main doob doob jaata hun
sharbati teri aankho ki jhil si gahraayi me
sharbati teri aankho ki jhil si gahraayi me
main doob doob jata hun

phulo ko tune rangat de di suraj ko ujaala ujaala suraj ko ujaala
julfo se tune paani jhatka taaro ki ban gayi maala
dekho taaro ki ban gayi maala honth hai tere do paimaane
honth tere do paimaane paimaano ki masti me doob doob jaata hun
sharbati teri aankho ki jhil si gahraayi me
sharbati teri aankho ki jhil si gahraayi me
main doob doob jata hun

bhule se tu jo baag me jaaye
patta patta dole re dole patta patta dole
tirchhi nazre jidhar bhi phenke
bhadke sau shole re shole bhadke sau sau shole
gaal hai tere ha ha do angare hun hun
gaal hai tere do angaare angaaro ki garmi me doob doob jata hun
sharbati teri aankho ki jhil si gahraayi me
sharbati teri aankho ki jhil si gahraayi me
main doob doob doob jaata hun

I drown, I drown myself away,
In the lake-deep gaze of your eyes,
In the lake-deep gaze of your eyes,
I drown, I drown myself away.

You gave the flowers their hues,
the sun, its own bright light,
the sun, its own bright light.
From your tresses, you shook free the water,
becoming a garland of stars,
becoming a garland of stars.
Your lips, two measures of wine,
your lips, two measures of wine,
In the revelry of these measures, I drown,
I drown myself away,
In the lake-deep gaze of your eyes,
In the lake-deep gaze of your eyes,
I drown, I drown myself away.

If you should stray by chance into the garden,
each leaf, it sways and trembles,
each leaf, it sways and trembles.
Wherever you cast your sidelong glance,
a hundred flames erupt,
a hundred flames erupt.
Your cheeks, they are like two embers,
your cheeks, they are like two embers,
In the warmth of these embers, I drown,
I drown myself away,
In the lake-deep gaze of your eyes,
In the lake-deep gaze of your eyes,
I drown, I drown, I drown myself away.
