mehbuba mehbuba
shehro me se shehar suna bhai, shehar suna tha dilli
dilli shehar me chandani nam ki ladki mujhse mili
uski jhil si aankho me hai dil mera duba
bani wo meri, yahi wo meri
tu hai wo meri mehbuba
tu hai wo meri mehbuba, tu hai wo meri mehbuba
mehbuba mehbuba

maine tujhko dekha to
pehli najar me jaan liya
hai mera mehbub tu hi maine tujhe pehchan liya
maine tujhko dekha to
pehli najar me jaan liya
hai mera mehbub tu hi maine tujhe pehchan liya
khwabo aur khayalo ki galiyo me jisko dhundha
bana tu mera ha bani tu meri
bani mai teri mehbuba
bani mai teri mehbuba, bani mai teri mehbuba
shehro me se shehar suna bhai, shehar suna tha dilli
dilli shehar me chandani nam ki ladki mujhse mili
uski jhil si aankho me hai dil mera duba
bani wo meri, yahi wo meri
tu hai wo meri mehbuba
tu hai wo meri mehbuba, tu hai wo meri mehbuba
mehbuba mehbuba

mujhko ye parwah nahi
ab kya sabki marji hai
sabki marji ko chhodo yeh to rab ki marji hai
mujhko ye parwah nahi
ab kya sabki marji hai
sabki marji ko chhodo yeh to rab ki marji hai
ham dono key bich me ab naa aaye koyi duja
bani tu meri, bani mai teri
tu hi to meri mehbuba
mai hu wo teri mehbuba, tu hi to meri mehbuba
shehro me se shehar suna bhai shehar suna tha dilli
dilli shehar me chandani nam ki ladki mujhse mili
uski jhil si aankho me hai dil mera duba
bani wo meri, yahi wo meri
tu hai wo meri mehbuba
mai hu wo teri mehbuba, tu hai wo meri mehbuba

Beloved, Beloved

Of all the cities, Delhi, they say, a city I knew of old
In Delhi's heart, Chandni met me, a story to be told
In her lake-like eyes, my heart did drown, a captive, deep and true
She became mine, right there, she was mine,
You are my Beloved, through and through
You are my Beloved, you are my Beloved
Beloved, Beloved

When first I saw you, my heart knew
In that very glance, my beloved, I recognized you
When first I saw you, my heart knew
In that very glance, my beloved, I recognized you
In the lanes of dreams, in thought's embrace, I searched for you
You became mine, yes, you became mine,
I am your Beloved, it is true
I am your Beloved, I am your Beloved
Of all the cities, Delhi, they say, a city I knew of old
In Delhi's heart, Chandni met me, a story to be told
In her lake-like eyes, my heart did drown, a captive, deep and true
She became mine, right there, she was mine,
You are my Beloved, through and through
You are my Beloved, you are my Beloved
Beloved, Beloved

I care not now, what others say, their wills and their desires
Forget their wishes, it is God's decree that fuels love's sacred fires
I care not now, what others say, their wills and their desires
Forget their wishes, it is God's decree that fuels love's sacred fires
Between us, let no other come, no shadow to intrude
You are mine, I am yours,
You alone are my Beloved, it is true
I am your Beloved, you alone are my Beloved, it is true
Of all the cities, Delhi, they say, a city I knew of old
In Delhi's heart, Chandni met me, a story to be told
In her lake-like eyes, my heart did drown, a captive, deep and true
She became mine, right there, she was mine,
You are my Beloved, through and through
I am your Beloved, you are my Beloved, it is true
