, a final, stunning cleft.
Within my walls, a raider found his prize,
Within my walls, a thief beheld my guise.
He plundered, plundered, a soul's surrender,
He called a beggar in, to sweetly render.
He called a beggar in, and stole my core,
He plundered, plundered, and asked for more.

No hope remained, no wish, no whispered plea,
A darkness draped the heart's immensity.
You lit the lamp of love, then turned to steal,
You lit the lamp of love, the wound to heal.
He plundered, plundered, a spirit broken,
Within my walls, the sacred word unspoken,
Within my walls, a theft of purest art.

I'd lose all sense, the world begin to fade,
Had I but seen your form, what else was made?
Your voice, a presence, stole my very all,
Your voice, a presence, witnessed my downfall.
He plundered, plundered, a soul forsaken,
He called a beggar in, his spoils to waken,
He called a beggar in, and seized my breath.

I'll tell the world, your thievery profound,
A brazen act, where truth is not unbound.
You woke the sleeper, then his treasure took,
You woke the sleeper, from his slumber shook.
He plundered, plundered, the depths to seize,
Within my walls, the theft that won't appease,
Within my walls, a theft of heart and soul.
