mashuka rubi mehbuba mehbubi
dekhoji dekho mujhe mai toh hu ajubi
sabki jawani meri najro me dubi
koyi naa janey aisi mujhme hai khubi
behke shikariyo se bachna bachana
hoto ke pyalo se angoori chhalkana
pyasi dilo ko aaye mujhe tadpana

Beloved, Ruby, my only love, my love,
Behold me, see me, I am the wonder, above.
Youth's tide drowns, reflected in my gaze,
A secret power, in my heart ablaze.
From lust's hunters, I must flee and hide,
From lips' chalices, the grape's fire inside.
To torment thirsty hearts, my fate is tied.

Beloved, Ruby, my only love, my love,
Behold me, see me, I am the wonder, above.
Youth's tide drowns, reflected in my gaze,
A secret power, in my heart ablaze.
From lust's hunters, I must flee and hide,
From lips' chalices, the grape's fire inside.
To torment thirsty hearts, my fate is tied.

Beneath the lashes, shadows sway,
My heart is trembling, what will the day say?
Beneath the lashes, shadows sway,
My heart is trembling, what will the day say?
A madman comes, a stranger's face,
A moth to flame, a killer's trace.

Beloved, Ruby, my only love, my love,
Behold me, see me, I am the wonder, above.
Youth's tide drowns, reflected in my gaze,
A secret power, in my heart ablaze.
From lust's hunters, I must flee and hide,
From lips' chalices, the grape's fire inside.
To torment thirsty hearts, my fate is tied.

Awake, or lost in sleep's embrace,
Lost, or found, in time and space,
Awake, or lost in sleep's embrace,
Lost, or found, in time and space,
The dawn proclaims, what will unfold,
The night has cast its spell of old,
Beware, be bold.

Beloved, Ruby, my only love, my love,
Behold me, see me, I am the wonder, above.
Youth's tide drowns, reflected in my gaze,
A secret power, in my heart ablaze.
From lust's hunters, I must flee and hide,
From lips' chalices, the grape's fire inside.
To torment thirsty hearts, my fate is tied.
