naino ke teer chala gayi
naino ke teer chala gayi
ek shahar ki londiya shahar ki londiya
shahar ki londiya shahar ki londiya

dil pe nishana laga gayi
ho dil pe nishana laga gayi
ek shahar ki londiya shahar ki londiya
naino ke teer chala gayi

resham ki sadi thi chehra gulab tha
resham ki sadi thi chehra gulab tha
haye meri maiya haye meri maiya
haye meri maiya gazab ka sabab tha
haye meri maiya gazab ka sabab tha
ishk ka rog laga gayi
ho ishk ka rog laga gayi shahar ki londiya
sahar ki londiya naino ke teer chala gayi

gora gora rang gora gora rang
gora gora rang aur thoda thoda lal tha
aashiko ke fasne ko julfo ka jal tha
aashiko ke fasne ko julfo ka jal tha
karke ishara bhula gayi
ho karke ishara bhula gayi
ek shahar ki londiya sahar ki londiya
naino ke teer chala gayi

pairo tale uske aankhe bichhaunga
pairo tale uske aankhe bichhaunga
sau bar ruthe to ek bar
ek bar ruthe to sau bar manauga
ek bar ruthe to sau bar manauga
agar wo mere hath
agar wo mere hath aa gayi
ek shahar ki londiya shahar ki londiya
ha naino ke teer ha naino ke teer
naino ke teer chala gayi

Eyes launched arrows, a flight unseen,
Eyes launched arrows, a city's queen,
City's maiden, city's maiden,
City's maiden, city's maiden.

Piercing the heart, a targeted sting,
Piercing the heart, a love to bring,
City's maiden, city's maiden,
Eyes launched arrows, a love to sing.

Silk of her saree, a rose her face,
Silk of her saree, time and space,
Mother, my mother, mother, divine,
Mother, my mother, beauty's shrine.
Love's sickness she did impart,
Love's sickness, a brand on the heart,
City's maiden, city's maiden,
Eyes launched arrows, a work of art.

Fair was her skin, a tender hue,
Fair was her skin, kissed by the dew,
A trap of tresses, a lover's snare,
A trap of tresses, beyond compare.
With a gesture, then she fled,
With a gesture, the words unsaid,
City's maiden, city's maiden,
Eyes launched arrows, the heart misled.

Beneath her feet, my eyes I'll lay,
Beneath her feet, come what may,
If she should stray, a hundred times,
If she should stray, my soul that climbs,
I'd beg her pardon, with every breath,
If in my grasp, she welcomes death,
City's maiden, city's maiden,
Yes, the arrows, yes, the arrows,
Eyes launched arrows, in life's expanse.
